Let's change the title here. THIS IS NOT A COMIC BOOK LIBRARY! This is a Graphic Novel library worth NOTHING. Comic books have resale value. Graphic Novels, not so much.. So you have a heavy paper weight library here.
Clearly someone with ZERO knowledge of the Omnibus, OHC, collected edition market. This library is worth plenty. Dont hate because its not your preferred way of collecting. I would take an omni over single issues any day.
I love watching other people's home library !! Gives me inspiration of making my own. Once I move out I'll have one mixed with comics, graphic novels and manga's along with some figurines.
Your collection of both comics and manga never ceases to amaze me. So many stories and so much history. I could spend the rest of my life in a room like yours. Thanks for this awesome update!
I honestly want to see another comics collection video from omnibus collector sometime soon if hes got new TPBs or ominbuses. mainly cause ive been trying t binge read blindly into into Marvel & DC comics for the first time & would like suggestions on what X-Men arcs are good and especially the names of any big comic/crossover events like infinity war. it also fun just seeing any new graphic novel recommendations that may be up my alley ^w^
Cool library! I personally DISLIKE omnibus editions because they’re so heavy and huge, it easily throws me into a READING SLUMP. I prefer trade paperbacks. Omnibus is just great for aesthetics.
Would love to get an updated tour of your comics collection, ive seen youre a lot more manga focused now but if you still buy marvel/dc/indy comic stuff id love to see what your collection is looking like now :)
@@Vigilanteaz Keep in mind he's been collecting these gradually for several years. No need to drop money on everything at once lol. This is from years and years of collecting.
I'm somewhat envious of those 4 custom X-Factor omni. Great connecting spine cover art, uniform look -- it's impressive really that a few enthusiasts have done so much of a better job than Marvel!
I need you to visit my house, every shelf is either stacked two rows deep or has books stacked horizontally on top or in front. Then there are the “piles” :-/ I love your open shelves in the middle of the room. I’m currently designing my next library and I was thinking a map table in the middle 🤔🤔🤔
Genuine question, do you have any kind of home insurance specifically on all of that? Just asking as I have a collection similar and I am trying to figure out what to do about insurance. As collections like this in total are worth a hell of a-lot of money if anything were to happen to them.
I have a similar sized collection and had a roof leak where I lost several thousand worth of Omnis many autographed. Was NOT pretty but have almost replaced most. Get your insurance for sure unless you have lots of extra money.
What shelves are those? I’m getting to the point of no longer being able to hide my books from the wide and need shelves to display them. But some that won’t bend with the weight
They are Billy shelves from Ikea, I use the same one. They come in 40 cm and 80 cm wide, personally I prefer the 40 cm ones, as those won't bend no matter what you pile on them.
You should really consider starting a Discord server. It would be really cool to have a place where we can talk about past/current/upcoming series as a community (apart from reddit), share our own collections, etc.
awesome collection! do you have any tips for starting a comic collection? I have a manga collection but I know the comic universe is HUGE especially with marvel.
He recently did a video on that topic that is worth checking out! Edit: I think it's technically a manga video, but I have applied it to my comic book collection
My tips would be the following: 1- be happy, buy what you like and intrests you. You don't have to have everything just have what you like. 2- Don't buy too many in the same time that'll cause distraction and make you scroll through what you already read because you are excited to read the next one. 3- Always think before you buy if you will actually enjoy it instead of buying it for other minor reasons ( it looks good on the shelf - it has a good cover art ... etc). 4- Put a monthly budget. That will help you keep things in check. 5- Do not scroll through Amazon or IST looking for comics you might buy next when you already have many to read. This is a huge distraction and it might mean you have an addiction! 6- Enjoy what you are reading and appreciate the art. Take your time with each page. 7- Do not buy comics because they contain inappropriate scenes. Such ones usually have terrible story and rely on such scenes to attract the audiance. If you do buy then that wasn't a choice made by your brain! That is what I have in mind atm. Good luck with your collection and keep us updated.
So cool, you have such a great passion for both manga and comics. It's great to see your interests in full like this. How big is your house btw? How many rooms?
Hey cool Library I love the black bookshelves. I have a question can you please do a video overview of X-Men Classic omnibus? Because I really wanna get in to X-men but I don’t know the differences between the original X-men run by Stan Lee & the X-men classic omnibus..
The X-Men Classic Omnibus is back up stories that were retconed in to later printings of Stan Lee's X-Men to better tie in with issues 93 onward which would be the start of uncanny Omnibus volume 1 which is a great jumping on point.
@@jamesatkins5692That's up to you, I bought it and I'm going to read it after the 2 Stan Lee Omnis are reprinted early next year, before I do a reread of uncanny X-Men.
@@jamestate5865 I think I will get it & the 2 Stan lee omnibus are getting reprints early next year? That’s awesome definitely going to pick them up. Thank you for helping me out with this
im starting my own book collection so far i have R.L Stine, Stephen King, JRR Tolkien, Frank Herbert, Dan brown that a start but i also have 2 graphic novels for death stroke vol 1: God of War & vol 2 Vol. 2: God Killer with Pokemon Pokedex.... im just looking what they did if i saw there work in a movie, show & or game the books where made from also i have 3 bibles as will 1 is travel size 2 are back up also in case my sister law & her kid want to read the bible they can i told them they can ask
The only omnibus I have is the frank miller daredevil run, but hoping to get Paul Dini’s Batman if it comes back in stock. And that’s how my collection is going 😂. Recommend any omnibus that’s so consistently good?
Savage Sword of Conan: the Original Marvel Years Omnibus Vol. 1 and 2 has beautiful art by big John Buscema inked by Alfredo Alcala. You should give it a go
I have a collection of over 30000 comics. One day it occurred to me...... I have so many comics that I will never have the time left in my life to ever read them all, again. I think when a collection becomes so large it is more of a detriment, books taking up space everywhere, and a reminder of your own mortality. I’m going to kull it down to my favorites, to about 2,000. I actually think a small collection makes me happier. Sometimes, collecting can be a negative. There are better things ya know than collecting and reading comics in life.
I think I’ve been subscribed to you for a few months now and I was just wondering who is your favorite superhero and what is your favorite comic of all time??! 👀 kinda getting into comics I’m a big fan of Spider-Man, doctor strange, and watchmen fan
Bruh if you aint careful you're gonna end up with a separate library house and four hours tour vids. I mean, I'm down. Just trying to project my dreams on you is all.
Paper doesn’t burn like that. There’s a lack of oxygen between the pages of the books when they are closed, so the house itself would burn while the weight of the books would cause the frame of collapse, caving in the top floor. It would take hours for the books themselves to burn to any serious degree. To actually burn a book you need to splay the pages open. Crinkling them makes it work faster. The more open space and oxygen flow between the pages the quicker the process becomes, but even still without the addition of gas or lighter fluid it’s a slow burn. With how slowly that process would take “one simple match” would do nothing except be extinguished after having singed the exterior of a few books on one shelf. The carpet would be more likely to be damaged over anything else, but even that is easy to stamp out before it spreads.
Collections like this arent admirable, but actually alittle sad. They show a person's true nature inside and how big of a void they have within them in their heart that they feel the constant need and attempt to fill that void with physical objects in order to bring them the happiness they seek. Yet this type of happiness is only temporal and must be constantly sustained with another item over and over again, continually. Especially items that they will never read from getting carried away with trying to keep that void filled. When a collection ends up consuming you like it has with this guy, it's actually alittle sad and shows how someone has just waisted away their life on materialism and buying physical objects that are here today and gone tomorrow instead of filling that void with eternal things of the heart that last forvever and cant be taken from us.... Like throwing the ball with your son out in the yard or creating a family and spending quality time with them, in creating memories that last forever. Those with massive inner collections of the heart are what's impressive, these kinds are just plain sad. But to each is their own.
Awesome video and epic collection! Next time you do a manga collection video I’d love it if you talked about some of the series more in depth :) i don’t mind a long video haha
Im newly subscribed but I wanna ask what job you are doing to be able to support this hobby. Keep up the good work, would like to see an updated manga one.
Awesome collection! Thanks for sharing. BTW, what kind of shelves do you have and where did you get them? I want to build out a similar library. Thanks!
Wish my collection was this big! Can I ask exactly how you organize these? One thing that struck me is that books of like sizes seem to be matched up. As mine is right now, it’s just alpha by title, and I have a lot of different sized books jutting out and it doesn’t look very pretty. Thanks for sharing!
This is old, so at this point I’d say like 90% of what’s in this video. I’m not sure what the criteria of looking new and unread would be though given all you can see are spines and I don’t read with dust jackets on so those stay pretty pristine.
That is an awesome collection, never realised there were so many comic book collections. Like your Marvel Legends, especially the Beast reading his book. So you don't collect individual comic books.
Let's change the title here. THIS IS NOT A COMIC BOOK LIBRARY! This is a Graphic Novel library worth NOTHING. Comic books have resale value. Graphic Novels, not so much.. So you have a heavy paper weight library here.
Why are you equating "selling" to a library collection? Why are you angry about interchangeable formats? Why am I even commenting here? lol
you do realize just because it doesn't have resale value, doesn't mean it isn't worth anything right? its still worth ALOT OF MONEY
Clearly someone with ZERO knowledge of the Omnibus, OHC, collected edition market. This library is worth plenty. Dont hate because its not your preferred way of collecting. I would take an omni over single issues any day.
Why are you so angry?

He had one four months ago and I'm guessing he will wait a bit longer to get more manga before updating
He just did one 4 months ago, I doubt it's changed all that much.
@@ZekeFreek in 4 months you be surprised how much people can buy and how the shelves change because of new volumes.
@@lifeisarabesque but when he has 2100 or whatever, even a couple hundred new volumes isn’t too much comparatively.

This is incredible!! So nice and neat as well!! I would be proud to have something like this in the future!
Nice collection, yeah the bowed shelves from the weight of the books isn't so great, my shelves are double the thickness for that reason.
i just watched all of the previous ones! if you can fit it you should invest in a mini step ladder for the books on the higher shelf!
Can I spend a week in your house and read all your comics and manga?
(Not serious)
Your library is such goals!!! Do you have all printed xmen books? Or mostly just the ones you enjoyed most?
halfway through and this is great! any thoughts on the issues of having thick omninus vertically which will cause wear on the spine?
