Torrents?

Yeah I know this is real bad, I usually buy my comics and try to support Alpha FLight much as I can. However, my shop can't get some issues and I'm dying to read issues #55, #74, #94 and many others. Do you know of a place that has Alpha FLight comic torrents?

Sorry🙁
=========
Read some summaries of those issues, good lord EVEN I underestimated them.

I have a fair few digital AF comics... But not those three. =(

I may have just found a working torrent. SO HA! Now I can show Northstar beating Mr.Fantastic, Box phasing an entire base into his armor, Diamond Lil killing Spider-Man [AR], Vindicator beating Doom, Talisman kills the Human Torch [AR], Puck kills Wolverine and Colossus [AR]

Be scared 🙂

Oh baby just found a working torrent🙂

Taking forever to download, but oh the feats I will post. Such as Mac blocking telepathic manipulations after he learns the frequency. Sasquatch kicks Things ass, in a fight I didn't know they had 🙂 [just read the summary of it], Box phasing into a spaceship, etc.

Yeah Alpha FLight 🙂

how do you use torrents? and where do you find them?

That was a robot Thing wasn't it?

King I have all 130 issue from volume 1. If you need AF scans let me know.

You first need a program such as Bitcomet or eDonkey2000 and you go to such sites as http://torrentreactor.net/index.php and search for what you want. If you have questions just pm me, I just got home and I'm to tired to explain now.

Yep [AF #94]. Still kicks his ass though 😄

Oh thanks, hopefully this torrent doesn't become inactive like the other one I was using. So hopefully I won't need help with the scans, but thanks for the offer though.

Odd! I downloaded the file, but when I try to open the file it says "There are no image files to display", but it's like 12.5mb. I use the program CDisplay, and the files are currently in cbr format like the other comics I view. Do I need another program to view these ones?

The entire torrent needs to finish downloading.

If nothing else rename the cbr file to zip and open it as normal.

I faced a similar problem with my Uncanny X-Men #244.cbr It wouldn't let me accessit in Cdisplay until the entire 2Gb file downloaded. . .

It did finish downloading though.

It was originally a tar file, and I tried to rename the individual cbr comic files to zip but that didn't work.

Any other ideas? thanks for the help so far.

When I download the file it's in tar format, a variation of winzip. When I extract the files from the tar file the comics are in cbr format, but don't seem to show the images.

7zip? I have never heard of that. I will try it out, thanks.

no problem.

7 Zip is a nice small freeware prog just search in google for it.

Son of a *****! I tried 7zip and it still didn't work.

hmmm where did you download the torrent,
so i can download it too. I will then try some tests.

I was using BitComet and had a working torrent, but it became in active when it was 93.7% complete. I got it here,

1. http://torrents.to/search/346/alpha+flight.html

For this new torrent I was using a program called eDonkey2000 and it doesn't give you a torrent link. Just the file name which is "Alpha Flight Vol1 (Completo)(Crg)(Comicrel Ar).tar" and you can search for it with the program.
