Comics for the weekends you don’t go for a ride Bikes are badass and hardcore. Perfect to add some drama to a comic plot, won’t you say? Motorbikes are so popular and so awesome that they have made their way into the world of comics, so much so that some villains and superheroes have their very own bikes. Take the Bat-bike for example, as famous as Batman himself, this sexy black piece of tech has fans coveting it, for an eternity now. Another reason why bikes are becoming more prominent in the world of comics is because they really help build the personality of the protagonist. Wolverine is one of the most famous comic characters known to us and we would all be thoroughly disappointed if we ever see him riding anything other than a badass Harley. A sports bike just wouldn’t make the cut when it comes to him. This alone tells so much about his personality and how he likes to carry himself. It’s hard to imagine any other accessory being able to do so much for a character. One of the most iconic motorcycle in the world of comics belongs to the Ghost Rider and with good reason. Revolving around the oldest plotline of all, the battle of good against evil, the story shows the hero’s struggle with his past. The comic book does justice to the bike by making it look very intimidating with the detailed metal engraving and skull accessories adorning the bikes. No wonder it’s been an inspiration for bikers who want to get their bikes modified. Not far behind in the list is Sons of Anarchy. Following closely on the actions of a close-knit outlaw group in a fictional town in California's Central Valley. The star of the show Jackson Teller, who is also the vice- president of the club begins to question the purpose of the group and his place among the gang. The main themes in this story are brotherhood, loyalty and redemption. Just the thing you would want to read with your gang.
