Marvel!

I purchased this game called Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 (MUA2). It is, to use a 90's adjective, rad. I've been reading comics on and off pretty much since before I could read but haven't really for the last six years or so. I'll occasionaly see some comic related movie and want to start collecting them again, but then remember how desperatly poor and handsome I am and think the better of it. Anyway...

MUA2 is rad, like you can be thor and smash shit up with your hammer, then switch to spiderman and web stuff, then change to gambit and throw cards at people, laser things as iron man, etc etc. Total nerdgasm type stuff. Zap, web, punch, smash. Words cannot describe.. well I guess they can as that is what I am trying to do here, I'm sleepy and can only think in cliches, sorry. Well not really. Ummm so yea.

It was so much fun it somehow it tricked me into subscribing to marvels digital comic service. It lets you read old comics that have been scanned on line. I've spent the weeking reading the ultimates, moon knight, ms marvel, silver surfer. It's been... good? I'm out of words, sorry. Oh yea, MUA2 doesn't have silver surfer in it, or the punisher, or magneto, so it's pretty much missing heaps of good characters. Also there are new ones in it who I had never heard of. It insults me that marvel dare invent new characters rather than use the same ones they've been using for the past 50 years.

I didn't even spellcheck this post, aren't you lucky
