I’m currently a
Humble Bundle subscriber since September 2022 when I got my
Steam Deck. I previously joined for one year, starting April 2019 to April 2020, because it was a great way to building up your Steam library without paying too much. The only downside is that you don’t actually know what you’re going to get.
It’s a good deal, but unfortunately, because you don’t know what games you’re going to get - you may end up getting duplicate copies (if you previously own these games).
Anyway, there are some great charity Humble Bundle going on this month.
The Essential Content Creator Bundle
|
First, I wanted to spotlight the
The Essential Content Creator Bundle, from
Magix. You get six software (one of the software
ProDAD mercalli v5 is only good for two years), but the clear stand-out product is the video editor
VEGAS Pro 18 Edit. This is a $250 software that you can get for $25. For $25, it’s worth it just for Vegas alone.
Just a little background, but I used to use Vegas when it was own by
Sony, it was one of the best video editor that rivals
Adobe’s
Premiere. Sometime in 2016, Sony sold it to Magix.
I own
Vegas Pro 14 and I recently tried to install it on my new
Lenovo Legion PC and it wouldn’t register unless I de-activate previous installations. Keep that in mind if you intend on installing the software on various computers.
When I installed it on the new computer, last month, I contemplated on actually paying $150 to upgrade to Vegas 18… but I decided against it because it’s just too expensive. I’m glad I waited, because now I can upgrade to Vegas 18 for $25.
The other amazing deal is the
Black Friday Encore: Lone Wolf & Cub and More by Koike from
Dark Horse. If you missed the
Black Friday deal (like I did!), here’s your second chance. For $18.00 you are getting over 7,000 pages of
Lone Wolf and Cub. That, by itself, is an amazing deal. You also get Kazuo Koike’s other works like
Crying Freeman and
Samurai Executioner. I’ve own most of Koike’s works, so was happy to see they’ve included some books I’ve never read before.
I started reading
Color of Rage, and it’s a hoot. It’s about two prisoners who escaped from a slave ship. One of them is a ronin and the other is a black man. The two travel throughout Japan helping people and trying to survive. It’s about racism, it’s about a stranger in a strange land... it would make for a great television show.
I’ve been reading the manga on my
iPad Pro 12.8, and although it looks fine… the battery life is terrible and reading for an extended period time on a glossy LED screen is not recommended. I’ve been giving a lot of thought on buying the new
Kindle Scribe (10.2 inch) or the
Boox Nova Air Color (7.8 inches) to read comic books. They’re both e-ink, but the
Boox having the ability to display in e-ink color (which is what I need if I want to read digital color comics).
Yours,
