When I think of The Shadow, I think of superhero characters that are more noir than superhero. But that’s what…

August 5, 2009 4:29 pm Interesting article. Thanks.
August 5, 2009 3:31 pm @MisterJ - what about the exposure generated from pirating? People might actually pay for something they couldn't get their hands on or hear about otherwise.

For people sweating over the price: 

:) a giant discount and free shipping? I have to juggle the math to see where I would spend less money, and the savings don't look too great. Absolute Sandman costs 99 USD without discount in Amazon. Here it costs 500 NIS (128 USD) and I'd have to pay delivery because I'm miles from my LCS.

If I opt for Amazon's discount there's a big delivery fee, and customs to deal with. Appreciate what you have.

August 5, 2009 9:33 am @har13equin - also lying to your girlfriend isn't a good thing necessarily. If you don't like her and you're just staying with her because you enjoy it, thinking that she enjoys it as well, and that it will eventually end regardless so you won't have to commit, you're a bit of an ass in my book. But it seems like you like her. But I would whisper to her about her big butt after you put on the rings. She has a right to know.

@har13quin - in pirating people can benefit, due to people telling other people about the game, and some might buy and pay attention to that gaming company's products.

@ohcaroline - because you're nto stealing a physical copy and damaging a struggling business, rather copying something from a big faceless company, and you're not doing it all the time, and you can justify it by saying you already support comics enough, or that you'll pay for it in the future, or that you'll pay for it if you like it, and that you have rent, and you need to support your parents/sibligns etc.

August 4, 2009 10:16 pm It makes perfect sense. It sounds like a bitch slap. Krakoom sounds like a... cracked broom?
August 4, 2009 5:35 pm KRAKOOM doesn't make sense.
August 4, 2009 5:27 pm Stealing is okay, as long as it isn't done to you. There's an Hebrew saying: (loose translation) whoever steals from a thief is exempt. A lot of people steal, therefore it's okay to steal.
