    Kerbal is worth picking up if you dont have it. As is Batman Origins for 8.99.

    And of course, 10% goes to charity!

    Has anyone got the humble bundle comics?
    Are they any good?

    Would they hold the interest of a 13 year old boy?

    My wife's kid brother needs something to get him interested in reading and comics might work.

    The Humble Image comics bundle, has some phenomenal comics in there, Saga, Chew, Lazarus, Invincible, Walking Dead, Fatale are all brilliant. I want to say that they are a bit adult for a 13 year old all the same.

    They might be a bit heavy for a young teenager to start on!

    Thanks for the input guys.

    The young fella keeps getting in trouble for 'not doing his reading' at school and he's falling behind so I was thinking if he could get interested in comics he might start to see reading as something other than a chore


    I'll talk to him to see what kinds of characters would most interest him

    Wonder would a dialogue heavy game be a good way to trick him into reading?

    For anyone considering buying from here you may want to check www.isthereanydeal.com , you may find a better deal on some of the games using other sites :)

    Though on that note if you find the difference is very little you may want to consider and use the Humble Store anyway since "10% of proceeds go to charity".

    Also some of the sellers like GamersGate cannot always deliver the codes immediately.

    I was going to get Outlast from GamersGate for 4.79 but noticed someone mentioned that delivery time was approx 5 days (they had to wait for delivery of new codes), so I just went for HumbleBundle and got it last night
