Nerd Hook Up Thread

i don't know either of those titles. the only image books i collect are savage dragon and shadowhawk

have you seen that carnage limited series yet? only the first issue has come out so far, and it's all painted artwork, it looks pretty awesome.

I have have not kept up with comics like I use too, but I will check it out. You should check out Danger Girl. It was all cheese, but in a good way!

 

[CarnageSIS]

i didn't know that! i figured if it was based on that you'd have said something when i'd talk about spider-man or comics

I got into Spiderman back in my early teens which is when I came up with the handle that I eventually used for signing up for Lit

It's been many years since I've kept up with the series of Spiderman or Venom, but Carnage will always be special to me Bout the only Spiderman stuff I follow lately is the movies, in a vain hope my fav super villain may someday get an accurate depiction on the big screen.

i always thought he was pretty cool, but i have to be honest that maximum carnage was a "jump the shark" moment for me with spider-man. i thought it ran way too long.

You know, I didn't read a whole lot of comics as a kid. I've read more lately, but I was always more into books. I started reading Wheel of Time in junior high.

I think he use to do Flash comics........ or at least Impulse. Then he had a creator owned vampire comic called Crimson. It came out the same time Battle Chasers and Danger Girl came out for Image.

Hell yeah! All three of those comics rocked! My best friend was obsessed with Crimson and collected every issue and a bunch of action figures. I actually found him a resin bust of Alex and am gonna give it to him for christmas

As for me, i have a few scattered comics, usually comics based off novels such as the icewind dale stuff and the first two issues of Magician: Apprentice. Was sad that magician didnt last, the art was awesome.

The only comic series I made the effort to collect all of was Tellos. I still reread it occasional and cry at the ONE issue i'm missing lol.

so yeah.. .wouldn't exactly call myself a comic book geek, but I've seen a few I liked.

Sorry to be late but better late than never.

nerd - An individual persecuted for his superior skills or intellect, most often by people who fear and envy him.

An 'individual', i.e. a person who does not conform to society's beliefs that all people should follow trends and do what their peers do. Often highly intelligent but socially rejected because of their obesssion with a given subject, usually computers. Unfortunately, nerds seem to have problems breeding, to the detriment of mankind as a whole.

Well, this is what the Urban Dictionary says about Nerds. I am not sure I am a Nerd or rather a Geek....well, I am a geek since I am into software development and also into music.....hmmm...may be I am a nerd too...

"Nerds are clearly superior to us in every way.. Let's worship them as our Gods"

Hey Mal! How's it going? Just got myself settled at work and trying to find out why a site isn't sending e-mail. I'm betting on a bad e-mail address, but we shall see.

 

[CarnageSIS]

Morning everyone. Last day of Regular class yay. Then just finals on monday then I'm free for the rest of the month.

Morning King and good luck on your finals

 

[Biggnthick]

Morning all. My only class for the day was canceled so I think i'm gonna track my friend down and beat the crap out of him with a nerf sword.

and btw, Boba was cool until he went out like a bitch. Shoulda put a killswitch on that jetpack. And no, I don't accept the novel ret-conning his death because then I'd have to accept all the other silly BS that the novels came up with.

I stopped reading SW Books sometime around The Crystal Star (which was weird.) I don't mind the KotOR comics, though.

Before the stupid series came out with the Yuuzhan Vong and then the series with Darth Caedus, most of the novels were actually pretty good. Not all, mind you, but most. I do really enjoy the Tales books, though, and the Tales of the Bounty Hunters book is where Boba gets out. That one was actually pretty well written.
