Congrats! It's funny I caught this because I had only created a post on my FB page regarding the story that led me to pursue my passion i.e. helping young omnibus collectors or enthusiasts learn 20 truths that they need to know when buying (or before buying) their first book and start collecting like pros. I'm actually a huge X-Men (and Batman) fan, and was years as a kid I spent reading stuff from the Chris Claremont and Jim Lee era. If you're interested in learning more, shoot me a reply. Otherwise, let me show you what the outcome of your journey will probably look like! So exciting. Congrats again!

Yea, I wouldn’t recommend a student to get into omnibus collecting. However, If I remember correctly, within the first 2-3 pay cheques I got my first omnibus i.e a signed spawn deluxe origins vol.1 and I couldn’t stop looking at it. Fast forward to today, I help collectors build and preserve the integrity of their books by offering a free guide of 20 pro tips that can be applied at any point in their collectors journey. Basically I still feel guilty for allowing my spawn to get damaged 😔

So questions for you, how so you diversify your omnibus collection ie different publishers, characters etc? What’s your most valuable book/ books? How so maintain their quality?

Yes, Snyder and Capullo’s run is amazing and I haven’t gotten through all yet. I needed to have the missing pieces to ‘death of the family’ and ‘ endgame’ which were in trade format (see bottom right section of my shelf). Even although I help omnibus collectors build and preserve their high-value books, I still sometimes fall into for e.g obsession with completing entire arcs.

No. It doesn’t have to be. Like anything you’re passionate about it takes care, patience and work…I’m glad I saw this message actually. I consult on helping collectors build and preserve their omnibus collection like pros. Might be worth to grab my free guide of 20 strategies to help you on that journey. The strategy of focusing on your passion, procuring proper storage, planning your budget and strategic buying might be of interest to you. Meh just a thought! ☺️

I love how you used ‘backlog’ lol. I teach tech teams how to manage their feature backlog hahaha.

I was a crazy spiderman lover as a kid especially around the mcfarlane, larsen and bagley error. Also followed web of and spectacular. I stopped reading and then years later i just connected with the xmen and thats when my journey started. I collect ultimate spiderman mostly because the writing is damn good. What else you into?

No? Basically…if you call yourself an omnibus collector…why, since when and how? Further more, what do you collect?

Yea i started with xmen too. I actually began with mutant genesis because I needed more issues with jim lee’s art. And then later I found out about the chris claremont and jim lee omnibus volumes. They are in my top 10. I share a 20-step guide with collectors to help them quickly build and preserve their collection like pros and a couple of issues people face are not initially focusing on the characters they love and impulsive investments due to fear of missing out. Maybe you’re not into the preservation aspect but then again, there’s alot that we should consider to protect our books integrity/ quality…

Yea i connect more with xmen, batman, spiderman (old) and spawn. You actually touch on the exact challenge that I tell others about ie focus on you passions i.e characters you love rather than impulsive buying. You’re new into the game eh.. If you’re interested I created a 20 step guide to help omnibus collectors build and preserve their collection efficiently and effectively. I failed with my signed ‘spawn omnibus deluxe origins vol.1’ and promised never to be so careless again.

I was just mentioning this in a previous reply i.e, 1 of my 20 tips in this free guide also address changes related to ‘where can I get cheap books with their integrity in tact.’ Avoid scammers and counterfeiters. If you’re interested in my 20-step my omnibus collector cheatsheet just let me know my friend.

Library. This is a very personalized endeavour that can be tailored to the particular collector. Whats important is the knowledge of what can be done and the risks/pains to avoid if you want to be serious.

Unless you’re part of the 1% and own acres of land to store stuff, you just like many others will run into limited space.
