I added the Marvel app to my tablet a while ago and until recently, I’ve been just adding the free stuff. Lately though, I’ve been reading comics to my 6-year-old son before bed and he’s really digging them, so I bought Spider-Man Season 1, we’re in the middle of it and we’re both enjoying the story (It’s a modernized retelling of Spidey’s origin and I while I’ve seen/read/watched his origin a bajillion times by now, I still think it’s pretty good – it hits all the main points while placing the story in modern times, where it would be more accessible [in certain ways] to younger/newer comic readers).
So I figured that I’ll spring a few of my hard earned duckets on some more to read with my son (I’ll call him the Boy) as well as some for me. I’ll probably aim for the trade paperbacks as I ass-u-me that they’re the best bang for my proverbial buck and I also just bought the Winter Solider saga (I heard it’s good, but I haven’t read it all yet – I’m about halfway through now) as well as a Ms. Marvel trade for me to read. Mostly, I’d want to get stuff that the Boy would like and it wouldn’t be inappropriate for him. I am not interested in reading One More Day or the Civil War but my kid digs the Hulk, so I might spring for World War Hulk and some of his other stories, maybe Red Hulk stuff.
I do have the DC app as well, but I am more of a Marvel guy. I guess if there’s something from DC that I absolutely should read, I guess I’m open to that, too. My son does like the Flash and Green lantern.
