Over the years it has become more common for people to work on Thanksgiving. This is a rather sad fact considering that Thanksgiving is a day to spend with your families and celebrate everything that you have. Many places such as grocery stores and party stores have people work on thanksgiving. As far as I’m concerned Thanksgiving is an important holiday to be together with the people you care about most and nobody should have to work on this day.

One of the many reasons why people do work on Thanksgiving is because families that are cooking sometimes forget key ingredients for the big meal on this special day. However, this is no excuse for people to be working. Yeah businesses are messing up potential sales, but it is more important for their employees to be with their families. Besides Thanksgiving isn’t just about food, like many people think it is, it’s about being thankful for everything that you have and knowing that there are people out there that have it worse than you.

Ever since I was I child I had hoped to escape reality and live within a fictional world. My escape was found within comic books. I’ve spent my entire life reading these fun comics and have shared countless memories with friends based on my enjoyment of these stories. A very controversial debate that exists within the comic industry is which publisher is better; Marvel or DC. Marvel crushes DC because they tell a more complex and enjoyable story, have more relatable characters, and excel in their crossover events.

Marvel comics were founded by a man named Martin Goodman. Goodman introduced the world to heroes such as the Fantastic Four and Captain America (both of which are still around today). While Goodman was very talented at writing comics he struggled with distributing comics to all of his fans. To help him he hired a man named Stan Lee, who is currently the head of the company. Lee created the majority of Marvel’s characters to this day and even cameos in their related movies. Some of Lee’s most iconic characters ever created are: Spiderman, Hulk, Thor, Iron Man, and Wolverine.
