THE INCREDIBLE INTERNET GUIDE TO COMIC BOOKS AND SUPERHEROES

0
0

As the world’s most internet knowledgeable man, I’ve amassed a 1337 library of internet information.

Today, as a public service, I share one of the books from my collection: James R. Flower Jr’s The Incredible Internet Guide to Comic Books and Superheroes.

Because if there’s an incredible guide about the internet you should trust, it should be one that’s over an inch thick, was printed in the year 2000, and uses comic sans throughout to help the reader understand that they’re reading about comic books.

I seldom describe a book as being worth less than the paper it’s printed on, but James R. Flower Jr’s The Incredible Internet Guide to Comic Books and Superheroes is such a book. It’s a collection of dead links to embarrassing fan pages for sometimes obscure comic book characters. It’s also only about 50% of the content in the book! The other half – for no reason – is an index of every appearance by an individual comic book character by issue and issue number. It’s exhaustive and comes out of nowhere.

What’s worse is that James R. Flower Jr. over explains how the internet works, and talks down to his readers – a group that I’m sure knows how to use the internet.

Don’t believe me? Check out his introduction.
