1000 comics

Well, yesterday, while I was checking my comic book shelf I noticed that I already have 801 comic books. And I asked myself, How long will I take to reach one thousand?

So, as of this week, I'm going to post on this blog, pictures and numbers of the comic books I purchase so that everybody can see how long I take to reach one thousand.

What am I going to do with them, absolutely nothing, each of those comics represent something special to me, like my Batman 500, which was given to me by my older brother on a saturday morning I accompanied him to buy a new wireless phone. Or my Spectacular Spider-Man 533 that my grand mother gave to me as a surprise one afternoon I arrived from school, there she was, holding the comic, she remembered I liked Spider-Man my 88 year old Granny remembered that and got it for me.

An like those two, I have 801 memories, good and bad around my comics. There's a STAR-WARS Tales I purchased the day my ex-girlfriend dumped me, or The Amazing Spider-Mans I got while taking care of my Granny during her last year of life. Actually, I think my first hundred were all purchased by my Granny. So, I want to make you al part of the road to 1000 comics.

Girls&comics

Back in 1997, when I was 14 years old, there was not such a thing as a Comic book reading girl at my Junior High. Even in Highschool, I spent about one and a half year to find a friend who liked comics.

Thank God times have changed

Nowadays, women have taken a BIG role in the comic book industry. Every time I open my Twitter account I smile with the names @ComixBookGurl, @gimpnelly, @pseudicide, @elizabethamber, @girly_nerds (The first two of them my favorites) and if you browse the web you'll find a starwars fan club completely followed by women, how cool is that, (not to mention sexy).

If I knew that girls would become such great fans fourteen years after my first comic convention, and my initiation in comics, I wouldn't have belived it. But once mere thank God they have. And most of them are cuuute (for cuteness and cute girls in twitter, follow every girl mentioned on the previous paragraph).

I love Life, I love comics and I love girls who read comics.

Que verguenza!!

El día de hoy, la entrada no hablará de comic's, el día de hoy haremos una queja social.

En unos minutos se jugará el partido entre Pumas y Chivas en el Estadio Olímpico Universitario.
Con motivo del juego el periódico Reforma publicó una nota respecto a la situación que viven las autoridades de la delegación Coyoacán (DF) y las autoridades Universitarias con los miembros de la porra de los Pumas "La Rebel". Quien se ha convertido en la proovedora oficial de cerveza afuera del estadio en la entrada B de CU, y ha amenazado a ambas autoridades que de ser removidos de ahí, ampliarán su área de venta alrededor del estadio.

La semana pasada méxico vivió una marcha que le exigía a las autoridades mexicanas una mayor seguridad para el pueblo de México, porque nuestras autoridades se han olvidado del pueblo. Pero, parece que el pueblo también ha olvidado el respeto a nuestras autoridades. ¿Quiénes son los miembros de "La Rebel" que pueden exigirle a la delegación que los deje en paz o si no.... ? ¿Y porqué las autoridades les permiten hacer eso? ¿Por miedo? ¿Porqué la autoridad tanto universitaria como delegacional le teme a un grupo que su única función debe ser animar a un equipo en una justa deportiva? La Rebel es una porra, simplemente es eso.

Pero esto no se queda sólo con la porra azul y oro. La Universidad, Máxima Casa de estudios de México y Patrimonio Mundial, se está convirtiendo en un mercado por culpa de vendedores ambulantes que no quieren salirse de los terrenos universitarios "porque los obtuvieron en la Huelga de 1999 (Reforma 14 de Mayo 2011 primera plana).

No señores, es vergonzoso, exigimos a las autoridades de México en todos los niveles que hagan su trabajo y nsostros no la respetamos. y digo nosotros porque también somos parte del problema, yo lo soy cuando no deposito la basura en su lugar, cuando me paso el alto y digo, me vale el poli y le doy $200.00 para que no me infraccione. No, no, no. Yo no quiero ver a mi Universidad convertida en un mercado. Dr. Narro, que está haciendo Ud. para evitar que los ambulantes invadan la UNAM, que hace por evitar que "La Rebel" se sienta Al Capone y comercie alcohol afuera del estadio sin licencia para venderlo? Y Qué hacemos nosotros los Universitarios que lo permitimos también. Yo me quejo...y pido a otras personas que lo hagan también.

Orgullosamente UNAM.

Is there a comic book you held the dearest?


I've collected comic books for years. I have lot's of them, and I like them all. But, there is always a comic book that you like more than the others. For me It's Spider-Man 1 by Todd McFarlane.

The first time I heard about Todd, was in mexican comic convention Mecyf. Todd was invited to the convention and his Spawn comic book was given to every assistant as a gift. The comic had a biography of Todd's life in the first 9 or 10 issues. That's when he became my favorite artist, and I've remained true to Todd's work since. So in 1997 I started looking for every single comic drawn by him. It's been hard, so hard that I was able to get Spider-Man 1 about five years ago. It's the jewel of my collection. Next to my complete Knight Fall,Night Quest and Knights End collection.

What's your dearest comic book?
