    Late August to now were busy buying wise. Perfect storm of sales and pre-sales in a short period of time. I will take a picture sometime. Right now I need to get a new bookcase as my books have started to take over my living room so I look more a hardcover hoarder than a collector. I am still am amateur compared to some collections I have seen here.

    Agreed. As I was inspecting my shipment my wife commented how much prettier she thought the book looked without the dust jacket. I have to agree with her.

    She wasn't enthused with the Lady Mechanika cover image though. Went so far as to call it "soft porn" to which I told her a bustier and mid riff showing is not soft porn. I'm chalking that reaction up to Post-Partum and having a 9 week old baby girl now. I handed her the book and challenged her to find "soft porn" inside.
    Frankly some of the bedroom scenes in the Atlantis Chronicles book would've been more soft porn but she wasn't worried about Aquaman!! LOL!

    Well after reading some of Cataclysm and RTNML, not really. Knightfall v1 is still in shrink wrap waiting for subsequent volumes, but my excitement was leveled sampling this other material.

    I am, although this is probably the weakest of the the trilogy. That said, I don't think I've read all of these issues previously. I'm more excited, however, for the B/R omnibus by Tomasi!

    Absolutely! That and Akira for me this week. Might be my last books for the year (have my eye on some other stuff) so may as well make it count.

    Yes indeed, will be great to finally read the full story of "The Search" in a Knightfall collection! I already own the 2012 TPB's but am upgrading to the omnis so I can finally have the full story collected

    I'm really impressed with the book and its presentation. It almost feels like an actual time, an archive. Its gorgeous. And the story is magnificent. Excellent purchase

    I'm quite interested in the B/R omnibus, but I've already sacrificed meals to buy Akira
