EPISODE 2: The attack of the comic books
- by Obi-Wayne-K
There is great unrest in the galactic senate. The great battle between the comic addicts and the book worms has left several worms squashed and other worms broken and shattered. Yet it seems that the worms still have a fight in them and they are gathering their forces for another battle. But with the great galactic Comic-Con coming up do these insects/low lives really stand a chance????
PS I can’t even compare this one to Rocky vs Apollo Creed Part 2 simply because at least Creed had some odds favoring him!!
6. Our Events: Ok on one side we have conventions full of fanboys being a part of massive cosplays, million dollar merchandise, celebrities pleading the fans to watch their movies, sneak previews and of course comic book releases taking place all over the world. On the other we have dull, boring literature festivals where has been celebrities show (and there is controversy), writers themselves don’t show because of controversies and all we have is wannabe chic crowd who deep inside their hearts know that even the goddamn Green Lantern movie would have been more interesting than the festival itself.
7. Power unlimited: We are the free mesons to your opus-dei. We are so powerful that we have infiltrated each and every of your so called institutions. I mean the places where you buy your books (that you preach), the very temple of your reflecting god, the SACRED BOOK STORE has a separate section selling comic books and comic merchandise(and yeah don’t worry d***heads we have our own comic book stores which will never in this living age ever have books/novels to showcase). Apart from this, the newspaper which morons so judicially follow has and will always be a canvas for great comic strips like Peanuts, Tarzan, Calvin and Hobbes etc.
8. People want to be comic addicts: there is this tv show you guys might have heard of it is ranked as CBS's highest-rated show of that evening in the adults 18–49 demographic (4.6/10), along with a then-series-high 12.83 million viewers, its actors have won several emmys and It is called the BIG BANG THEORY and what is it based on? 4 brilliant comic addicts! What you guys would have never heard of or seen is a tv show actually based on book worms. Not only this, we have done bookworms can never dream of doing: inspire a likable Hindi movie with a solid star-cast, Wake up Sid story of a comic addict (Ranbir Kapoor) . You want more, the so called best tv show called two and a half men where highest paid tv star on the show gets replaced by a character who is a comic addict( don’t believe me check out the episode where they show Walden’s old house) gets its highest ever ratings after the swap.
9. Quality of our products: In comparison to the usual books/novels the print quality, the paper quality and the texture (and definitely the content as well) is far far better. We actually justify the cutting of trees for paper. In fact it is humanly impossible to fall asleep while reading comics even it is an Archie’s in contrast to books where it actually takes microseconds to fall asleep while one is going through a tortuous read (the curse of the textbooks).
10 R-Rated: (Apart from a zillion things) This is one thing at which books will always suck. The very definition of R-rated material in books is so narrow and limited to only monotonously long description of foreplay or fornication occasionally accompanied by some funny illustrations. I refuse to call books having a so called gore/slasher story line as R-rated. If you want to understand the meaning of R-rated pick up any famous graphic novel and trust me you won’t need to read a bore-a** book in your life.
