  10. great! just downloaded this great comic. I have one query. are we in any danger of being shut by any copy right owner? i hope not - but then we need to have a mirror site to back up all these? has any one thought about this?

  31. You'd never know how happy I am by stumbling with your blog. I have been looking for these classics for 20 years now (since reading them when I was about 10 years old). My grandmother used to have a collection of these works but because of neglect, natural decomposition of paper, flooding and dirt (in her basement) - all of them were damaged and destroyed. Now with technology I'm glad that I could read comics with my iPad through a comic reader. I could never thank you enough for sharing these graphic novels. Now I can also share them to my children. Thank you so much.
