As you’re all well aware, I spend a lot of time on Comic Book Herald talking about Marvel Comics.

Once you’ve started enjoying the gift of Marvel Unlimited, one of your first instincts will be to share the finding with your friends and family. Well… your first instinct will be to lock yourself in a dimly lit room with your comics for the next three months.
