I'm getting tired of the 20-something whippersnappers stealing my trends. Whether it's Poker, Anime, Pirates or HK flicks it eventually catches on and prices me out of the market.
Ghost Rider has been my favorite comic ever since I was a wee lad in the '60s. The flaming-skull motorcycle stunt rider that works in a carnival by day and becomes an avenging angel of death at night was about as awesome as you can get.
Suddenly it struck me. If the movie turns out to be another 'Pirates of the Caribbean' blockbuster it will be harder to buy those precious back issues! My dream of covering a wall or two with those glorious covers will be destroyed!
I can now buy old '60s and '70s issues for about $2 - $4 each. Sometimes less.
Please. Please. Please. Let the movie flop.
