I have to confess, I've been reading mostly Marvel titles lately--mostly the Ultimate titles. My DC purchases have been limited to Teen Titans, the Flash, and the animated titles. What's going on with Crisis, and how can I keep up without spending a fortune I don't have?

Rex, have you ever even read a comic book before? Crisis would be DC and neither Foggy nor Spidey exist. My best advice for keeping up without going broke would be to either borrow the trade from someone or check it out from the local library.

Thats too difficult. I'd rather come here and ask about it without looking to see if there's any crisis threads already.

Crisis started when Chris Oakley punched reality in the face and discovered several alternate earths in which different versions of himself exist.

Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

Nuriko, I think there is a site where you can download all the Crisis issues if you have a comic reader program, but I know nothing about it.

Could someone here please tell me if I'm correct and provide a link?

You know what I love about torrent? You don't have to download separate updated files to get an optimized comic sourse. You just use the same torrent which is added to by the original uploader.

Noice.

You see, with P2P you wouldn't get such luxury.

PDF? That's crazy. Use CBR.

What's wrong with PDF?

CBRs take less space and are easier to read. Plus if you want you can change the extension to .rar and extract all the pages, like if you wanna use an specific page for something.

I agree with dad, but every rose has it’s thorn, just like every night has it’s dawn. And sadly, the gigatorrent Pariah was using only provided PDFs (is why it reached 5 gigs). The Sandman and Lucifer megatorrents at mininova.org are all CBRs though.

Also, I downloaded the House of M but after skimming through the key issues, realized it was crap and deleted the whole thing.

Where? There's so much stuff on the page, it isn't easy to find, even if I knew what I was looking for. :dumb:

Well done! Some things are not even worth free.
