[@Xbale]

great video! I rewatched this through the last year... what about giving us a lil' update?

[@scott9firefly]

Awesome collection, I'm pretty jealous, not only about the books but also the colour of your shelves... kinda wish I didn't buy black ones now, yours look better... but I cant justify a trip to IKEA... can I?

[@BACOMICS]

WOW I am very jealous! Great collection mate

[@RIPcomics]

haha cheers bud, hope you enjoyed!

[@PonAdidas]

Awesome collection.

[@RIPcomics]

thanks for watching ...not a patch on your's though mate but there is a few different ones in there.

[@ThiloDUS]

If I would ever start a career as a burglar, I would definitely start at your place!

[@RIPcomics]

well i suppose that would give me some room for more books :D

[@MakeAmericaGreatAgain4547]

That's one hell of a collection it's huge.

[@RIPcomics]

thanks, yeah kinda running out of space :D

[@amoretpax199]

Mr Bewls You could always put them at my house. ;)

[@superboy08]

Amazing Collection, bro! I envy you. gosh! BTW, you seem like a nice guy but currently drunk on this video. haha!

[@RIPcomics]

+Manof :D hahaha maaaaybe? the problem was i had to think, talk and video all together, i'm really only capable at doing one of those things at a time :D

[@ShadowKnight1886-1994]

Great collection

[@RIPcomics]

ShadowKnight1886 thanks!

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

Very nice indeed, it was good that you pm´d me so that I could get back to this video. You have a great collection man and don´t let a thumb down tell you otherwise. What are your opinion on Preacher and Elephantmen, do you think I would like them? xP

[@TheHobbitMaster]

you should go through them in much more detail rather than just pointing, i'd love to see that! Great vid btw! Like pull them out :)

[@RIPcomics]

J.A. S thanks for watching! yeah tried to keep it brief really because , well there's quite a few books there and no-one wants to listen to me babble on for a couple of hours LOL i thought about doing a separate vid for each shelf that went into more detail, might do one day if i ever get round to making videos regularly

[@AdisNukicCaptainBosnia93]

nice collection man im jealous

[@RIPcomics]

thanks man!

[@mikeedwards7355]

hey i was wondering if you had any advice on how to take care of graphic novels..for some reason its hard to find info on it and a couple of mine have the pages pushing out past the cover and i don't understand why.

[@RIPcomics]

+mike edwards hello, sorry for the late reply, not too sure what you mean about the 'pages pushin out past the cover' like coming unglued? the Comic Book Resources forum has some good threads on book repair hope this helps!

[@littleripper312]

ohhhhhh can I be your roommate? I own 6 graphic novels as of today but I have been reading for a while on my computer and now tablet as well. I'm in college so it's difficult to afford the real copies. I might start buying the actual books now though because it's so much nicer.

[@HAMGoesSam]

what sort of price is american vampire volume 3 hardcover?

[@RIPcomics]

well, the cheapest it's going for on ebay (buy it now) and amazon is about 35 - £40 for a used copy, ridiculous prices for a new one. i'm just hoping it gets reprinted cos i won't pay silly money northlanders vol 4 is the same, about £40 for the trade paperback :( bloody crazy inflated prices due to scalpers seeing it's a sort after book

[@HAMGoesSam]

yer scalpers are assholes im trying to get into graphic novels/omnibuses etc crazy prices everywhere it really does piss me off love your collection though i hope i can have something close to it in the future!

[@RIPcomics]

i mean i'm not against anyone making a couple quid but think some will just be sitting on a pile of them hoping to get outrageous rip-off prices for all of them, the good thing about books is there's always a chance they could always get reprinted at some point and bring back sane prices. thanks man, you'll get there in time, just remember to always shop about, wait for a decent price, there's so many brilliant comic books out there to read you don't have to throw money away on overpriced stuff unless you really want to. want kind of stuff are you interested in?

[@HAMGoesSam]

i want to start reading the things like dredd,punisher and start reading american vampire and abit of cosmic that stuff is highly commended i have some of the punisher max trades im enjoying those atm really looking to get into cosmic the artwork looks insane! wheres a jood place to start on judge dredd?

[@RIPcomics]

yeah all good stuff, i need to try some of the cosmic stuff too! Love punisher max man, defo one of my faves. dredd, i honestly would say you can jump in almost anywhere but he's been going nearly 40 year so i'd probably recommend to try the newer stuff out..sayin that tho if you can hold of the 'America' trade that's brilliant story & wonderful art. i just read the first vol of the IDW stuff recently and enjoyed that too

[@davidallan2244]

Are you from the northeast of the UK, particularly Sunderland by any chance? great collection pal, keep it up.

[@RIPcomics]

cheers for watching bud and aye yeah, good ear for an accent! not Sunderland it's self but close enough

[@davidallan2244]

I'm from just outside Newcastle, so I picked up on the accent! Have you added any more to your batman collection since you posted this video?

[@RIPcomics]

that explains it! more ower Durham way than mackem but six and two threes i guess. Not much Batman to shout about, just bits and bobs (mind you its a while since a filmed this so forgetting what's there and what isn't, tell the truth) Do you collect bud? batman and DC?

[@davidallan2244]

A bit closer to Newcastle, and just starting to really compared to your collection, just a few of the new 52 run, some of the 80s graphic novels like the man who laughs, the long halloween and the killing joke, and arkham asylum. Wish I had as many as you to read.

[@trashpanda_actual]

How long did it take you to collect all of these? I'm seventeen...started getting graphics at around fifteen I have a solid hundred and fifty now after 2 years...

[@RIPcomics]

Slade Wilson hello! i think it's been about 5 years, they just start mounting up :D sounds like you're off to a good start, keep on trucking dude!

[@harrij9831]

Where are you at now, seven years later?

[@trashpanda_actual]

@Harri J wow lmao, 25 yo now and sold a bunch of trades to focus on quality over quantity. I have all three green lantern omnibus by Geoff John's, blackest night omnibus, Flashpoint, Grant Morrison batman, I have the entire new 52 and on batman in hardcover including the collected events for him, same with justice league, all of the earth one hardcovers, I'm getting all the New 52 Era omnibus that come out these days, and really just focusing on Manga, I have up to all the current issues on Ju Jutsu Kaisen, My Hero Academia, Vinland Saga, spy family, chainsaw man. And I'm still pulling in to get current on demon slayer, fire force, hunter x hunter, goblin slayer, Berserk deluxe editions. Other than that I'm primarily focused on setting aside money for big omnibus hauls.

[@Aztecface]

That is indeed a very impressive collection. For how long have you been collecting?

[@RIPcomics]

thanks man, getting the internet was the great enabler for me, so really only about 5 years. Before that i had maybe 20 graphic novels left over from my youth

[@Aztecface]

There was a flooding about 10 years back that destroyed almost my entire collection. I hardly even remember what I had. I do remember having quite a lot though. I've only recently(last 6 months) started to collect again.

[@RIPcomics]

Aztecface aww fuck man, nightmare. yeah i foolishly sold all mine for pennys 20-odd year ago, pre-ebay days, hey-ho though onwards and upwards. Good to hear you're back on board what stuff you reading now-a-days?

[@Aztecface]

Indeed. Collecting these days is a pleasure. So much easier. Unfortunately not much easier on the wallet. :)

[@stevekenton6393]

have you read them all ? lol

[@RIPcomics]

probably about 95% of these ones on the shelves, some just keep getting put back for a rainy day lol

[@BluUnboxings]

Wow.

[@kennethturner8290]

You, have read a lot of comics...

[@joyfulcolouring7372]

Great collection

[@RIPcomics]

thanks!
