Updated Graphic Novel Collection - March 2018

Hey what's up everyone!
So, I'm finally back with another updated graphic novel collection. I apologise for being gone for so long but as I explain in the video, I'm gonna try to start uploading frequently again (or as much as I can with exams fast approaching).
Thank you guys so much for your patience and support and I hope to see you guys in future videos!

[@LongBoiComics]

Hi All, Thank you for those of you that have supported and continued to support the videos. As an update, I'm hoping to do another collection video next week, hopefully on Monday, and then I can hopefully start to do some more haul videos each month. I've finished up college and have been settling into a new job but I miss making videos so look forward to getting back into it. Thanks for your patience guys!

[@paddytguitar]

VenomHush No problem mate. Hope the new job comes off well. By the way, do you collect single issues or just graphic novels?

[@LongBoiComics]

@@paddytguitar I've recently started picking up singles again (just a handful of series and miniseries) and will usually grab a handful or graphic novels each month too :)

[@paddytguitar]

[@LongBoiComics]

Daniel N - Thanks, the support means a lot!

[@sinestrogirl]

Great collection! GL is my favorite, followed by The Flash & Batman. The Geoff Johns omnibus are beautiful. I was gonna suggest the Blackest Night series but I think it's in one of those. It's my favorite GL arcs. Such a great story & the artwork is incredible. Hope to see more videos from you!

[@justanothercomic-fan656]

It great to see that you are back with an amazing collection. Thinking of starting my own channel once my collection is big enough

Great seeing how your collection has grown over the year. I resubrcribed to your channel now hopeing to see more videos in the future.

[@sebastianlarsson9142]

Sounds lovely! U inspired me when I got into comics a year ago and I loved watching your haul videos. You seem to prefer DC and thats great because I only buy DC and some Image. I now have 3 shelves with comics so u are part of the reason to my addiction haha :^)

[@LongBoiComics]

Man if you're looking to get more New 52 Aquaman, wait until December. They will be releasing an omnibus of Aquaman by Geoff Johns to coincide with the film being released. Also sometime this summer/early fall, a Deathstroke by Tony Daniel omnibus will be released if you're wanting more of that run. I can personally attest to it. Sooooooo good. I'll be picking up both omnis as soon as they come out. Great video. Cheers!

[@LongBoiComics]

Ryan Shea - Oh awesome, I'll probably pick both of those up then, thanks for the info!

ZoharXD - Love to be back!

[@joeymckinney7310]

Great collection! I really enjoyed the 12 Flash issues between Rebirth and Flashpoint and would definitely recommend them! Along with Dark Victory, one of my favorite Bat titles ever. What did you think of Priests Deathstroke? Wondering if I should read it, never picked up a solo Deathstroke title before but I've read Priests Black Panther and liked it a lot.

[@LongBoiComics]

Joey McKinney - If you enjoyed his Black Panther run then it's likely you'll enjoy his Deathstroke too. His writing style is unusual and can take some getting used to and he does seem to like to take the slow burner route with his stories and let them unfold over time, but I've enjoyed the first two volumes so far so I'd say give it a shot :)

[@gijoespanol]

Enjoyed watching all the stuff you have.

[@barefacedyeti3895]

This Collection is Amazing 😱, Great Video 👍

[@CC021186]

Great collection!

[@lcgatsu2962]

You need to get the second volume of Tony S Daniel's Deathstroke! It's one of my favourite comics of all time. Lemire and Sorrentino's Green Arrow is a masterpiece! Jealous of your Moon Knight and Carnage books as I love both characters. You really should look into Valiant Comics man! They're such a great publisher and I think you'd get right into the universe! If you want a bit of insight on the publisher I have a few videos on my channel that might give you a bit of info. Can I ask where you usually buy your graphic novels from btw?

[@LongBoiComics]

LC Comics - Thanks man, I'll check Valiant out. I usually buy my books from Wordery, which is great and cheap if you're in the UK. I'm not sure if it ships internationally if you don't live in the UK but it's worth checking!

[@lcgatsu2962]

I use Wordery too. Do you use anyone's affiliate link? Also is there any way of getting into contact with you? Like twitter or discord something? Would be awesome to have a chat with another English comic fan who also makes videos

[@mangageekdom]

Great collection! :)

[@remerdy1]

Hey, are the pre-52 aquaman books worth reading? I've been wanting to read more Aquaman since I really enjoy the new 52 & rebirth runs.

[@LongBoiComics]

Remerdy T - Hey, I'd say so, the New 52 and Rebirth runs are probably still better in my opinion and Arthur is a bit more brooding in the Pre-52 stuff which can take some getting used to but it's still interesting stuff if you're into the character. Sub Diego especially. I'm also hoping to grab the Aquaman by Peter David book myself at some point

[@jeremyg371]

Lotta books, thx for the video and have a great day.

[@danielmullins9953]

I'm getting into collecting graphic novels, could you recommend some of your favourite Daredevil, Batman, Spiderman, Black Panther, The Punisher and Hawkeye? I'm already considering buying those 6 Moon Knight volumes because his character interests me and I already have Civil War and Daredevil The Man Without Fear because I heard they were good for first time readers.

[@LongBoiComics]

Daniel Mullins FOR DAREDEVIL: - Daredevil by Frank Miller. - Daredevil by Brian Michael Bendis. - Daredevil by Ed Brubaker. - Shadowland graphic novel. - Daredevil by Mark Waid. (In this order would be better to give the definitive experience to the character but it's not a necessity, and there's plenty of videos online I'm sure that could help catch you up on anything you might have missed) FOR BATMAN: - Batman: Year One. - Batman: The Long Halloween followed by Batman: Dark Victory. - Batman by Scott Snyder (New 52) Volume 1-10. - Batman and Robin by Peter Tomasi (New 52) Volume 1-7. - Detective Comics by James Tynion IV (DC Rebirth) Volume 1-5. FOR SPIDER-MAN: - Amazing Spider-Man Big Time Ultimate Collection by Dan Slott Volume 1-4. - Ultimate Spider-Man by Brian Michael Bendis Volume 1-22. FOR BLACK PANTHER: (I haven't read much from this character myself so I don't know what else is good except for this) - Black Panther by Christopher Priest Ultimate Collections. FOR THE PUNISHER: - Punisher MAX by Garth Ennis Ultimate Collections. - Punisher MAX by Jason Aaron Omnibus. - Punisher: Welcome Back Frank. FOR HAWKEYE: (Similar situation to Black Panther) - Hawkeye by Matt Fraction. Obviously these are just my personal recommendations that I feel are good starting points and great books for new readers. There's plenty other stuff out there that's great for each of these characters but these are just what I feel are good reads. Hopefully this helps! :)

[@DarthAndylus]

Do you think they'll release a hardcover of aquaman rebirth because I've read it in singles but am waiting for a hardcover?!

[@LongBoiComics]

Andrew Stez - I believe there's a deluxe hardcover edition that collects volumes 1 & 2 of Aquaman Rebirth set for release some time in August later this year :)

[@sugarray6250]

Great collection. How are you finding the nightwing rebirth stuff?

[@LongBoiComics]

Personally, really great so far. I've enjoyed all 7 volumes. Worth checking out if you're a Nightwing fan!

[@lcgatsu2962]

You're still doing A levels and your collection is this big?! Duuuuuuuude where do you get all this money from?! I was crazy broke during A levels because I had like no time to work! Also nice collection man! Huge too!

[@LongBoiComics]

LC Comics - Hahaha, I had a part-time job for the past couple years which was basically the source of most of the books. Other than that, a bunch of them were gifts from family, friends, etc! And thanks!

[@mr.bananamanjr8829]

[@jonathanthomas4498]

Nice collection

[@TheComicBookReport]

What do you enjoy about Tynion’s Detective Comics rebirth run?

[@LongBoiComics]

There's a lot I love about that run. The art is consistently great throughout. I love the team dynamic in the sense that the characters all bounce off each other really well. The friendship between Orphan and Clayface is adorable and really made me care for both of those characters on a new level. The relationship and tension between Batman and Batwoman as team leaders works really well. I enjoy seeing Tim Drake a bit more front and center as he's been sort of in the background a lot more since Damian arrived in the comics. I like the juxtaposition of having Batwing and Azrael together on the same team as one is completely driven by science and logic whereas the other is driven by faith so that makes for an interesting dynamic. Each character sort of gets their own arc to really stand out and be in the spotlight so none of the characters really feel wasted or unimportant. And I enjoy seeing mostly new villains and ideas like The Colony, Ascalon, the League of Shadows and the Victim Syndicate among others. Those are a few reasons off the top of my head!

[@TheComicBookReport]

@@LongBoiComics wow this is Great feedback! I’ll definitely have to move this up in my to-read pile! Thanks

[@LongBoiComics]

@@TheComicBookReport No worries! Hopefully you enjoy it!

[@gijoespanol]

Have you read all your books?

[@blakeminecraft200]

Hi there where do you buy them all from

[@justanothercomic-fan656]

Are you going to get any of dc rebirth deluxe editions

[@LongBoiComics]

Just Another Comic-Fan - I'm considering grabbing some, but more for the aesthetic of having them. For example, I might get some of the deluxe editions for series like The Flash, Action Comics and Nightwing, even though I've been reading those series in paperback. Then again, I might also grab some for some other series if I feel like it down the line!

[@fractic4423]

What are some online comic stores you recommend? ( i live in norway )

[@LongBoiComics]

I use Wordery for most of my purchases :)

[@reb10]

Is there a difference between Joker death of the family and batman death of the family?

[@LongBoiComics]

REBstiltskin10 Dude - Batman: Death of the Family collects just the main storyline from beginning to end. Joker: Death of the Family collects all of the tie-in issues that lead into the main storyline/follow alongside it, as well as the epilogue issue. For the most part, the tie-ins feature other members of the Bat-Family encountering the Joker. In terms of the material collected in it, you'll get: Detective Comics #16-17, Catwoman #13-14, Suicide Squad #14-15, Batgirl #14-16, Red Hood and the Outlaws #15-16, Teen Titans #15-16, Nightwing #15-16, Batman and Robin #15-17, and Batman #17. I'd recommend getting Batman: Death of the Family first, and then going back and reading the tie-ins in Joker: Death of the Family to avoid spoiling events from the main storyline for yourself. Hope this helped :)

[@ski-_-rieboss493]

[@nicolasstoicescu1234]

If i want to start reading Green Lantern should i buy the Omnibuses ?

[@LongBoiComics]

Nenea Nico - If you're unfamiliar with the character, I'd recommend watching Comicstorian's video on Green Lantern: Emerald Twilight as well as the origins of the main human Lanterns; Hal, John, Guy and Kyle. Emerald Twilight will fill in the gaps regarding how Hal Jordan became the villain Parallax and Kyle Rayner became one of the last Green Lanterns. Besides that storyline, all you'd really need to know is that Hal eventually sacrificed his life to save Earth as Parallax and his spirit was possessed by The Spectre. Off the top of my head, that's the only important info I can think of regarding knowledge you'd need before checking out these omnibuses. The omnibuses themselves are a fantastic read, and although the Lantern mythos can be intimidating, once you're comfortable with it, it's great. The three Geoff Johns omnis are the best Green Lantern run out there in my opinion, so I'd say go for it, dude!

[@nicolasstoicescu1234]

Bit of dumb luck, I suppose. I read all the books on my shelf, as I typically don't read digital stuff (I prefer the physical copies). Luckily, the site I get the books from are usually pretty good at getting them to me in good condition and from there, I just try to be as careful with them as I can.

Eduardo Cortez - Definetely. I've been unable to grab anything new recently because money is a bit of bitch at the moment as I'm in the process of looking for a new job for when I finish my exams. However, I'm gonna continue streaming different things every now and then (I talk mostly about comics and film related topics in the two Gang Beasts streams I have done, for example), and I'm gonna aim to do other comic related videos when I can. It's just a tough time at the moment with exams just a few weeks away. After that though, there should be more frequent uploads, for sure!
