The Collected Editions Shelf Porn: Show me the goods!

[Andru]

Also that Inferno OHC. There are maybe a dozen OOP books that I really want, but Inferno tops the list. Well done, Andru.

That was actually the first OHC I ever purchased. This was before I got the collecting bug & was naive. I bought it while still in print only because I was trying to collect all of Magik's appearances.

When the book actually came in the mail I couldn't believe how big it was compared to the New Mutant's Classics I had already purchased.

Then slowly I fell into the abyss of trying to collect every issue of X-Men up until Age of Apocalypse, then came Avengers, Spider-Man, etc...

I had no idea what I was getting into

OK, decided to share my Marvel Collection!

Still working on my DC & Independent shelves, so not up to showing those off just yet.

Thank you both !!

Very nice collection Andru! I've been tempted by the omnibus', but I'm put off by them only collecting the first portion of things. I don't want to have to get the rest in a different format :P

Thanks! Yeah, I have a few instances of that. Still holding out on a second volume of New Avengers by Bendis before I cave and buy the complete collections.

I love your books and you have a great collection. On a side note, are you worried at all about stacking them on top of each other like that?

[zevious zoquis]

haha...I'm worried because as it is right now I have the Marvel Omni's stacked higher than I'd like. But in general, no I've decided I feel itt's better this way for the big books than vertical. I'm hoping to upgrade to the slim Billy shelves from Ikea soon and I plan to buy a few extra shelves so I can keep the stacks smaller. For now, I rotate the books so none are on the bottom too long.

Is Andrus referring to the "X-Infernus" OHC? EDITED to correct myself after spotting the The Inferno OHCs.

Despite its giant and unwieldy size everytime I see the Colossal Conan on someone's shelf I kick myself for passing on it when it came out.

[zevious zoquis]

Heh...I just love both of those gigantic volumes! Why would you make a comic book collection that huge? Because you can!

It helps though that neither of them cost me more than $70 cdn...

Honestly though they are actually really nice books and I don't find them all that hard to read.

awayne83, do you have multiple copies of some books? i feel like you might but i cant tell for sure even with zooming in.
