I'm coming out of the closet...The nerd closet.
Captain's Log, Stardate 3450302.22, Captain Thomas Wells reporting.
I have to get this off my chest. For my entire life, I have kept what you are about to read a well-guarded secret. I read comic books. No, I don't just read comic books, I live comic books. I have stacks of comic books in my room, an entire row on one of our bookshelves devoted to them. But why do I like them so much? Here, look at this picture of Thor, my favorite superhero:
What does this picture say to you? To me it is a mythos; battles won and lost, power and those who misuse it, the responsibility to preserve life, and many other lessons that mankind should take to heart. Superheroes to me represent what is so awe-inspiringly good about mankind, and the villains whom they fight show what is despicable and evil about man. Whenever I crack open the page of a comic book, I am instantly in a good place. I have never read a comic book that I have not enjoyed, even if it was badly written. This may sound a little crazy, but after I read one of these tomes of modern myth, I am a little inspired. Crazy, I know, but that's me.
So, now you know my deepest, darkest, secret. What are you going to do with this top secret information that you have gleaned from this blog? I leave the choice to you, fair reader. Use it for good, or ill.
Also, here are some semi-cool pictures I took for my photography class.
Cheers!
