That is so cool, because Lee's Comics was my first comic shop.

Who knew? I figured Kobe was an "Identity Crisis" fan.

I was browsing at a comic shop (Alakazam Comics) back in 2005 when Kobe Bryant stopped by to buy comics (mainly because he was told the Sin City film was based on a comic). He was recommended 100 Bullets and Miller stuff, and Identity Crisis was even brought up too. Originally Posted by Gingold

Based on the cell phone photo, he could be a backup point guard down here in MIA...

Yeah, jokes aside, he banged a chaotic white girl who decided later on it was rape. A lot of it ends up being what the legal definition of rape is in whatever state you are in, but you knew something was wacky when the girl had half a dozen semen samples in her cooch. I'm not even saying the girl didn't believe at some point she was raped, but I highly doubt Kobe thought he was raping, or thought the girl thought she was being raped, and apparently in Colorado it's not rape if you decide at some point after the act that it is.
That said, this is news how? I once sold a comic to the black guy from Scrubs and to Xzibit. Guess I should have had a camera handy.The Punisher: I’m going to cauterize your rectum, sealing it shut, so when you turn those delicious Pink Pants™ Fruit Pies into waste products the bilirubin in your feces will leach into your bloodstream and you’ll die screaming! And I’ll watch while having sex with this grateful prostitute!

Heh, you figure for the Olympics, he could have picked up some of Brubaker's Cap run. Originally Posted by pariah-1972

I was just reading that. No, no need for that. Collective Man does not a good comic make. Originally Posted by Gingold
