>Hellboy in Hell and other stories
>IDW

Or is that one of those artists editions?

>shelf thread
>doesn't stick to the useful thread format

sadly no one does.

artist edition

ah all right

...

Placed the order for Claremont's X-Men omnis 2 and 3 not fifteen minutes ago. Got the 1st Johns Green Lantern coming in tomorrow. Rise of the Black Flame is already on my desk, waiting to be read.
I'm thinking I've got June covered as far as reading is concerned.

>Got the 1st Johns Green Lantern coming in tomorrow.
I wish there was a GLC omni as well

nice hellboy stuff man

...

where is the capeshit?!
GET OUT
REEEEEEEEEEE

cool

Bump

Watchmen, Warlock, Jack Staff...

Solid.
When I was freshman I had pretty much nothing. GL rebirth, a few random Batman Trades, and that's it.

Oh shit all of these were you?
I assumed only OP's image.

Where's a freshman be able to afford all this?

Its not much, but Im working on expanding it.

Not pictured is all the ones i've gifted friends, of whick KC is next on the chopping block.

Forgot the image.

I like rex mundi

Only new addition so far is the Rick & Morty Vol.1 - it's huge, same size as the Hellboy Library Eds - and I'm still waiting on the other deliveries for my birthday.

Its actually the one book there I've yet to read, got it for my birthday a while back and i've never gotten round to cracking it open.

>cracking it open
please don't

kek

Nice collection. A bit jealous of that Neat Stuff box set. I already got all the trades with the entire content of Neat Stuff that was published in the 90's so I don't really have a good enough reason to buy the box other than the look of it.

What the fuck, that Black Science HC is HUGE

Fuck off geek!

Yeah I don't like double dipping either although if Fanta puts out a Hate slipcase I'm probably gonna get it to replace the paperbacks

>Joe the Barbarian deluxe
good choice there.

>Essential Wolverine's font is the wrong way
really activates my OCD

noticed afterwards that you actually wrote that in the post but I had the image open and didn't see that there was anything written under it.

I would maybe do that too since my Hate paperbacks are worn out from too much reading.

My latest purchases. Waiting for One More Year by Simon Hanselmann and A New Low by Johnny Ryan.

Just finished thet Veryigo Destiny book. Damn that was nice and gothic (as in old era and art style).

Recent pick ups
Mercy and The Pyscho are from lcs

*Vertigo

My to read/part way through stack. Although i think I'm missing a couple. Most of those were 2.50 except Constantine and Tipping Point.

Oops. Pic here

...

>Fourth Power
Someone asked about this in a previous shelf thread. It's good. It's a pretty standard European scifi story, but I bought it for Gimenz's art and I'm not disappointed.
Why does Love and Rockets bore me to tears? I can recognize that it's objectively a "good comic," but it just does NOTHING for me.

Gimenz is fantastic. Bumped out of pic is Leo Roa cause it's too fucking tall a book.

Love your Jodo collection, I recommend getting Son of the Gun too

ive been collecting all throughout high school

got these from used bookstores over the past two days

> all that Gunsmith Cats
Nice find

I pose to you the eternal question:
Jaime or Gilbert?

>gunsmith cats
excellent taste

My Shelf, nothin new... I spend too much on floppies cuz I have a problem.

I keep meaning to look into custom binding for my floppies

Jaime, but Human Diastrophism to me is the best thing ever done in Love and Rockets yet there's a pretty consistent decline after that for me up until Gilbert started doing all those minis leading up to V2. He has since then been doing a good job not just in L&R but in most of his projects even though he's never hit that peak again so while I think Gilbert at his best is better than Jaime he doesn't hit that mark often enough for me to says he's overall better than Jaime who I has Wigwam Bam, 100 Rooms, The Love Bunglers under his belt. I think Jaime not stretching himself to other things has been better for him in regards to maintaining a consistent quality over the the last 30+ years.

Its really expensive and a semi-complicated process, which is why I'm just going with binders and inserts, need to sort all my floppies out though ive got a bunch to probably sell/donate

I'm getting some taxes back this month so I was hoping to buy some nice stuff, but it seems like every second hand seller on Amazon UK has decided to stop shipping abroad (or at least to here). And Book Depository doesn't have half of anything.

1/2

Hey I finally got off my ass, cleaned up shelf, and got new material so I can post again.

2/2

New stuff came today

That reminds me, my (signed and sketched from when I met Jaime in London at Paul gravett's comika festival talk/signing) copy of the Jaime art book has been lent out to a friend (I usually keep it next to the Clowes Abrahms book, hence the unsatisfactory lean on that shelf)

Oh shit jelly af at that Dirty Stories vol 3 with the amazing Columbia cover! Where didja get that and how much did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

>All that Alien and Predator stuff

You alright, nigga.

Shame you wasted money on the GoTG omni, since that's already collected in all your War of Kings omnis. Or is that Bendis's run?

They also have to cut the spines off to bind the book properly so you end up with even more gutter-loss than you would have had.

I mean, they look nice on a shelf and theres lots of old comics out there that haven't been collected in any way by publishers but its a very specific need.

Its the Jim Valentino Omni with the 90's stuff.

oh all right.

(1/2) Recent buys, loving the damaged item discount on IST and getting books from thrift stores on eBay. You literally just pay the cost of shipping, and use a hair dryer and Goo Gone to get any library stickers off.

(2/2) Rearranged the oversized books and am pretty much out of room now, I've gotta stop. What are y'all reading today?

New52 DC Universe Presents: Deadman. I was somehow under the impressing when I read it last time that it's bad so I wanted to get it out of the way and read it first but it's actually pretty good.

I've said it before but I fucking love your shelf, great books and aesthetic
