If you have a VPN any torrent site will have it (Halo series - or anything else for that matter).

It's on paramount+ though there is a ton of apps etc that can stream it.
Agreed. I’m really itching to go dig out my old comic stash and re-read the original series.
Oscar Isaac is excellent in the role.
Except Mark Spector sounds like Poe Dameron.
What era? I'm tempted as well.
To be honest, not sure. I do know that I have a bunch though, including some early 80s stuff as well as some of the more recent series and some in between. I used to collect Moon Knight and Ghost Rider (duh). Oh, and Punisher.
Went digging through my parents' house hoping against hope that my old comic book stash was still around. Spiderman / X-Men and all the good stuff from my youth. Was hoping to start getting my son into it.Agreed. I’m really itching to go dig out my old comic stash and re-read the original series.

All gone
But he loves the Marvel heroes. Spider-man, Hulk, Hawkeye, Captain America and Iron Man are all heroes we play fight every day.Too bad mom threw out all that good stuff.
EDIT: Do people still buy comic books?
Apparently yes. Did a bit of research and my volume 1, issue 1 of Moon Knight sold for as much as $1400 USD. Paid $.50.
Might need to buy some fancy white gloves like the hot book expert/naughty librarian on pawn stars.
I did the same but I suspect my fundie mother either pitched them all as "divil's spawn" or got conned out of them by some travelling picker.
Had quite a few 50s and early 60s ...didn't see many Green Lantern come into stock in our little town and knew I had a few. Superman for sure ....

I know I have Moon Knight #1 in there. Spiderman's Wedding, and probably Spawn #1. Also a lot of G.I. Joe, G.I.Joe #2 was one of the most popular books at the time (Snake Eyes story). Plus a bunch of Iron Man, and Avengers. Most of what I have should be in good shape even though I did use and read them. But I haven't looked at them in years and are still at my parents house. (Yes still there).
My cousin is still heavy into comics, but he buys and sells as a side hustle. People will buy reprints, or reprints of entire series to have a complete collection.
There is a system to grade comics and mostly revolves around these plastic cases which you store them in. I thought it was stupid as someone is making money off selling he plastic cases, I guess it's smart to leverage it, and the comic collectors bought into it.

You can watch an episode on YouTube, but ya Paramount+ or on the high seas, not all episode are released yet for bingers.
This is a sore point for me…
I had Judge Dredd first issues (2000 AD was the comic)….Dan Dare annuals…Rupert the Bear annuals
No idea what happened to them. The Judge Dredd editions are worth 10,000 pounds together. I’m hoping they are in the attic of the family home and sealed in an airtight container.
Not sure if I have these…

I had DC and Marvel comics going back to 1962, tucked away in the basement. I didn't know it at the time but my brother was slowly siphoning them off and selling them to the flea market vendor that he worked for, in exchange for new comics. The m*****f***** was giving him face value (many of them $0.10 and $0.12 comics) in exchange for the new ones. I had hundreds, maybe over a thousand, and they were in reasonable shape. Obviously not top shape because I bought them to read, not to save.This is a sore point for me…

I think I have that issue as well - but I need to go digging.
I thought I was the only one who had a mad crush on the book expert (Rebecca Romney) from Pawn Stars. Nerdy & cute!
That Spawn #1 is lilkely worth some good $ if it's in good shape!

I’ve got a whack of comics from the early to mid 80’s… Secret Wars, X-Men, Rom, X-Factor etc etc.
I should get them checked out at some point. Kept in the dark, bagged etc. The #1’s should be worth something or another.

Damnit...now I got to search my parents' house top to bottom to make sure they're not there....I'm 99% sure they're not.
But I remember Spider-Man's wedding was in there, first edition of Carnage, and I think Venom as well. Loved those things.
I'll have to check the cottage also. Damnit.
I'll let my son build his own collection as he gets older, hopefully I won't make the same mistake 2x.

No doubt!
I’m thinking that the issue of Secret Wars where Venom (or just a symbiote at the time) makes his first appearance might be worth something.

My guess would be I could buy a throttle tube and a couple of brake pads. That’s about it.Sell some off and you just might get enough to buy the Streetfighter V4…..
Sigh.
