Here is my shelf. My next goal purchase is Hellboy since I could never find the time to get them, but I'm wondering if it's more worth getting the Library editions or the trades.

>>78770290
It's not like I'm bad mouthing his pencils, those are excellent

It's just his coloring that is sub-par

>>78770739

How often do you guys dust your shelves?

>>78770739
annhilation was the worst thing to come out of marvel in the last 15 years. Why did you buy the hardcovers??

>>78772797
That's a pretty bold statement when you consider the entirety of Marvel's output in the last 11 years or so

>>78773154

But yeah, I couldn't pass up the Zatoichi box set.

>>78770125
I agree. If I had more disposable cash, I'd buy more trades.But for now, I gotta scrimp.

>>78773105
I don't think you grasp just what it is you're saying.

Not liking Annihilation is fine; it's not my favorite thing either, despite how highly the rest of the internet lauds it.

But to say it's the worst thing Marvel's done in 15 years? To say that

>Ultimatum
>Ultimates 3
>Bendis' Avengers
>The fucking Punisher in Heaven
>DeConnick Captain Marvel
>countless other books of the same, terrible quality

are better is something that really can't be attributed to anyone other than those unfamiliar with what was actually put out by Marvel since the turn of the millennium.

In other words: that's the new Big Two primary audience.

>>78773201
That was my first assumption. Not of Many.

And you say Annihilation is dull....

there was nothing wrong with ultimatium, it was a good crisis like book and it actually shook up the ultimate universe when it was starting to stagnate. ultimates 3 was okay... what are you getting at. I read all of those except punisher. They were still way more exciting.

Once again, do you really understand what it is you're saying?

I get enjoying some aspects of Ultimatum. I get seeing it for what it wanted to be rather than what it is.

But to say there's nothing--NOTHING--wrong with it...

>>78773447
Shelf threads are usually free from this sort of garbage. I like to give everyone here the benefit of the doubt before passing judgment.

>>78773401
maybe I misspoke. It had some flaws but at least it wasn't boring. Annhilation not only had tons of flaws it was boring. That's got to be the number one rule of comic books. Don't make it boring.

Lets just leave it at that.

>>78777990
>>78778129
"books that women usually like" does not mean "books for women." Chill.

And it's not JUST a matter of the individual books. Taken as a whole, your shelf looks very feminine. Luna Bros, Harley Quinn, Sandman, Saga, Wayward, lots of "strong female protags."

I kind of zoned out halfway through Vol. 2

Is it worth powering through? I felt like it was just "more of the same" and I expected a bit more than "indie Suicide Squad."

>Orion, 52, Planetary Omnis
Those are the next DC omnis on my list, and I can't decide which to get first. I saw your shelf in a previous thread as well and it tortured me just as badly. "Just buy all three at once," is the terrible idea it gives me.

>>78778431
It's a REALLY good idea for the next 5 days because B&N's 3-for-2 deal includes omnis

>>78778284
I was responding more to that one anon but I do get it. I prefer more story driven comics than action driven comics because I have no idea where to start in the larger series. Most male driven books are super hero series that I don't know where to start on.

>>78778431
Planetary is extremely indebted to modern, widescreen storytelling; it's a good series, but you may want to hold off on it if you're worried about the most bang for your buck.

I liked Orion a lot more than 52, but it comes down to whether you want cosmic and trippy or more traditional superhero stuff.

>>78778431
52 is the best of the bunch.

Thanks for the recommendations. I actually used to own Grant Morrison's Animal but sold my copy of some dumb reason. And don't worry about literature. I read books as much as comic books. I'm working on the H.P. Lovecraft collection and The Divine Comedy.

>>78778431
52 is great but the omnibus seems too large, best format is the 4 paperbacks since you get the notes pages with those (they were left out of the omnibus for some reason)

DC is putting out two larger trades for it soon too but I'm not sure if they will have the notes pages

Well that's when Fiffe started doing the issues focused on each individual team member. I like those issues (just like how I like all of Copra), but volume 3 is where he gets back on track with the storytelling. So yes keep reading, you faggot. You especially need to hurry up and get to issue 21, my personal favorite. It's basically just one long action scene with very little dialogue, but goddamn is it awesome.

Still, it's better than not having the book at all.

Unlikely. That's just the shrink wrap on the cover, I took the image from IST.

>>78801965
I had to fix my SCUD Vol 2 trade. Bought it used with lose pages. I cracked the sound along where the pages fell out, applied some glue, set the pages in, cleaned the excess and waited. It wasn't prefect, but it was a dirty fix to a $2 book so I'm happy with it.

>>78816589

About half way through tmnt, is surprisingly good

Why aren't Haunted Knight and Dark Victory regarded as highly as Long Halloween and Hush? Are they bad?

>>78831011
No they aren't bad, in fact they very much continue themes from long halloween. Loebs greatness before his son passed away.

Hush is kind of a greatest hits Saturday morning cartoon. Great every now and then, wonderful fir new readers but nothing groundbreaking

>>78772797
Worst bait ever.

>>78831011
No just a the long Halloween is just more popular and a bit of a more tight storie than the others but non the less they are great aswell

Miller's Daredevil and Daredevil Companion omnibuses (omnibi?) are getting new printings in a few months time.

Do you guys even read Omnis? I always read comics on the couch or sitting up in bed and the omnis seem uncomfortable and unweildly. is it really worth it for a larger page?

>>78836322
To be honest most of the times I never even touch my omnibi because I already read it somewhere else so I just get it because I am fan of the storie or really like the writer/artes pic somewhat related just pick it up from a guy on Craig'slist for 15 bucks I'm 100 percent sure it was stolen but dam hell of a deal

that image i posted was just from google

>>78836174
the guy at the Mile High Comics in Lakewood CO tried to tell me the Man-Thing Omnibus had all the man-thing stuff in it, after leaving the store b.c i didn't have that much money and my brother wouldn't shell out that much for me, we looked online and saw just "how much" all of it really meant...good thing i saved my money it would be a waste to spend 100+ on something that "complete". good thing the .cbr version got ripped a few months after i got back as i was still strongly considering buying it since i couldn't find it in moe. oh well at least i have (probably) more man-thing comics on my hard drive than anyone else now and i can be happy with my two essentials

>>78836269
so fans will have to buy a new edition with an updated cover for 125% increase in price?

Marvel should just release an Archival Edition which has literally every appearance of a character, EVERY ONE, one panel in a comic, then the whole comic is in there, shit i'd pay ~800 for a nice quality man-thing archival edition. but of course one problem is that the stories are ongoing so it'll be tedious to try to get all of a character.

>>78836354
wanting the spine of his books to fade unnaturally with the rest of the book, also wanting oily fingerprint marks on it, etc...

>>78836475
that looks legit anon, i like the minimal non-invasive spine...would shelve/10

So are the first 4 voumes of Nu52 Wonder Woman worth picking up?

>>78836521
thats still better than the dust jacket getting worn and wrinkled then putting it on the shelf looking fucked up

>>78836558
there's pros and cons ofc you could scan the jacket and make a copy on 11x17 paper and leave that on the shelf and box up the originals, my dad boxes up all his Stephen King jackets (which is probably smart) since he has first edition hardcovers on pretty much everything

i tried to balance the weight on my shelves as the built in ones are hardly suitable for even paperbacks so i got the shelves in the picture and just moved most of my nicer books and stuff over, most of my oversized books end up in a long flat sterelite tub under my bed :,/ which is probably where my missing S.King book went to

There's a lot of OOP stuff from DC. Like most of Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibi.

I removed the shitty shelfs it had on it and made my own out of some wood I had left over from a work bench I had made and also reenforce the shelves with a L shape bracket so now I can put as much stuff as I can fit in it with out having to worry about it bowing

>>78837275

>>78831794
I kinda want that Elektra omni when reprinted because I have the main book and plan on getting the Companion Omni, but I already have both books collected. I prefer the GN HC I have of Elektra Lives Again.

>>78830785

Would it be better to sell them as a whole set, say, Snyder/Capullo batman 1-45 + 4 annuals, or sell them by story arc like Court of Owls, Death in the Family, Zero Year etc?

Really good summary.
It's everything you loved about tmnt as a kid but retold in an updated way adding more depth and characters.
Action is very well done. Many comics today are missing the action panel to panel fight scenes. Big plus there.
Go ahead and grab it you wont regret it

>>78857777
quads confirm fucking dc omnis are too expensive even though they never go oop really

>>78855224
Not a bad start anon!

Nice diversity from dc you have. Love Johns GL that's really what got me into cape comics. Dial h is awesome. If you like Shazam you should seek out Black Adam: the dark age. Good stuff.

Also johns does a great Aquaman and Flash

Buy it.

There are cheap tps and affordable over sized hcs.

Aaron's arguably best work about an Indian Reservation run by pretty much mafia header and thugs.
Man who is fbi under cover goes into the reservation and begins working a case, used to live at there and abandoned it long ago.
Very dark history between everyone slowly explored.
Lots of deepth added to characters, even those you hate are fleshed out and you can't help but feel for them.

Fully released in tps, 3 deluxe hcs

I think it's right. Vibe only has two fewer issues and it's about the same. Sword of Sorcery is more though.

>>78858667
Plus volume 2 is coming out in a few months and that will contain issues #13–20, the Casey, April, Fugitoid, Krang, and Stockman Micro Series issues, and the complete Secret History of the Foot Clan mini-series.

I can't wait. Really glad to see these are collecting the minis as well in chronological order as well.

Guys I fucked up my new shelf.

>>78866978
What's wrong?

Also i think you would like Green Lantern by Johns and Green Arrow by Jeff Lemire.

Swamp Thing by snyder and soule is probably up your alley as well.

Just on the dc side of things

>>78867075
The top shelf is upside down so the particle board is extremely obvious. and yeah I got Green Arrow by Lemire and some older superman stuff coming in the mail.

>Goes to LCS to pick up some singles. Shop owner tells me the comic book prices will go up next month by 50 cents because of the shitty economy
Looks like I switching to trades for 90% of my shit now. Floppies are just not worth it anymore

>>78866978
Take it apart and unfuck it, this time actually look at the instructions properly and not have it upside down.

>>78868320
Only floppies I buy are Harrow County because they come with backup stories that won't be in the trades

>>78868438
I buy Nailbiter and Lazarus in floppies but everything else Image is in trade and floppies for some of the big two shit I like

You've been spamming this shit all day in several threads, nobody's going to buy your overpriced variant.

Anya mah waifu.

only stuff i got this week was my simonson thor tpbs and swamp thing #1

the new swamp thing book seemed pretty solid.

>>78872484
I wouldn't read Black Adam: The Dark Age before reading 52.

And i wouldn't read 52 before reading Infinite Crisis.

And i wouldn't read Sinestro Corps War in your Green Lantern omni before reading Infinite Crisis.

And i wouldn't read Inifnite Crisis before reading Crisis on Infinite Earths, Countdown to Infinite Crisis, OMAC Project, Rann–Thanagar War, Day of Vengeance and Villains United.

>>78872883
See i think that's the logic that sometimes makes people avoid comics.

Infinite crisis maybe but everything you need to understand Green Lantern is in johns omnibus.

Adam stands on his own and 52 is a great read anytime just my opinion though

>>78872775
Swamp Thing was campy here and there but i like the horror theme and where the book is going

>>78867126
Lol i see it now

>>78874889
>See i think that's the logic that sometimes makes people avoid comics

True, but for the pre-Flashpoint universe, the continuity is fairly important.

Just be grateful i didn't mention Identity Crisis.

>everything you need to understand Green Lantern is in johns omnibus

Emerald Twilight and some of Hal's Parralax/Spectre stories make for good preparatory reading though.

>Adam stands on his own

I say the story hinges on 52 seeing as it was a downright sequel.

If you like garbage

So what's everyone's white wale at the moment?

Mine's a hardcover copy of Moore's League of Extraordinary Gentleman omni.

>>78877339
Witzend and Madman Gargantua

>>78877339
Forever the Eternals Omnibus, but Witzend like >>78877617 mentioned could work its way on there easily.

>>78877339
Deadpool by joe kelly omnibus
..that and kirby 4th world

>>78878858
