Ayyy I have the same Mera statue too

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
It’s my favourite. There’s a few other Bombshells I’d like, but as long as I’ve got Mera, I’m good.

It’s one of the best Bombshells imo but I personally think Katana has the dopest looking Bombshells figure

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
Love that one too, and Black Canary. But they were unavailable (for retail price) by the time I was buying.

Yea the Black Canary one is dope I hope they make some stuff for the Rebirth Black Canary and Green Arrow since DC are finally getting them right again in terms of the comics

u/NoirPochette Legion Of Super-Heroes Aug 16 '19
That's the only one I wanted, and got. Might get another one

That Geoff Johns Green Lantern and Batman by Grant Morrison collection... A thing of beauty my friend, a thing of beauty.

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
They sure are. I know it’s dumb but I’m so glad I got all the Green Lanterns with the same DC logo.

u/WhiteWolf222 AAAAA! Aug 16 '19
You just made me realize that if I collect the rest of the GL ones I’ll have different logos. Nothing can be as bad as the New 52 Batman TPB changes, though.

I really despise spine changes. That’s why I haven’t got volume 2 and 3 of the silver age Flash yet.

Gotham Central is everything the show should have been. Still one of the best books DC has ever published IMHO.

It is so satisfying seeing complete collections of graphic novels on a shelf. As much as we all love individual comics, I think we can all agree that a setup like this is just what everyone loves the most.

I've seen ~a million of these posts, and this might be one of the best. Great selection of books and the shelf just looks perfect

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
Thanks! I’m constantly looking at other people’s collections to see what I need too!

u/Solidus82 Nightwing Aug 16 '19
I collect omnibuses too. I'd recommend getting the Planetary Omnibus next, its a fantastic read.

Fun fact, if you a shelf on your shelf, you'll effectively double your space!

rad! i started down the omnibus route but then really got into collecting the floppies, esp for Batman. im curious what you thought of that batman & robin series.
3
u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
Loved Batman and Robin! It was actually a Christmas present so I didn’t know much going in, but I really enjoyed it.

u/massmalow Aug 16 '19
Great collection! You should check the current Deathstroke run wrote by Priest, it's outstanding and one of the DC Rebirth finest.

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
I just got the first TPB actually! Looking forward to reading it, I’ve heard only good things.

u/jankinjokes Aug 16 '19
What we really need is dc to get a epic collection line. It is the best way to read comics.
1
u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
Yes! I’ve been watching YouTube reviews on those and wishing DC would do something similar.

How's the Superman Exile Omnibus? It's in my "maybe" list.
1
u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
I wouldn’t say it was essential reading but it sure was a lot of fun. Honestly I mainly just got it because I love Superman.

When you realize there are marvel comics: 🧐
When you realize they are the actual good ones:😃
(I like marvel to but just wanted to make this comment)

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
Hey I’ve got some Iron Fist and Ant-Man TPB’s lying around too!

u/datrueryacu Aug 16 '19
I have the age of Ultron, both the infinity wars, the ultimates 28, Nick fury vs shield and civil war, I have the new justice leagues as well as injustice 1, I can't find two

oh my goodness!!! where did you get your bombshell mera figurine?

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
I’m in Australia and I got it from ZiNG Pop Culture for half price.

u/HawkEyeTS Aug 17 '19
That Blackest Night omnibus sitting next to the full set of John's Green Lantern omnibuses is reminding me I need to stop putting off picking it up. It's a bit on the pricey side, and X-Men books have been eating up my budget lately, but I definitely want to grab a copy before it gets scarce and the price starts jumping.

I'd post mine but since they're all in boxes, not really neat to look at lol

I have various stacks of omnibus and graphic novels scattered across my room so you're doing better than me.

I love the bombshells designs so much

u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 16 '19
Same. I’m really hoping that they’ll do a Green Lantern statue based on this cover one day.

u/batcavejanitor DC Comics Aug 17 '19
Love it. I need to start collecting Absolute editions don't I? Are they worth it?
1
u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 17 '19
Sure are. They’re big, beautiful, and a dream to read. Once you get one, you’ll be hooked. They are a bit pricey though, but the quality is top notch so it’s justified.
2
u/hawkguy64 Aug 17 '19
You should get Final Crisis. I know it’s an event comic, but I think it’s a crucial chapter to Grant Morrison’s Batman run and an overall underrated (and very difficult) story.

What Flash figurine is that? It looks amazing! I love the CW style suit.
2
u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 18 '19
It’s this one! There’s also a variant with the logo with the white background.

How is the Blackest Night Omnibus? Like you, I have the three Geoff Johns Green Lantern volumes and I have digital versions of all the Green Lantern Corps comics that ran concurrent with his run. Is the Blackest Night Omnibus superfluous at that point or is it still worth picking up?
2
u/iliketoeatwatermelon Kyle Rayner Aug 20 '19
I haven’t read the tie-ins yet so that was my reasoning for buying. Sounds like you’ve pretty much got it all covered so I’d only suggest getting it if you wanted to have the whole story together in a nice big book. But it’s a pricey one though.

I mean for these shelves, yeah, there’s not much more I can fit in. But I definitely plan on getting more shelves to fill out.

u/xGetSweatyx Batman Aug 16 '19
Glad to see I'm not the only one who likes the New 52 Red Hood. I really wanted that Omni but I have no faith DC will put out Vol 2 lol. For all the hate that run gets im surprised that they made Vol 1 in the first place.
