A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... A girl named Rachel met a boy named Jack, one 4th of July weekend. The night of July 3rd as they sat in an open air restaurant and asked all those basic "get to know you" type questions. The conversation came around to comic books. I had read comics when I was a kid. I was really into Wonder Woman, Batman, and Justice League among others. I hadn't picked up a book in probably a decade.
I told him this but it didn't seem to matter. We talked about many things comic that primarily involved Marvel. All I really knew about Marvel comics were the cartoons "Spiderman and His Amazing Friends" and the X-men one from the 90's. I really liked those but I didn't know thing one about Marvel Comics. Again, it didn't seem to matter. Throughout the weekend we talked Marvel, we talked DC, we talked movies, we talked cartoons.
That conversation continues to this day. I'm more aware of Marvel and have read a few comics. When it comes down to it I'm still a DC Girl. And the best part is that it's never boring. There is always something new and interesting to talk about some new Spiderman story I should read but just can't quite bring myself to do it. There is some great DC art work out there but he can't quite bring himself to read it. It's great that we love the same things but it the differences that make life really interesting.
