Remember that scene in American Pie 2 when Jason Biggs said to Willow "I am a band geek, I just never joined the band." (or something like that).

I've always felt that way about comic books - I've always been a comic book geek, I just never really read any comic books. Point being - I probably would have really gotten into them as a kid if they'd been around.

I did have all the Tintin comics and Asterix comics, but that was about it.


Anyway, there's a point to all this. Was listening to the Tavis Smiley show earlier and the segment was about how they're doing a Captain America series inspired, in a way, by the Tuskegee Experiments. It will be revealed that the original testing of the serum used to create Captain American was done on African Americans.

Well, anyway, I'm sure it'll piss off the usual suspects but it sounded cool to me.
