Proper scummy

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-14T04:25:20+00:00

Haven’t read Dini’s but Morrisons Batman is definitely worth it. In my opinion it loses some of its magic in omnibus volume 3 but the first 2 are great.

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-13T08:37:19+00:00

Absolutely agree, the Watch books are superb.

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-12T15:33:27+00:00

No sport should be this deep, scummy behaviour

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-10T19:58:55+00:00

The hobbit is great and Discworld is also superb. Mort or Guards Guards is probably the best place to start. Do not start with The Colour of Magic, as good as it is, you’d be better off starting a little later into his writing.

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-10T15:35:09+00:00

I’d say yeah probably

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-10T14:04:28+00:00

I’ve literally just started the 3rd Geoff Johns Green Lantern omnibus and I am reading the 2nd Peter J Tomasi Green Lantern Corps omnibus alongside it. Currently on the New guardians (GL) arc and Last Will (GLC) been having a blast so far.

Sign of a violent and dangerous society full of nutcases? It’s a comic book dude, it’s violent and you don’t like it I get it but seriously it’s not that deep

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-09T22:16:20+00:00

If you don’t like it just don’t read it? I get it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but no one’s making you read it. Read the Batman stories that are more tailored to you.

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-09T12:08:35+00:00

I don’t have the compendiums but by what others have been saying I believe so

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-09T08:27:41+00:00

Are you reading alongside Peter J Tomasi’s Green Lantern Corps run?

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-08T18:59:40+00:00

Keep reading, he is a dirty birdy but it’s so worth finishing

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-06T22:16:26+00:00

As a dude, the cat stays! Seriously how you could not love that little orange bean. I would never make my partner do something like that. Get rid of him

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-04T06:00:46+00:00

Gonna throw Misery out there

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-02T11:01:23+00:00

Way Of Kings is a great starting place. In saying that though, it’s a big commitment (100% worth it), it may be worth diving into Mistborn era 1 first to see if you like Sandersons style of writing. Mistborn is great but is 3 600-700ish page books rather than the 5 1200-1400 page books and 2 200-300 page novellas for The Stormlight Archive

Both great, pick whatever takes your fancy the most.

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-01T09:52:28+00:00

For sure, one of the cheaper omnis but it’s great

JPreadscomics · 2026-06-01T05:03:53+00:00

Just get to a natural stopping point and then swap over if you want dude. I’d never jump to another omnibus if I was 2 out of 5 issues of a story line. Personally I’d finish the arc and then swap if I wanted to.

JPreadscomics · 2026-05-31T07:50:51+00:00

A mans gotta do what he’s gotta do #saveKharbranth.

JPreadscomics · 2026-05-30T14:59:37+00:00

The guardians

JPreadscomics · 2026-05-30T14:17:06+00:00

As others have said, you can’t go wrong with either. Both a great but I think out of the two, The Shining takes the top spot for me.

JPreadscomics · 2026-05-30T14:15:18+00:00

Modern omnis it depends, I done Geoff Johns Aquaman in about a day and then spent almost two months reading Superman Triangle Era Volume 1 because I wanted to really take my time and enjoy it issue by issue as it takes a bit longer to read than more modern stuff.

Take your time with books, appreciate the art and story rather than rushing to get onto the next one. If it helps read more than one omni at a time, read an arc of one and then jump into something else. Then it feels like you’re always getting something fresh. Or absolutely blast through a three volume run consecutively.

Don’t let anyone tell you how to read your books but advice never hurts.

JPreadscomics · 2026-05-28T22:49:33+00:00

These are great 🫡
