User blog comment:Nausiated/The ethics of downloading/@comment-3232065-20110910205545

well i think youve made a good arguement and i think in your case its okay. i myself dont download but i do know how to use my libraries online database and ive read every marvel graphic novel in my region (they have hundreds) and im half way through the dc stuff now (finished the vertigo stuff already). i do however have 8 boxes of comics though so marvels already gotten my money (and will continue to). This site is a great resource for information and in the past ive made tons of edits for appearances of items and characters (mostly items). Having a good knowledge of the site i can say that it is like any encyclopedia not complete (especially since theyre still making marvel comics) so what your doing is good. i myself (when i finish more comics will update some more character bios (example ben reilly is in europe see web of spiderman)(darkhawk disapeared when nova went to fight thanos) so with that said to find this stuff out i went through their appearances lists and from there found which comics they were in so this site led to me buying more comics. so even if you didnt buy the comics which you read to help the site people like me may use the information you provided to buy comics themselves.
