Free comics (and other books)

[hatman]

On the subject of comics, I thought I'd mention WOWIO, a service which allows you to read books online for free. They've got a sizable comics section. Including Alan Moore's not-to-be-missed run on Supreme. (Oops, seems that was only available for a limited time. Guess I got lucky.) But the Alter Ego series was pretty cool. And they've got a selection of Golden Age stuff, too. Just thought I'd share. :)

Comic pimping

[robynebr]

Probably well known to most geeks already, but not, as I've discovered, ALL geeks, is xkcd.

It's a daily (or bi-daily) snort fix. I don't always get it, but when I do, it's a riot. This week's series isn't the best example of wit as far as I'm concerned, because it's an homage, and I think I'm one of the 0.0001% of xkcd fans who doesn't give a rap about Firefly. But if you're not familiar with it, check out the archives. Good stuff.
