'IT'S JUST A PHASE' THEY SAID...


Did you like or do things in your teenage years where your parents thought or at least hoped it would be just a phase?

I did. There was Heavy Metal, Grunge and Punk music... and of course black clothes.
In general I must have been every parents nightmare. Except that I never joined a gang and beat someone up ;D
I stayed at home most times, listened to before mentioned music and read. A LOT. But not only books in general, my big passion were comics.
Comics are amazeballs.
Here's a reason why I looooooove the internet: you can get digital copies of comics legally. Only this summer have I started to think about getting the real thing and have now placed a huge order. First because I never had enough money for it and second because there are no shops that sell them around here :( So it is the internet once again!

WARNING! RAMBLE ALERT!

The reason why I am writing this is to declare my unconditional love to Journey intoMystery published my Marvel.
Here's a disclaimer for you: I cannot decide between DC or Marvel. Please don't threaten to kill me! I once as a teenager tried to decide which company to stay loyal to, but I can't! (Maybe I will tell you more about my little dilemma in the future)
Anyways:
It takes place in the Thor universe, so if you like Thor and have never heard of this: Where have you been? 
Have you enjoyed the latest movies by Marvel? Check this out!
This comic series has broken my heart so many times, and I haven't even read all of it! (there are more than 600 issues, I think) If you like drama and angst, give this a try. If you don't, do it anyways! (It does have comedy and a little love story in it, too)
This is one of those things that will forever stay with me FOREVER. 
I mean: I have been disappointed soooo many times. I dread every new release date, because it will move you, but you don't know if it's in a good or bad way. But I cannot stop! It's impossible!!

I hope you have a wonderful day and I will be back soon with some other things of my life!

Cheerio!

P.S.: Journey into Mystery does not only have a fantastic storyline, but also great artwork :)

Hello and Welcome

My name is Liko, I'm 20 years old. 
I hope you will enjoy my ramblings about my life, the things that I do and that incredibly smart and thoughtful decision to move to a small city in Germany to concentrate on my studies. (I do hope you have noticed that hint of sarcasm)
So grab a cuppa and enjoy yourselves!
