[QUOTE=canadianaidan64;249911]Great collection ohmshalone, it's good of you to pass some of your books along to the younger generation. I have a 2 year old nephew and I can't wait until he's old enough that I can share my collection with him. He's going to think I'm such a cool uncle :cool:. If you have any unwanted books left over consider donating them to your local library, it's a great way of sharing your books and you can still rent them and read them anytime you want to.[/QUOTE]
Thanks. I've been collecting for less than a year now, so my collection is not just expanding, but evolving. Some tpb's which I really liked (like 100 Bullets v.1) are going to be given away so I can purchase the deluxe hardcovers. I also plan on completing Y - The Last Man, of course (one of my favourite stories, in and out of comic books), but I don't want to read through 5 volumes of the same story in one week, so I'm spreading those purchases out within half a year.
I decided to start collecting when I realized that I'm spending so much money on digital purchases, I may as well own the books physically. I appreciate the art way more when I see it on paper. Even with regards to this thread: I'm sure everyone here would agree that these pictures of our shelves don't do our collections justice. You have to have them right in front of you to truly appreciate them.
After I'm done with superheroes and American comics (probably in a couple of years), I may start checking out European stuff. I dabbled with Death Note and really liked the first volume, but my interest seems to be waning the further in I go. I also tried out Attack on Titan vol. 1, and thought it was just above mediocre. So, so far my trials with non-American stuff hasn't really been encouraging.

Wow, long time lurker, finally got around to taking some acceptable pictures! I kind of went overboard so I'll just post some basics and then link to the album.

Dang I really like your art/prints/whatever those pictures in frames are.

Nice choice of statues! I'm jealous of that premium format Harley Quinn.

Congrats to John Keyt, who's posted his stuff here for being featured in this week's Shlf Porn feature on Robot 6/CBR. I'm still jealous of your spinner rack John.

I've been a lurker for a long time as well. I just recently moved into a new place, and it's been my first chance to get the whole collection nicely organized:

It's pretty modest compared to some, but I've only been collecting for about 18 months.
