I’ll tell you a secret - I never had money to buy comics as
a child. My family was poor, so the only thing I could do to enjoy comics (and
I do love them) was to read newspapers and online reviews of comics. Only after
I landed a job did I finally manage to buy all the comics I wanted... and get
myself into credit card debt, but that’s another story.
For years, in order to borrow comics from my geekier
friends, I faked it. I didn’t lie. I just faked it, and no other comics fans
figured it out. Or so I think.
