[QUOTE=Raffi Ol D'Arcy;2701089]So it looks like you're back to collecting Omnis and OHCs with a vengeance.[/QUOTE]
Well just at the moment I am, buying replacement books for damaged ones. I also discovered a few titles I have in tpb are now out in OHC so have "upgraded" them.

not long ago (or was it more than a year?) it seemed like you are selling off your collection except a select few but it's almost like you got the collecting bug again :D

Yeah I did sell quite a few OOP books off a while back. I guess I've always tried to keep a solid core of books I enjoy and will want to re-read. I can get carried away and buy books to try them out. I'm only adding more Hickman books at this stage, which I probably shouldn't have sold off in the first place haha, the rest is just upgrading tpbs. I'm also selling some books so my collection is probably going to be even smaller.

I split my books into as many categories as i have rows on my shelves atm they go X-Men 1960-1999, X-Men 2001-present, Cosmic Marvel, Mystic Marvel, General Marvel, Spider-Man, DC.
Whenever I get something new I just shift the books along abit as I prefer to go chronological by series.

I split mine by publisher and then character/team, such as IDW > TMNT and Transformers or DC > Aquaman/Batman etc. With books I do genre > author > series, such as fantasy > Gemmell/Weeks/Abercrombe or crime > Gerritsen/Cornwell.

Format>Publisher>Alphabetical by Title

It's cool seeing how different we all arrange our books. I was thinking of changing how I arrange mine into format (like all omnis), but then I changed my mind again and decided to keep them how I have them. It just wouldn't feel right.
-
I'm in the middle of doing it by publisher/era/character
eg: golden age dc > batman > flash > green lantern etc. Then silver age, bronze age and so on. Then the same with Marvel.
But then I feel compelled to group all my favourite writers books together immaterial of publisher and everything goes out the window...ha. First world problems.
