After watching Across the Spider-Verse I decided to attempt to keep up with the weekly comics again, we'll see how long it lasts. I just finished all the Marvel and DC releases for last week just in time for the new ones tomorrow lol Gonna take a bit to catch up on some storylines

Downloading, that'd be like $50 a week if I bought them all lol

Yeah I think they're like $4 an issue now, it's pretty absurd bc they can be so hit or miss. I actually live near a shop now though, but I'd only buy the collections once they're released over single issues

This is where I get them from, torrent download link is super fast. Today's week should be up sometime in the next few hours

Then I use comicrack to read them which is a free program

after I realized I was spending so much i joined a UK forum for comics kinda like that site where they would upload them every week and then I'd read them on a samsung tablet which was about the same size of an actual comic. worked out pretty well.

Only comic I have read in the last like 5 years is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle comics. I have the first 7 hardcover issues of the current run and I bought the hardcover book for The Last Ronin.

For awhile I was reading them on my phone which was nice even with the small screen bc it was optimized to show each panel not by page so I ended up actually focusing more and not skimming

 

[Brandon]

yeah if you buy the comics on like comixology they'll do that panel by panel stuff which makes it so much easier to read.

I think the apps like Marvel Unlimited do it as well now too.

They do, I've used both. I keep getting emails from Marvel Unlimited no matter how many times I unsubscribe

I've been wanting to get back to reading Comics once again. I'm pretty sure Chris gave me a Program to read Comics on my previous Laptop before I purchased the one I had. I think I remember I was using https://getcomics.org/ to Download Comics.

@Sasha I just read the first issue of the new Hulk series, it was really good and the new plotline setup looks fun

 

[Kairi HoHo]

All ready to start reading after getting all the stuff I need to read on my Laptop. So their a new Venom Comic so that is a must read for me, reading Spider-Man 2099 for the first time since my Middle School days, and Spawn reread for sure.
