    I definitely would! I have a video review floating around on my channel, but they are a mixed bag. Some of them are really good though - Weeping Angels of Mons, for example.

    I have 2 jobs, really 3 as I Ebay regularly.
    A Mon-Fri job, a Sat/Sun weekend gig every other weekend(have to get some downtime/family time in).
    I don't do this work just to support my comic HC/Omni hobby so don't jump to any conclusions.

    I'm married with child + mortgage and everything that comes with that. However, my work ethic does allow for appropriate entertainment budget.

    As a student I would never have been in the position to have the freedom in this hobby I currently do either.

    Then I'm in for a treat, since I still haven't got around to reading those.
    "Life and time of scrooge mcduck" is a must. "A little something extra" is more of less a scrooge movie in comic form!

    Rosa and barks are great. They can tell in ten pages more story then today's comics can in 4 issues!

    Amazon marketplace, books a million $5 trades and ollies DC hardcovers for $4 are a great start.

    I have two jobs so i have some extra Money every month that is not essential to my bills.
    Plus i cut some other expenses to make me have more Money to buy more comic books,so for example i would at least buy one sport newspaper every day,now with the soccer championship being in the summer break i don´t see much of the need to get a newspaper every day,just in that i am saving a bit.Without counting with the times i used to buy two newspapers a day (A sport newspaper and a general newspaper) so now unless is really a news i am interested in Reading more in depth i just read the news online.
    And i don´t go out that often as i used to because now i have less free time due my jobs so that Money can go sometimes to comic books and will not be that much of a issue in my monthly budget.

    My first post here after lurking for about a year.
    While relative small to some of the other ones in this thread, I'd say it's growing at a steady pace, considering I only seriously began collecting comics in 2015, and omnibusses in 2016. But for my age (18) I think it's looking good.

    I'd be curious to know the weight of all of your Star Wars Lego :P

    Yeah, growing up in Denmark you just can't avoid the ducks. They're some of the only comics readily available here, but boy are they available! They have a weekly series, a monthly double-sized special, a monthly and a twice-annually, epic-sized trade, plus more, all easily found at the checkout in every grocery store, supermarket, and gas station. The box sets are a limited edition, complete Don Rosa collection + semi-biography. They also include several of his childhood drawings, and his first duck-story (which is definitely NOT safe for children. (Hewey, Dewey, and Louie have become drug addicts)), which he made in his late teens, and some other exclusive material. Unfortunately they're only available in the Scandinavian languages, as they were made by Egmont. Great books.

    Doctor Who!! Doctor Who!! I love it! I laughed out loud when you said you didn't have Walking Dead v5 HC and it was really irritating you. It drives me nuts when I'm missing a book too.

    You said you don't read much Marvel stuff but have you read Morrison's X-Men or Slott's Amazing Spiderman? How about Morrison's Batman run?
