Great lists! Here are 10 of my favorite reads from 2019 (in no particular order): American Carnage Sara (TKO) Babyteeth Ether (Matt Kindt) Batman Creature of the Night Black Badge (Matt Kindt) Harrow County She Could Fly Vol. 1 Kill or Be Killed Dead Hand (Kyle Higgins) Wish you all the best for 2020! ❤️
I was an avid reader of trades and collected editions for years but haven’t read any in literally about 5 years and from watching your video I’ve just ordered These Savage Shores and Kill Or Be Killed. Thank you so much for giving me the hunger to read trades again!
Been so cool to discover you guys this year! My best reads: Hickman X DCeased HC Monstress HC Bad weekend HC LOEG the Tempest HC Black Hammer Library The Fourth Power HC Saga Book 3 Batman by Grant Morrison Omni Head Lopper vol 3
The Deluxe Edition I would love a Chip Zdarsky Spider-Man Omnibus collecting his run on Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man and, Spider-Man Life Story.
I didn't pick up too much this year but definitely Immortal Hulk OHC Vol. 1 Naomi Season 1 November(OGN)Vol. 1 Umbrella Academy Apocalypse Suite Library Edition Umbrella Academy Dallas Library Edition Were my favorite's of the year. Happy Holidays guys, hope y'all have a good one!
Thanks so much for your hard work this year guys, you bring so much joy into a lot of people's lives! Here's to 2020 NMC. That monstress book is gorgeous, I have the DCBS exclusive variant ;)
i know Im randomly asking but does someone know of a method to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me
These are some great picks! I decided to pick up Monstress and Kill or Be Killed on y'alls recommendation. And Maddie was right Omar! You should have gotten the pretty variant of Monstress 😂
Great video! Omar ur my guide to what I will buy!! Would love video on top 10 most anticipated reads for 2020 so I can see clearly (2020 wink wink) what to buy in the new year. Thanks again Omar. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and family!
These Savage Shores is definitely my #1. I got it as a gift for a couple folks. I also just finished reading The Authority omni this past week for the first time: epic. If you guys like First Second, you need to read PTSD; my #2 book this year.
In no particular order: Batman Eternal omnibus v1, Amazing Spiderman omni vol 4, Conan the Barbarian vol1 &2, Lucifer omnibus v1, Epic Collection X-men vol. 17, Epic collection Fantastic Four vol 4, Immortal Hulk ohc v.1, Thor by Jason Aaron complete collection vol.1, Mignola world stuff omnis (Witchfinder or Baltimore). If I had to show a person one comic out of any of those, would probably be the Immortal Hulk one. Excellent story/art/modern. Was a great year in reading/collecting comics!
I've never heard of critical role, but the comic art caught my eye so I picked it up, didn't expect much. But holy shit what a great story, wonderful, easy to follow art and great comedic characters. Read the hardcover with series 1&2 and I just want more content
Awesome video guys!! Some books in there I haven't got to buying or reading yet but I'd love Marvel to bring out the Zdarsky Spidey book in OHC. I'm hoping and praying that they do it in 2020 so I don't have to give in and get the trade. All the best for the coming year and keep bringing out those brilliant videos.
1. Monstress Book 1, the Barnes and Noble cover plus it's signed by Marjorie Liu. I have the normal cover too but that B&N is perfect plus the red foil spine is far superior to the gold of original and DCBS. 2. Don Rosa's Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck Vols. 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 box set reprints. Wish Fantagraphics would do Vols. 5 & 6 soon. 3. The three Scott Pilgrim thick two in one color trades are so well done and so worth it even though I traded them for the hardcovers, but the trades are for sure the way to get them. 4. Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up With Me. More First Second goodness. 5. Mister Miracle HC would easily have been in the top 3 if it was OHC 6. Saga Book 3 7. Immortal Hulk Vol. 1 8. I Hate Fairyland Vol. 2, felt so right upgrading from the trades. 9. Umbrella Academy Vols. 1 & 2 Library reprint. My first LEs (though Remender books are that size but still). 10. X-Men XXL by Jim Lee even though I'm not a huge X-Men guy but damn. Honorary mention because mine hasn't arrived: Steven Universe All-in-One Edition and Annihilation Omnibus reprint. So excited to own all the cosmic saga, hoping to get either the Infinity Gauntlet box set or a reprint of that to have it all oversized.
Dammiy... every time i watch one of your episodes, i end up buying new stuff on amazon! :D (these savage shores - this time) ladt time i fall in love with East of West.. and oh man i love it, story and art wise.
Great work and thanks for the recommendations! Batman is my all-time beloved character and Grant Morrison is one of my favorite writers, so when DC collected his run in omnibus format I got the first two! I'm still waiting for volume 3.
Great vid. Some cool stuff I wasn't aware of made both your lists. I got my fair share of books this year but a lot was not from 2019. Couldn't do 10. 1. Saga Compendium 1 2. Smashed Story Collection, Junji Ito 3. Savage Sword of Conan omni 1 4. House of X Powers of X OHC 5. Namor omni 6. Lucifer omni 7. Absolute Swamp Thing
hi just found your channel ! thanks for presenting your top ten favourites , learned a lot here and hope to catch up with some of your suggestions . my first video of yours and I so enjoy your love and enthusiasm for the medium ! really well presented . best wishes from Scotland UK
Happy Holidays and thanks for a year full of fun, informative videos! Maddie gave First Second a nice shout-out, so I want to mention of pair of books from earlier in their publishing history that I really enjoyed, namely Kampung Boy and Town Boy by the cartoonist Lat. These books are a warm, humorous look back at Lat's childhood and youth in Malaysia. The first book shows his Muslim family living in a village (or kampung) in rural Malaysia in the 1950s. The second depicts his teen years after his family moves to an industrializing town. Both are just great.
Love this video and both of your opinions! Omar you and I have a lot of the similar tastes man! Immortal Hulk is series of the year again cuz I believe it was in 2018 no? It’s a total comeback for the character and very original too as a horror suspense book but delivers on the action as well. I have been collecting the single issues of that. You’ve sold me on the marvel horror omnibus I love horror. The Swamp thing by Alan Moore absolute edition is the best collected edition this year. I know not everyone happy but hey these days that’s common u can’t please everyone! The book tho has made me fall in love with the character again. The Authority is one of my favourite series of all time! It changed comics and I own both Absolute editions which are BEAUTIFUL. I’m almost picked up the omnibus as well. Also I’ve been meaning to get Kill or be Killed the premise is very original and with Ed Brubaker how can you go wrong he always delivers! Thank you both very awesome to hear your opinions :)
Hey guys thanks for re-igniting my love for comics! It would be great if you could add a list of the names in the description ...it would be really helpful in looking them up Cheers!🙂
Merry X-Mas, guys; greetings from Germany & thanks for a year of great comics-related videos (found the channel while searching for Conan stuff back when the "Colossal King Conan" had just been released). Faves of the year include: Amazing Spider-Man by JMS Omni #1 tons of Conan-related books (Barbarian, Savage Sword omnis + the French Conan album series) + the Red Sonja by Simone omni (wish they'd just release the old Roy Thomas years in that format as well) Baltimore Omnibus #1 Berserk Deluxe Ed. 1+2 Superman Secret Origin Deluxe Ed. Wonder Woman by Rucka #3 (Still want an omnibus of that, though) Saga HC #3 ...just got the Hickman HoX/PoX HC yesterday, might be a candidate, too? Haven't had the time to read it yet, though...
I'm a big fan of Critical Roll and that Vox Machina trade is awesome! The story is a blast to follow and Critical Roll is very entertaining! Beautiful art and the story isn't half bad either.. I recommend it.. Happy New Year you guys!
I picked up those Berserk Deluxes from your review. Have been a fan of the manga for a while, but decided to start collecting the HCs w these releases. Dark Horse knocked it out of the park!
W.M Thank you for your info on the BN. addition of "Monstress book 1" . I was lucky enough to pick up a BN signed copy on ebay. Really looking forward to reading it. OH by the way tell Omar his a bad influence on me, I have spent 1k just this month on OMNIBUS books. oh well you can"t take it with you. LOL . love the channel.
Hey Omar when you were talking about the poor binding on the Monstress Book One, which variant were you talking about..? The Image variant or the Barnes and Nobles one..? I was gonna order the Barnes and Nobles signed copy and I want make sure it's not a wrong choice.
@@NearMintCondition Oh man..!! I was really looking forward to buying the B&N Signed copy but now I have to pass on it. I can't stand the thought of a poor bound book.
Just got the Barnes and Noble exclusive copy of Monstress in the mail today and I can confirm, still pretty bad binding. Looks to be a issue with the gluing and the ribbon. It wants to make a triangle with the point in the middle even though I did my normal spine stretch, very mousetrappy at the edges (Great video though, have come back to it several times)
I’m new to this channel and loving it. The lady should show a bit of the art inside, I had to go somewhere else to take a peek on the books she recommended. Maybe next time? :)
Love these top 10's.!! How many volumes are there in the monstress book 1..?? I'm now on vol 3 but I have to get mine from comixology so I would love to get it in that format..!!
Wish the list was on the description as well. Some of the titles you mention in brief assuming everyone knows what you’re talking about but that might not be the case for some of us.
Sadly my 2019 was spent getting more books than I care to admit. I'm slowly working on getting through my backlog but of the books that I did get the ones that I did read and enjoyed were Authority(had to jump into Planetary right after just because),Immortal Hulk Vol.1 HC, and Spider-Man: Life Story.
ruclips.net/video/1yUwX1rR-zc/видео.html I would start watching this. Also watch that video he mentions at beginning: Ten things I need to know about 2000AD.
I have read 2000AD and especially Judge Dredd and ABC-warriors. Also I have RO-BUSTERS collections, which are like beginning stories for two of ABC-warrior robots. I They have 2000AD ABC ongoing video series. It’s really big universe and it does overlap sometimes. Like overlap in time. Judge Dredd happens before ABC-warriors.
If i buy the Secret Invasion Omnibus will it double dip with my cosmic saga..? That maybe a stupid question but I am new to the scene of comics. Also, will buying the Secret Invasion paper back suffice or the Omnibus worth the spent..?
Secret Invasion is really more like New Avengers volume 2. It won't double dip into any of the cosmic saga. And please ask away. No such thing as a stupid question.
I would have included the Monstress volume, but that glued binding really soured me, compared to the Gail Simone Red Sonja, seeing what Dynamite could give us at the same price point, Image really looses credibility from this. So in no particular order: Kill or be Killed Are You Listening? Absolute Swamp Thing Lucifer Omnibus The Tea Dragon Festival Lumberjanes Deluxe 5 Gail Simone's Red Sonja Absolute Arkham Asylum Harley Quinn Omnibus vol. 3 I Hate Fairyland vol. 2 Black Magic vol. 1 The Authority
Not in Omnibus yet but The Mighty Thor ohc 1,2,3 was a good series that I recently read but what it really comes down to is reading the entirety of DC Rebirth because it is all good although I think that the sappy Batman by Tom King. Nobody wants to be in love ever again because love is junk. I think that he makes the mistake in not letting it fade away, like it should, but maybe not completely gone. I thought that Scott was nuts like Morrison and sometimes Stephen King but Tom King is a crazed joker. He is the joker.
God might kill Tom King. I haven't finished reading it. It started good and than that love stuff took over which was okay but it goes too far, way too far. I don't think that God likes that.
Near Mint Condition I didn't send it back to IST because I feel it's not their fault. DC needs to send me a new book, no wonder they bury their customer service support deep within layers and layers of bullshit on their website
i didnt like Monstress and cant understand why other praise it sooo much. To me the world is strange with all females, the traveling around of the characters is chaotic, and the whole premise seems like such a beaten theme and in this book was nothing new about it. I read only 3 volumes but really cant even force myself into reading next.
Great lists! Here are 10 of my favorite reads from 2019 (in no particular order):
American Carnage
Sara (TKO)
Babyteeth
Ether (Matt Kindt)
Batman Creature of the Night
Black Badge (Matt Kindt)
Harrow County
She Could Fly Vol. 1
Kill or Be Killed
Dead Hand (Kyle Higgins)
Wish you all the best for 2020! ❤️
Love this list and it reminds me I need to read Ether and American Carnage.

My list definitely includes Marvel's Conan and Timely's Greatest lines.
Those Timely's are restored so beautifuly.
These are some great picks! I decided to pick up Monstress and Kill or Be Killed on y'alls recommendation. And Maddie was right Omar! You should have gotten the pretty variant of Monstress 😂
Great video! Omar ur my guide to what I will buy!! Would love video on top 10 most anticipated reads for 2020 so I can see clearly (2020 wink wink) what to buy in the new year. Thanks again Omar. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and family!

These Savage Shores is definitely my #1. I got it as a gift for a couple folks. I also just finished reading The Authority omni this past week for the first time: epic.
If you guys like First Second, you need to read PTSD; my #2 book this year.
I got PTSD. Now it's time to read it.
Merry Christmas! I really enjoy re-reading Berserk on a larger format
Merry Christmas to you! I agree!
In no particular order: Batman Eternal omnibus v1, Amazing Spiderman omni vol 4, Conan the Barbarian vol1 &2, Lucifer omnibus v1, Epic Collection X-men vol. 17, Epic collection Fantastic Four vol 4, Immortal Hulk ohc v.1, Thor by Jason Aaron complete collection vol.1, Mignola world stuff omnis (Witchfinder or Baltimore). If I had to show a person one comic out of any of those, would probably be the Immortal Hulk one. Excellent story/art/modern. Was a great year in reading/collecting comics!

This video is absolutely awesome. Great picks and some great new stuff for me to put on my wishlist.
Thank you so much for the kind words. :)
1. Monstress Book 1, the Barnes and Noble cover plus it's signed by Marjorie Liu. I have the normal cover too but that B&N is perfect plus the red foil spine is far superior to the gold of original and DCBS.
2. Don Rosa's Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck Vols. 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 box set reprints. Wish Fantagraphics would do Vols. 5 & 6 soon.
3. The three Scott Pilgrim thick two in one color trades are so well done and so worth it even though I traded them for the hardcovers, but the trades are for sure the way to get them.
4. Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up With Me. More First Second goodness.
5. Mister Miracle HC would easily have been in the top 3 if it was OHC
6. Saga Book 3
7. Immortal Hulk Vol. 1
8. I Hate Fairyland Vol. 2, felt so right upgrading from the trades.
9. Umbrella Academy Vols. 1 & 2 Library reprint. My first LEs (though Remender books are that size but still).
10. X-Men XXL by Jim Lee even though I'm not a huge X-Men guy but damn.
Honorary mention because mine hasn't arrived: Steven Universe All-in-One Edition and Annihilation Omnibus reprint. So excited to own all the cosmic saga, hoping to get either the Infinity Gauntlet box set or a reprint of that to have it all oversized.
This list is amazing. My honorary list was another 10 books. :) Jim Lee XXL was on there.
@@NearMintCondition Show us that list! 🤣
okay . I'm weak like that.
That was time very well spent and a lot of fun! I added two picks to my Amazon wish list for future purchase .
Fantastic!
Dammiy... every time i watch one of your episodes, i end up buying new stuff on amazon! :D (these savage shores - this time) ladt time i fall in love with East of West.. and oh man i love it, story and art wise.

Volume 3 is coming in 2020!
Little Bird hardcover from Image Comics. I can't wait for the follow up series in 2020.
Right off the bat I immediately noticed that swamp thing by alan moore absolute peeking from Maddy's stack 😂😂
Great eyes!
Immortal hulk is the best!
Now that is not an Unpopular opinion!
Marry Christmas Maddie💙
Best people in this world!
Merry Christmas to you!! Thank you for watching and the kind words!

3. Savage Sword of Conan omni 1
4. House of X Powers of X OHC
5. Namor omni

I wish my wife looked at me the way Maddie looks at that Swamp Thing book.
Hahahahaha
Merry X-Mas, guys; greetings from Germany & thanks for a year of great comics-related videos (found the channel while searching for Conan stuff back when the "Colossal King Conan" had just been released).
Faves of the year include:
Amazing Spider-Man by JMS Omni #1
tons of Conan-related books (Barbarian, Savage Sword omnis + the French Conan album series)
+ the Red Sonja by Simone omni (wish they'd just release the old Roy Thomas years in that format as well)
Baltimore Omnibus #1
Berserk Deluxe Ed. 1+2
Superman Secret Origin Deluxe Ed.
Wonder Woman by Rucka #3 (Still want an omnibus of that, though)
Saga HC #3
...just got the Hickman HoX/PoX HC yesterday, might be a candidate, too? Haven't had the time to read it yet, though...
Ernst Stavro Grüß dich, Landsmann!
Wo bestellst du denn deine Comic-Bücher, wenn ich fragen darf?
Thank you for watching and the kind words. Much love from America.
@@maxkernfeld7928 ganz langweilig Amazon, fürchte ich. Gelegentlich halt auch dortige Marketplace-Anbieter. The usual halt. :)
Silver Surfer Black Treasury Edition.
Great book and great edition.
I'm a big fan of Critical Roll and that Vox Machina trade is awesome! The story is a blast to follow and Critical Roll is very entertaining! Beautiful art and the story isn't half bad either.. I recommend it.. Happy New Year you guys!
Happy New Year brother.
Good grief - I tried so hard not to buy a collected edition this month and not I've blown it. Nice choices!
Thank you!
I picked up those Berserk Deluxes from your review. Have been a fan of the manga for a while, but decided to start collecting the HCs w these releases. Dark Horse knocked it out of the park!
YES they did!!!
W.M Thank you for your info on the BN. addition of "Monstress book 1" . I was lucky enough to pick up a BN signed copy on ebay. Really looking forward to reading it. OH by the way tell Omar his a bad influence on me, I have spent 1k just this month on OMNIBUS books. oh well you can"t take it with you. LOL . love the channel.
That is awesome!
Hey Omar when you were talking about the poor binding on the Monstress Book One, which variant were you talking about..? The Image variant or the Barnes and Nobles one..? I was gonna order the Barnes and Nobles signed copy and I want make sure it's not a wrong choice.
It was the B&N one. Maddie has that one. The Image one has a little better binding.
@@NearMintCondition Oh man..!! I was really looking forward to buying the B&N Signed copy but now I have to pass on it. I can't stand the thought of a poor bound book.
Same brother. The one by Image is a little better, but could still use better binding.
I held off on getting the Immortal Hulk HC in the hopes that there'll be a omnibus release in the future but I'm still tempted to just get the HCs.
I'm sure there might be, but for now Immortal Hulk OHC it is for me.
Merry Christmas all! :) xxxx
Merry Christmas, brother!
Nice collection. How about the witches hour from marvel with the wonder woman,and also HELLRAISER the watchers!
Just got the Barnes and Noble exclusive copy of Monstress in the mail today and I can confirm, still pretty bad binding. Looks to be a issue with the gluing and the ribbon. It wants to make a triangle with the point in the middle even though I did my normal spine stretch, very mousetrappy at the edges
(Great video though, have come back to it several times)
Thank you so much for the kind words. Yeah the bind is rough on that Monstress.
I’m new to this channel and loving it. The lady should show a bit of the art inside, I had to go somewhere else to take a peek on the books she recommended. Maybe next time? :)
Will take note. This year.
Love these top 10's.!! How many volumes are there in the monstress book 1..?? I'm now on vol 3 but I have to get mine from comixology so I would love to get it in that format..!!
The first three.
@@NearMintCondition cheers..thanks for letting me know..its a nightmare trying to get these types of books in the U.K..!!
Could you also do a «most important to read from this decade»?
For Maddie, if you had to choose 1 Katie O'Neill to start off, which one would you choose? Thinking of getting one for my daughters.
You guys are nerdy and cute ❤️❤️❤️
Moonshadow is the greatest graphic novel ever made. I just have to say that.
Mohammed Hanif Right? How dare you cast aspersions at Moonshadow?! I fucking loved that story.
I was a fan of it, but not going to lie. It took some time to get through it because of the style it is written in. That art was gorgeous too.
My favourite reads were
Silver Surfer Black treasury edition
Authority omnibus
Spiderman life story
DCeased
Kill or be killed
Thanos donny Cates ohc
Great choices.
Wish the list was on the description as well. Some of the titles you mention in brief assuming everyone knows what you’re talking about but that might not be the case for some of us.
That's a great idea.
That These Savage Shores TPB had a LCS special edition with gold foil :-) #gotit
Ohh and now I'm looking.
Awesome video 👏👍
You are too kind.
Sadly my 2019 was spent getting more books than I care to admit. I'm slowly working on getting through my backlog but of the books that I did get the ones that I did read and enjoyed were Authority(had to jump into Planetary right after just because),Immortal Hulk Vol.1 HC, and Spider-Man: Life Story.
Nothing wrong with a backlog. I live on those.
Question about Vox Machina; did the TV show come before? If so is it an actual show or a reality-type show where people just talk about D&D?
I am new fan!
Have you ever read anything from British 2000AD?
Judge Dredd is their most famous character.
Welcome aboard and no, other than Zenith we haven't read much of 2000AD. Where would you start reading Judge Dredd.
ruclips.net/video/1yUwX1rR-zc/видео.html
I would start watching this.
Also watch that video he mentions at beginning: Ten things I need to know about 2000AD.
I have read 2000AD and especially Judge Dredd and ABC-warriors. Also I have RO-BUSTERS collections, which are like beginning stories for two of ABC-warrior robots.
I
They have 2000AD ABC ongoing video series. It’s really big universe and it does overlap sometimes.
Like overlap in time. Judge Dredd happens before ABC-warriors.
She really could play Cara Dune, from Star Wars: The Mandalorian.
YES!
If i buy the Secret Invasion Omnibus will it double dip with my cosmic saga..? That maybe a stupid question but I am new to the scene of comics. Also, will buying the Secret Invasion paper back suffice or the Omnibus worth the spent..?
Secret Invasion is really more like New Avengers volume 2. It won't double dip into any of the cosmic saga. And please ask away. No such thing as a stupid question.
Will there be a omnibus immortal hulk containing all 50 issues buddy?
I guess one of my faves of last year was the Kamandi omni.
Did that ocme out in 2019. I really thought it was 2018. But yes, that books is great.
@@NearMintCondition well I meant that I read last year. I cheated a little
I get what you mean. :)
What are some recommendations for kids? My 7 year old daughter loves graphic novels
Oh we did a video for that with the whole family. A few months ago.
What was the title of the video? I cant find it
Just discovering your channel but I feel like I have a lot of overlap with both your interests. Lots here I want to check out!
Thank you so much for the kind words and welcome aboard.
A lot of independent titles on your lists. Would you ever consider doing a "Best of DC Collected Editions" and/or "Best of Marvel Collected Editions?"
I really like this idea.
Great lists, but you should put the lists in the video description as well.
We are putting them on our SM. But great idea. Seriously.
I would have included the Monstress volume, but that glued binding really soured me, compared to the Gail Simone Red Sonja, seeing what Dynamite could give us at the same price point, Image really looses credibility from this. So in no particular order:
Kill or be Killed
Are You Listening?
Absolute Swamp Thing
Lucifer Omnibus
The Tea Dragon Festival
Lumberjanes Deluxe 5
Gail Simone's Red Sonja
Absolute Arkham Asylum
Harley Quinn Omnibus vol. 3
I Hate Fairyland vol. 2
Black Magic vol. 1
The Authority
LOVE this list and yeah The Monstress binding was heartbreaking.
Not in Omnibus yet but The Mighty Thor ohc 1,2,3 was a good series that I recently read but what it really comes down to is reading the entirety of DC Rebirth because it is all good although I think that the sappy Batman by Tom King. Nobody wants to be in love ever again because love is junk. I think that he makes the mistake in not letting it fade away, like it should, but maybe not completely gone. I thought that Scott was nuts like Morrison and sometimes Stephen King but Tom King is a crazed joker. He is the joker.
God might kill Tom King. I haven't finished reading it. It started good and than that love stuff took over which was okay but it goes too far, way too far. I don't think that God likes that.
Love this list.
just out of curiosity, who is the lady, whats her name
I bet she could beat him in arm wrestling.
Nope we did that. Leg wrestling... maybe.
dbz and fma are a few of the english anime dubs that dont sound like middle school children trying to voice act
I used to watch bootlegs of DBZ in 1992-1994 so Japanese always for me. I never liked Goku's English voice.
She is beautiful.
And She reads comics :D
*checks bank account*
You bastards...
HAHAHAHAHA :)
No house of x / powers of x hardcover?
This list was so hard, but the binding in the book was glued, otherwise it would have made it into the top 10.
the absolute swamp thing build was so bad. half my book came off the ribbon in the first read
I think it's odd that depending on where the book was printed it reflects on the binding of the book.
Near Mint Condition I didn't send it back to IST because I feel it's not their fault. DC needs to send me a new book, no wonder they bury their customer service support deep within layers and layers of bullshit on their website
@@josepholsen7450 they are a mess that is trying to stay with their head above water while they keep trying to make new books.
Animal Man by Lemire omnibus not so good to reach top 10?
It's great, but for me it didn't make my top 10.
Injustice is waaay overrated by some people
Or you know...people have a difference of opinion. I don't get the love of Bendis, but I wouldn't say his Daredevil is overrated.
@@NearMintCondition I would!
@@transistormedia HAHAHA Touche.
i didnt like Monstress and cant understand why other praise it sooo much. To me the world is strange with all females, the traveling around of the characters is chaotic, and the whole premise seems like such a beaten theme and in this book was nothing new about it. I read only 3 volumes but really cant even force myself into reading next.
I can see it not being for everyone. If you can't make it past issue 3 then stop reading it and find somethign you like.
