Thread question: Are you guys okay with your awesome shelves being used as a OP pic for these threads?
Last thread's shelf had its owner complain about it so I want to be sure you guys are okay with it and no I don't claim ownership of anyones shelf, just a way of featuring the Sup Forumsmmunity's shelves.

Mainly got Avengers Academy because I found it for 3 bucks, I hope it will be slightly enjoyable at least.
Tyler Hall
I've been buying fuck all and it's getting to me. Nothing but my pulls for about a month.
Probably have a problem when I want to buy things just for the sake of buying them.
Logan Rivera
Wicked and the divine sounded cool but it disappointed me real bad, man. I read the first 2 volumes and couldn't continue. Something about how the characters act, how the story progressed just seemed so stiff or lackluster or fake or something and I ain't talking about the art. Maybe I'm too groggy but that's the best way I can explain it. The writing sucked, basically.
Ayden Sanders
free thanks to ebay bucks
Logan Martin
also free thanks to ebay bucks program
slight fold on the corner though
Jonathan Hill
bought these solely for the bookplate.
i'm going to sell the tpb's and get my purchase price back.
Samuel Perry
What was the deal here? Why did the trades come with a bookplate?
Ian Jackson
I need a new bookshelf. A good one is hard to find. Mine are cheap. The shelves are bowing. I'm running out of room.
Jayden Foster
the dude got it with issue one. i missed out since my shop didn't get them. also if you bought them from hurtt's website they came with a different bookplate which i also have. and then there is the challenger ex libris book plate which i have. i have everything sixth gun.
Cooper Cox
Shit guy, that's brand dedication if ever I've seen it. I've been considering picking up the Gunslinger editions.
Nathan Torres
they look impressive. if you want to read the series get the tpb's.
Caleb Taylor
Already read the whole series. Trying to decide if I'm really going to want to read it again and again. My local library has all the tpb's.
Benjamin Lopez
Yeah? I'm on issue 10 now, and liked it a lot so far. Gillen seems to try to be hip too hard sometimes, but it works well considering the setting, and I think the characters all have their own little personality.
Jackson Jackson
my opinion is incredibly biased but the truth is your gonna want to read this again and make all your friends read it too.because if they don't love the sixth gun then they aren't your friends
Gavin Edwards
You fucks who don't buy floppies are cancer incarnate.
Andrew Phillips
Can't display floppies well on the shelf.
Ayden Evans
Fuck you. I'm giving comic companies sales they wouldn't otherwise have from me if they didn't offer hardcover collections.
Also, I want to read them in a larger format. Big pages. That's the draw for me.
Jordan Ward
ebay bucks program? do tell
Cooper Cox
>he doesn't buy the protective plastic encasings that help make comics shelf friendly
Jace Rogers
Buy enough shit, you get ebay bucks over time.
Not him, but I got a free Harley Quinn comic book today becausr I had a ton of ebay bucks.
The higher you pay for something with your own money, the more ebay bucks you get to spend later
Aaron Jones
Never heard about this before and I buy shit from eBay all the time. Is this a US only thing?
Camden Bailey
Well shit.

Floppies are the cancer

Cooper Smith
How is Hellblazer 6 to 8? I have 1,2,3 and 6 on my shelf, read the 1st 3. Does the new author improve the series?
Jason Jones
No.
Brayden Phillips
The latest thing I bought was the 52 omnibus
I'm gonna get the 2nd Sandman omnibus and take a 2 months purchasing break
Leo Morgan
>tfw too poor to afford a bookshelf for a whole >tfw all my comics are in a box in my attic I just wanna display them, dammit
Are walmart or Big Lots' shelves any good?
Jacob Wright
I liked Jenkins' run when I read the whole Hellblazer series a few years ago. Great art by Phillips too. I have an original page.
Brody Brooks
sure if you don't have alot of stuff. probably maybe 50 lbs or so. total.
Jack Russell
don't know about those since I don't live in America. Try 2nd hand stores, ebay, ebay ebay classifieds, craigslist or if there's an IKEA near you or at least in your state, get a pick-up or a van or something (there's bound to be someone you know who you can borrow it from, or combine it with a road trip) to pick some shelves up from them. Get a BILLY or FINNBY. FINNBY is best quality for price, they're sturdy as fuck and so cheap they must have been produced by 14 year old Cubans but they look a bit thin. BILLY is just classic cool and very roomy. KALLAX may look nice (I have one as well) but if you have oversize books (Absolutes) they won't fit height-wise. Not sure about LIATORP, looks like the shelf-rackings are fixed in height so you might end up with the same problem as with the KALLAX ones.

Liam Sullivan
i've been waiting for my last order of stuff with xmas money to come in to post new stuff.
fucking 3 party amazon sellers, slow as fuuuck
Zachary Reyes
>fucking 3 party amazon sellers, slow as fuuuck I know that feel. Also if you're european, don't order at Books Etc. I did that 3 times now, first time was okay (book 2 and 3 of the big Godland editions, which came in a proper box) but 2nd and 3rd time I ordered HCs from them and they arrived just in envelopes and were battered as fuck. I TOLD them beforehand to please use proper padding, like just fucking newsprint or something stuffed into it but first time they told me they "conform to amazon requirements" or some shit and the second time they said "yeah we'll do that". fuck them! Speedy Hen is cool, they're actually fast as fuck, even to mainland europe. There are a few other sellers which I ordered from which are all right, but really, Books etc a shit, same as bookdepository. only bad experiences with them.
Liam Evans
>first couple volumes of nausicaa Why didn't you just buy the hardcover edition?
Charles Torres
What if you're not into comics that even comes out in floppies. Most adult oriented comics comes out in regular book form and aren't serialized.
Samuel Carter
Got the first two for Christmas, just ordered the other two. Also have a bid on Dream Logic on eBay.
Also, side note, but why are buyfag thread shitposters always the worst? They pop in and drop one comment for the (you)s which buyfags are always happy to give since we're so insecure and never stay to banter.
Adam Harris
those on /vg/ are worse. >why does this general exist? this game has been dead for [timeframe] why are you still here?
Brayden Martinez
>i have everything sixth gun. do you have six guns then?
Adam Moore
yeah, i'm trying to find someone to make custom handles that look like the ones in the comic though.
Angel Bennett
dedicated as fuck.
Camden Williams
I admire your dedication.
Daniel Wright
So the series is really good?
I'm honestly asking as the only thing of Bunn's that I've liked was Sinestro.
Andrew Wilson
i like it. it has twists and turns i never saw coming. and i saw the gist of the ending in issue 50 as soon as they revealed the guns would and could change reality if they were brought together. the revelation of the true nature of becky and drake was totally out of left field and totally mind blowing. the mini series fleshing out the pasts of some of the minor characters helped fill in numerous details and generally showed how the world of the sixth gun works.
Jackson Gray
Just got all 5 volumes of Grayson. On Vol. 4. I think this run is criminally underrated. The paneling and pacing alone make it worth it.
Liam Peterson
>upside down
Why do Iphones do this.
Charles Peterson
Christmas haul. New stuff
Ethan Cook
>not glueing your books upside down into your shelf
Caleb Reed
also put Eternaut on display somewhere, the cover is just too awesome.
Andrew Bell
OP or anyone, I want to get the Tintin books in one set. Which is the best to get? Which version do you have and would you recommend it?
Easton Lopez
There's an older version of OP's set in blue that's legitimately complete, I don't think it's available anymore though. The versions that are being sold now either don't have Congo or don't have Congo/Soviets/Alph-Art so AFAIK none of them have the entire series.
Get them individually if your wallet can handle it. The art suffers from being shrunk down so much
Isaac Watson
Thanks for flipping that for me and that is why I have it on the end cap, Juan Salvo is always watching.
Robert Thomas
Look at this plebeian and laugh
Camden Brooks
don't feed him and be proud of your non-floppy-comics.
Eli Phillips
Still waiting on a few things also when does Black Science start getting good? Its been a total snooze so far, also recommend stuff.
Liam James
Turns out op used my shelf pic for the thread.. the ones i have were purchased at wal-mart and hold up well, althoughhhh the only book i have of Omni-weight is Fear Agent and its on the end. But generally theyre a cheap and basic shelf... just look for something around 3-4 feet high, two or three shelves, adjustable pegs for the shelves, etc. theyre not terribly expensive.
Just don't make the mistake i did and if you want more than one get them all at once, i made the mistake of getting my second shelf a year after the first one and the second one was slightly taller, annoys the shit outta me.
Xavier Bell
Another Goon, and I might finish off Scott Pilgrim if I can find the cash. Trying to avoid starting a new series only for it to go OOP halfway through.
My wishlist far, far exceeds my ability to put a reasonable dent in it.
Liam Sanchez
I pick up 10 books currently and have a ton of floppies... they're just in shortboxes not lined up on my shelf because that would be stupid looking and inconvienent
Elijah Roberts
>Black >Science every time
Lucas Davis
I dunno what to tell you... I like it because its like Lost in Space gone horribly horribly wrong, plus the art kicks ass.
Asher Foster
What's wrong with Black Science?
Eli Morris
Yeah yeah I know. But I needed some more non big 2 comics to chill out the hipsters here, I figured it would be similar to Quantum Leap
Won't say anything bad about the art. Scalera can draw some sick aliens
Brayden Jenkins
These came in the mail two days ago. megg and mogg in amsterdam was out of stock so i'll have to wait, but they sent the mini comic
Benjamin Clark
it's an oxymoron
Jacob Richardson
>megg and mogg in amsterdam was out of stock so i'll have to wait, but they sent the mini comic
Happened to me, too. Would have waited to order it if the site had said something at the time.
Aiden Jackson
Oh a lazy racist joke. Good job!
Brayden Green
...
Hudson Gutierrez
I can't say i *really* know what any of that is, but i hope you thoroughly enjoy it, getting new books is always fun
Justin Price
I'm hoping they include Mini Hex with One More Year. I had already purchased the other books when I learned about it.
Gabriel Watson
UP!
Anthony Russell
Rumbles
Camden Scott
New stuff. Yeah I know, Bendis.
Can't beat that Magik tho

3/3 There's two more popeye books somewhere in the house, and at least one more Barks.
Matthew Torres
Any advantages of buying Hardcovers as opposed to TPB?
Michael Cook
It's just preference.
Eli Hall
i didn't know the resurrection of ra's al ghul was morrison - do I need it for the full saga?
Leo Wilson
Recently bought the Amazing Spider Man omnibus for a good price. Also got Moon Knight From the Dead and Lunatic, but they were fucking damaged in the mail. Fuck Barnes and Noble and their shitty packaging. Im just going to get a refund and swing by the shop for them. I like hardcovers because Im always afraid of damaging TPBs. But its not that big of a deal either way
Angel Ross
Which of the ASM omnis, user?
Justin Bell
52 looks like just the kind of thing I want on my shelf fuck is it about?
Matthew Evans
It follow several lesser known DC heroes through individual adventures, week by week over the course of year within the DC universe. During the year in question Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are off the grid. I can't really do it justice, though. It is very, very good.
Juan Nguyen
Steve/Ditko 1-38. Also not too long ago I got hardcovers of The Gauntlet vols 1-3. Debating if I should get the last 2 and Grim Hunt
Connor Barnes
the gap between infinite crisis and everything else (every book except 52 had a timeskip directly after IC - 52 is what happens between it).
the main characters are ralph dibney, black adam, booster gold, and the question. each of their stories are self-contained but bleed into each other occasionally (think Seven Soldiers)
Luis Nelson
The 1st volume showed promise, 2 and 3 bored me but I feel obligated to finish out the series even though its ongoing, anyways I enjoyed most of my shelf including the bendis new avengers because it was before he fully went to shit. I'm just looking to expand my tastes as well so I'll read just about any medium
Joshua Gutierrez
I read the Ditko book and when I got to the end; I started over and read it again.
Chase Richardson
It's only partly Morrison. It's somewhat unnecessary and not the greatest story ever or anything, but it's still pretty enjoyable.
Cooper Price
Do any of the trades have the digital comics, or are those hardcover exclusive?
Alexander Walker
It's such a fucking shame about that k6bd trade.
Colton James
Nice Will have to pick it up once I finish off multiversity.
Sebastian Gray
Early birthday presnts for myself. Might pick up one or two more things on the weekend
Chase Davis
Repostin because I haven't got anything since
Brayden Taylor

>Dredd badge >No Dredd complete case files
Except for that, awesome little collection you got there.
Benjamin Bell
is time clock the first eotmc thing you read?
Oliver Gomez
How do you like the HC Nailbiter? I have been thinking about picking it up but plan on waiting until the series ends.
