Weekly Crisis guest appearance

I have a guest post today at Kirk Warren's wonderful Weekly Crisis, answering his question about why I buy certain comics. It's certainly does not encompass all of my answers to the question, but it focuses on one reason I've been thinking a lot about. I suspect some people might fight me on it in some way or another, especially the Spider-Man part, but that's ok. Anyway, please to enjoy.
