Comics have words too, Kaftan. :D

What he said. Let's have a comic, Kaftan.
About my reading; here goes. I've recently taken a liking for my old Marvel comics(don't grin at me) and have read several, if not all, again. It's been five years so some of them are quite...lamey, not to mention somewhat cheesy, but fun in the "no need to think"-way. Some of the art is "marvelous".(if someone can tell me where to get a good explanation about what has been going on after the Onslaught-era, pm me) Books on the other hand have been on the second place until recently, when I had the change to visit something more major than my local book store.
I bought Frank Herbert's Dune, freakin' finally too. The book had been on my reading list for years, but I had never got to opening, not to mention buying, it. I've not gotten very far, but so far its been very good. Especially the wierd habits and traditions of the once-islamic-Zensunnis, the Fremen, are a highpoint of the book. I recommend reading. And get the game, Emperor: Battle for Dune too.
One of my pet peeves is reading Terry Pratchetts Discworld novels, and his paperbacks were especially cheap in Helsinki. Almost everything loses something when tranlated to my native, and I've taken a habit of reading, seeing and listening to everything in their original languages. The book, Soul Music was a hoot with all the inside jokes and scarcely hidden rock music nudges. And I love both Death and Susan as characters.
Then I got some Chomsky, but I'm sure that's a boring neough subject for not to bable about. To but it shortly; globalism and "neo-imperialism" are the subjects.
