So, gize. There's this thing called internet piracy or something like that. People tend to focus on mainly the music, film or teevee parts of it, but there is apparently a massive comics side of it too. Yeah, i know it was probably naive of me to be shocked that there was a buncha people with scanners stealin' comixxx so i could read 'em for free

Part of enjoying comics for me is the smell and feel of the paper, the physical posture of reading one, and the ritual of going to the neighborhood comic book store to buy them. I understand how tempting the whole digital comic piracy thing is, especially with how ridiculously expensive comics are at $3 per issue, but it just comes down to "Horty hate reading anything on a screen, especially comics." I can't even get through the 4-issue "Flex Mentallo" that I've had for years.

Incidentally, I've never enjoyed the ritual of going record shopping or going to record stores, and I actively hate going to places like Best Buy for DVD's and games, so I actually prefer to pirate those even when I can afford them.
