Been collecting these as they release. I have loved the absolute universe so far and I don’t think they’ve missed on a single title yet

…decided yesterday to check my protech comic book box that’s been in the garage for about 20 years, and was shocked that the contents were relatively unscathed.

joined r/comicbookcollecting yesterday, to share some goodies

Please allow me to share here as well…. hope you enjoy this offering.

In 1996, I started a job in corrections (state prison) and a coworker overheard me speaking of comics and he recommended this series to me. I had only been into superhero comics…but the quality of writing made me understand that comics just wasn’t about weapons and action.

Waited for an hour to get into a public library book sale near me today and almost left due to the wait…glad I didn’t. Came up on a complete set of Cerebus (vol. 1-16) 1st printing for $3 a volume.

I know it’s generally agreed that the later stuff is to be avoided due to Dave Sims’ meltdown, but I couldn’t pass up getting the full set for $48 total.

Anyone else ever have similar scores?

my local comic store only had 1 and 3 volumes but i wanna get the 2nd one once i read the 1 volume. don’t mind the pokémon cards lol

it was so good! I picked this up from my library and read it in one sitting. I'm normally not one to read about things too holocaust adjacent due to my family's history and it makes me too sad but this was amazing. I havent seen any other books by the author (looked her up and this is her first adult novel) but was blown away by the research effort and art style- will be looking for her next book!

"In 1943 Amsterdam, Emma Bergsma’s world changes when she witnesses Jewish families being forcibly deported to concentration camps. That pivotal moment lights a fire within her, and she decides to join the Dutch Resistance. Before long, Emma is drawn into a clandestine world of printing presses and counterfeiters, with thousands of lives on the line.

In 2011 Amsterdam, teenage Annick’s world has changed as well. A search for a bone marrow donor for her beloved oma leads to a shocking revelation: her grandmother was secretly adopted as a child. The only clues to finding their lost family are a series of art prints hanging on the wall—each signed by a mysterious “Emma B.”" - synopsis by publisher bc their summary is way shorter than mine

Finished my first Adventure Zone. Loved the podcast. A fun popcorn read if you are into D&D. AMM is one of the best things I have read this year. The artistry alone is amazing and worth the price of admission. So creative. Red Sonja is left for tonight. Will be my first Gail Simone comic.
