Is tenement standard size hardcover
Always see new books!
Thanks for watching Mark!
Really nice haul. I’d like to own most of what you bought.
Thanks David. I stayed in budget!
Bone Orchard order goes Bone Orchard Preview Free Comic Book Day, The Passageway, Ten Thousand Black Feathers, and Tenement. (Also in my own head canon I put Gideon Falls before all of those)
Thanks! i LOVED Gideon Falls!
Not interested after the first volume. It was ok, but lost steam quickly.
It really is true that grabbing an audience/reader is harder than holding one.
Those 2 bottom boxes are monsters! Great pick ups and great intro Larry!
Yes...the one was pretty empty though. IST doesn't mind packing the extra space full so that helps!
Great haul , Larry.
Thanks Deathtone!
Great intro 😂
Thanks!
A lot of people picking up that Corbens Den book . I like his art on Conan but not sure I've read any other corben
Gotta warn ya...he was totally obsessed with ENORMOUS BREASTS. But otherwise the art is just fantastic in a bizarre way and the stories are trippy and wild.
@@LarrysLibrary yea just based on the videos I've seen he definitely created some interesting world on this den book
I have the first three but I am missing Captain America white! We should be getting a Wolverine & Gambit gallery edition by Loeb and Sale next year!
Oh yeah I forgot about that when I did the unboxing. I have that on my buy list
I still haven't made up my mind on Justice League vs Godzilla. It's in my watchlist for now! Happy that Den 2 is finally out, I believe that was delayed for quite a while.
Yeah I think they pushed it back a bunch
I am making the noise of those green martian toys in toy story whilst watching this video, Woooaaawww!
Hah! Nice
I have none of those... yet. 😐
well get to ordering!
Nice haul. I think are orders each month are almost identical. The Bone Orchard Mythos can be read in any order but the release order is: Prelude:Shadow Eater FCBD One-Shot The Passageway Ten Thousand Black Feathers Tenement
Thanks for the list!
Awesome shirt!💪🏻
Thanks! I do love it
Impressive packing job, by the company you ordered from!!
Yes they never let me down on that
This NEEDS a new printing.
This is also reprinted in the slightly smaller trim sized Uncanny X-Men Omnibus volume 3
Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome. Thanks for watching!
I'm with you on the art it's not my favorite but doesnt ruin the experience great review
There are certain panels/pages that are just awesome others less so.
Also am I the only one that doesn’t get how IST hasn’t sponsored Larry yet!?!?!?? Come on Cam!!!
Hah....I reached out to them a few months ago and they told me they were not looking for anymore sponsorship deals at this time.
Love hearing an experienced and knowledge nerd cover a modern book. Great video Larry as usual!
Hah-hah! Thanks man!
Superb top ten picks, Avengers 198 .. what a roster of talent and a fun issue. The Micronauts and Man-Thing, one of my favourite stories too. I hope Shogun Warriors gets collected, with ROM Micronauts and Godzilla, anything seems possible these days.
I'd love Shogun Warriors in a fat Gallery Edition!
I want to watch the video but don’t want spoilers. 😢😢😢😢
Hah-hah! Quick read book one!
I really disliked the first deluxe for this book. The writing didn’t work for me at all. Felt like it was written for teens and there was so much going on that made no sense. Like a principal telling a kid to punch someone, Erica (who is a master monster hunter) going into a store being clueless about what she’s getting and ends up buying a tiny hedge trimmer to kill monsters, her being a punk and having a terrible attitude towards the cops while being questions and nothing happening to her, the one guy being drunk on the job and admitting it and nothing happens to him, the insufferable boy entering the cave after being told many times not to and guess what happens??? Endless terrible writing decisions like this. I tend to be more critical than others though
Interesting! The hedge trimmer thing WAS stupid. I think I was intrigued by the plot and monster lore that I kind of ignored the silly tropes.
@@LarrysLibrary I can ignore some of it, but was just constantly rolling my eyes at all the stupid things happening due to poor writing.
Just got this and I'm glad to hear the quality continues from the first book.
I liked it a lot Eric. If you liked the first one you should like this too.
Just started watching your channel great stuff
Thanks!
I haven't read the first - but here because I love your videos but ok I am out
Hah! Thanks so much!
Great review, Larry.
Thanks Deathtone!
Why the tpb when compendium are cheaper
This set was a gift from my daughter. I don't know when/where they were purchased.
@@LarrysLibrary Going to get compendium as some volumes of tpb are out of print and deluxe is the same also expensive
Fantastic four 226 is the ff issue you was thinking of that had Shogun warriors. I read it but it didn’t mean much to me because I hadn’t read shogun warriors.
Thank you!
Cool list! Mine would have had some Star Wars and Ghost Rider on it
YES....I loved the OG Star Wars comic and Ghost Rider from this era too!
@@LarrysLibrary Specifically from 1980 SW #35 (cover reminds me a lot of X-Men #4) and any of the Empire Strikes back issues
I agree, Peter David is hands down, the best Hulk writer ever!!
Yes....not much of a contest really. I don't think any single writer has written half as much Hulk.
I agree with 4 of your choices, never got into the giant lizard, though. Also, have to mention, the Beatles are the most overrated groups of all time, sorry...
Hah-hah. We don't have to agree on everything. That's why there are so many bands and so many comics!
For me, 1980 was an amazing year for comics. I collected all of the Moon Knight issues, my sister collected the Savage She-Hulk comics. I really enjoyed reading Marvel comics from that period of time, and they inspired me to become an artist and a writer. Thank you for bringing back fond memories of my childhood with your marvelous channel.
Thank YOU for watching! Glad you enjoyed this. I am thinking about going on to 1981 and so on in future Top Tens
@@LarrysLibrary Definitely look forward to watching them Larry. Thanks again.
@@TheMukeshGandhi You are welcome
Check out PTSD Radio and Gou Tanabe’s Lovecraft adaptations
Sounds interesting
Great memories!! I had them all!!! Excellent art and stories!!!
Thanks! So much happened that year!
Great taste in comics and music.
Thanks!
This is a really fun topic. I think I started buying comics in 1982
Another GREAT year!
In that X-Men comic #139, was that Doctor Octopus's tentacles that had grabbed and caught Storm ? Or were those tentacles part of the X-Men's combat room exercise equipment ? They sure as hell looked very much like Doc Ock's tentacles.
I think it was the Danger Room. Could have been programmed to mimic villains though?
2:01 I love Man-Thing too! He's such an underrated character with a lot of story potential. He was featured in a good amount of issues last year and I hope that trend continues so we see more of him in the future! Edit: Shogun Warriors came about a little less than a decade before Transformers, I believe.
Yes would love more Man-Thing!
Looking forward to Godzilla
Loved micronaauts, an older neighbour game me the whole run. Have you read any of the 1980s DC Vigilante run?
Awesome! I don't think I have read any of Vigilante
Man, that X-Men 139 is still an iconic cover. Kitty Pryde's introduction is still my favorite run of the X-Men, and she's my favorite X-Man as well. But you said you were 12 in 1980... which means I'm older than you. Oh well. If you'll excuse me, it's time for my nap.
Hah-hah! I LOVE a good nap!
Great video!
Thanks William!
First off nice music picks. Devo Clash Joan Jett 🤘 I have my copy of Micronauts #7 signed by Golden and Neal Adams. Adams helped on the cover. I was reading more DC comics at this time. So Suoer Friends, Justice League Superman Family, World's Finest Comics, Superboy, Batman and the DC horror comics were more up my alley. But ROM #1 I still own my beat up copy from that time period. Love your picks though and some of them got into my collection a little later on.
Very cool! I was never a big DC guy. I think I let Stan Lee's propaganda in Bullpen Bulletins get to me at a very early age!
I love videos like this Larry. Comic book history through your eyes. The rise of the comics and the talent on comics during this time was probably so cool to witness!
Thanks man! In a movie this is where I would lower my glasses and say "I've seen some SHIT". :)
This was a year before I got back into mainstream Comics but it's nice to hear about these issues. Also, Congratulations to you Grandpa. Must be a nice feeling.
Thanks William! And it IS a very nice feeling.
Great list, Larry.
Thanks Deathtone!
I treasured my Shogun Warrior toys. Die cast metal, baby!
Oh yeah! The little 3.5 inch tall ones? I think I had a Combatra!
