First there was Wade and then there was a Pool and a Dead guy

Oh yeah... I remember I am supposed to talk about stuff by me and comics.
Ok... here we go you guys! Tell me if it looks fine.
We will.
My first big comic moment came with my purchase of Knightfall TPB vol. 1 To me that story is one of the best for new fans and tenured ones. It does a significant change for the Dark Knight and you are able to see most, if not all, of the famous gallery of rogues batman has. But there was a problem I only had volume 1 and I did not know where to purchase comics, I was about 10 years old at the moment, so every day starting the day the comic book said the next number would be released I went to the same store I bought the comic, it was about 6 or 7 blocks from my house. Eventually a week after the release it came, finally Knightfall would be mine. Volume 2 was even better, things happened that I would've never thought of. And then... the tragic end. Batman was left beaten with his back broken.
Shut up voices, I am trying to write something readable here.
So much for the feedback you asked..
Time passed and I was able to randomly get my hands on comic books, stuff from Green Lantern, JLA random arcs and some other cool stuff. But I had never really finished reading what happened to Batman after last I had met him. I knew everything came ok because he was shown on the other titles but what had happened?
Everything changed when I visited a cousin a couple of years later. I remember there was all this Dragonball Z craziness everywhere and he was showing me his latest game when I spotted them, Knightquest and Knightsend. The same type of TPB I had. I remember I stopped paying attention to my cousin's babbling and went straight for the comics and read them from start to end. I even think I read them more than twice before heading back to my hometown. I was a happy kid, I finally knew what had happened. And I realized I was not an eventual comic fan, I was a real fan.
When I came back I already knew I could find comics on some local stores, but nothing really resembled a comic store. So I grouped with some friends I had, one which was from out of town, we converted his living room in a reunion place for comic-games and similar fans. It was the first comic gathering place for my city, and it became highly popular until the point when I left for studies and the place outgrew our initial idea and the guys rented a business local one block away from its original place.
Tell them about the future, we cans see it!
Plan is, when going back after this last year on school to get some cash by working and open the first formal establishment with fresh comics every week and a little extra stuff.
I liked it.
Thanks.
