Omar da man and the beautiful Maddie....nice pics guys

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you, sir!

[@Couick27]

My favorite is Tomb of Dracula, I also like having Man-Thing, Werewolf By Night, and Dr. Strange omnibus...My most impressive horror collection is owning every issue of Ghost Rider in singles back to Marvel Spotlight 5 including the crossovers and events

[@NearMintCondition]

Alex Couick I would love to one day have all of Ghost Rider in collected editions.

[@Couick27]

Firstname Lastname Trail of tears and Road to Damnation stand out 🤔 Danny Ketch issue 25, the X-men crossover, rise of midnight sons, Midnight Massacre, road to vengeance, Siege of darkness, And before that I’d say the Marvel Spotlight run are really the only runs and arcs I can think of

[@Couick27]

Firstname Lastname I’ll make a video and go over everything Ghost Rider since I have everything, I just need to get some things to make good videos, my video channel is ComicBookJunkies

[@yoavhi94]

Beautiful Darkness is fantastic. Horrid tale of childhood innocence and what happens to it when it meets the real world.

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you so much. I'm a big fan of it.

[@davidgraham8299]

Glad to see Tomb of Dracula get some love in the comments, American Vampire (loved that, want more), Locke and Key took my a while to get into but wound up loving that as well. And Wytches by Scott Snyder.

[@NearMintCondition]

david graham getting so much love making me regret selling my omnis.

[@bryanwilson2165]

Locke & Key and Uzumaki are usually my go to suggestions for horror, but there are so many good ones. I’ll have to check out these titles y’all recommended

Whoa!! 😮 Ordered Beautiful Darkness, Harrow County, Locke and Key!! These were supper intriguing!! Now im thinking start a Go Fund me charity 🤣🤣 thank u..greatly appreciated n throughly enjoyed!

[@frankscomiccastle4928]

Tomb of Dracula, Warewolf by Night and Afterlife with Archie. Great video 👍👍❤️

[@frankscomiccastle4928]

It has Francavilla artwork, you should be sold on that alone 😁😁👍

[@NearMintCondition]

DONE!! :)

[@ShaneMatlock]

Some great picks from both of you. Totally agree about Locke and Key, Harrow County, Eerie/Creepy, and Hellboy. Those would all be on my list too. I'd add Swamp Thing (the Moore run, though the Wein/Wrightson run is great too), Nocturnals, Crossed, Fatale, From Hell, Providence, and Hellblazer.

[@NearMintCondition]

Smotlock fatale is a solid read. Agreed. Thank you for the kind words.

[@christopheverre4848]

Blame! by Tsutomu Nihei. It's more SF than horror but it's got a creepy atmosphere, I love it.

I've got the first three Master Editions. I want more! And the one shot.

I would've added Marvel Zombies. Didn't think it would be good but was pleasantly surprised. Good fun read.

[@NearMintCondition]

I enjoyed the 3rd and 4th volume.

[@mrpepperami01]

The only one I’d add would be tomb of Dracula, actually maybe from hell as well. Thinking about it does Moore’s swamp thing count? Too many to list😂

[@NearMintCondition]

Mr Pepperami I really need to re buy the ToD omnibuses.

[@jarod9135]

I am definitely a fan for life now! It is so awesome to have people that share my passion and give me amazing recommendations! Keep up the amazing work you guys!

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you so much and mad love back to you!

[@wladimirbassett-torres7712]

For me it doesn't get better than 'John Constantine Hellblazer'. Particularly the storylines Royal Blood; and Son of Man. Early Swamp Thing by Len Wein is also pretty good horror.

[@NearMintCondition]

Wladimir Bassett-Torres can’t wait for that Hellblazer omnibus.

[@rafalvarenga]

i feel like animal man and swamp thing saga on "the rot" thing (new 52) was very decent. all these dark horse and classic titles and mangas and im like, "yeah! dc!" but i didnt mean to be that guy... :)

[@NearMintCondition]

LOL, no apologies ever, for being that guy.

[@RasputinVasilliov]

I'd add COLDER and BALTIMORE to the list. THE CROW, too.

[@NearMintCondition]

Do they not have Amazon available over there? How much are importing costs?

[@theanonymousunknown1949]

If I were to recommend something, I would recommend Johnny the homicidal maniac. I won’t say anything other then, if you like your comedy black and gruesome, then you should probably check that out. It’s also made by the same guy who made the Nickelodeon show invader zim.

[@NearMintCondition]

That’s the one by the Invader Zim creator?

[@theanonymousunknown1949]

Yes, it is a seven issue comic that was made by jhonen vasquez (aka the genius mind behind invader zim) and it spawned two spinoff comics called I feel sick and squee! If you ever interested, then check out, it’s pretty cool. Although again if your not into gruesome, black comedy, then it might not be for you. Btw, loved the video!

[@timsroom4606]

Harrow county is so fun 👍👍👍 and nailbiter is amazing.

[@TheYoungDoctor]

My picks would be: Transformers City of Fear (Marvel UK #164-169) Dead Space, Dead Space Salvage and Dead Space Liberation and Marvel's adaptations of the Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake Vampire Hunter novel series

[@NearMintCondition]

Did they do adaptations of the Dead Space game? Were they also by Ellis>

[@TheYoungDoctor]

@@NearMintCondition The only game to get a adaption in the series was Dead Space Extraction and none were by Ellis. deadspace.fandom.com/wiki/Dead_Space_(Series)

there are these giant size editions of Locke and key at my local store but only volumes 2 and 3 of 6. 100 bucks cover price. can't seem to find them online anywhere or whether or not the whole run is in this format

[@NearMintCondition]

Joseph Olsen oh yeah those are huge and impossible to find all six.

[@josepholsen7450]

Near Mint Condition too expensive for the content imo. for the same price I can get an absolute with 2-3 times as many issues

[@NearMintCondition]

The Master versions are the ones I would get.

[@Mattkeyz1]

My favorite Horror reads are Gyo-Junji Ito Wytches- Scott Snyder/Jock Severed- Scott Snyder/Scott Tuft/ Attila Futaki Through The Woods- Emily Carroll Black Hole- Charles Burn Batman: The Cult- Jim Starlin/Bernie Wrightson

She looks like a Brazilian girl

[@NearMintCondition]

I'm sure she gets that alot.

[@Emma-R]

Omar is right of course, enjoyment of art ís personal. And the same goes for horror. Because everybody has their own things that scare them. So it can be that somebody doesn’t like a horror because of the art style, where he or she could maybe love it if the art style would have been more to his/her liking. And that’s a shame. But preferences can change. I read Robert Kirkman’s Outcast, and the first couple of chapters it looked very amateurishly written to me. I hated it. But I kept reading, and by the end of the first Deluxe Edition I had fallen in love with it. He has a way of writing that is nowhere else to be found. Some kind of realism at work there, I can’t put my finger on it. Same goes for Walking Dead. If you don’t like it, maybe you don’t have the right mindset for it. And maybe you could change that mindset so you cán love it. Like you can suspend your disbelief that a human being can fly, and consequently like superhero stories. I just want to point to the wonderful feeling you can get when you overcome your selfinflicted limitations, opening a door to a new world of understanding or love. Other suggestions are the manga Superdimensional Love Gun, for those who like bodily distortions, sex, and weirdness. Charles Burns’ Black Hole, for the same people. The manga Dragon Head for more psychological horror. And anything by Junko Mizuno, for those who like cute cuddly girls mixed with horror elements. I now have to go reread 3 horror comic suggestions Omar and Maddy made, that I didn’t like reading the first time.

[@NearMintCondition]

Mar Rastapopoulos thank you so much for watching and the suggestions. Yes yes!! Yes! On the Mizuno books. So creepy, yet so cute.
