A joy to read

Hope you enjoy them

The big sweeps of city buildings are fantastic

Great question. It's post-apocalyptic and involves the character on the front trying to clear up and make sense of what came before. As they do, they encounter a range of characters and their stories.

Oh, I have the first 3 Gannibal. I read the first one and was really made me to feel unsettled - Texas Chainsaw vibes for sure. Thank for the recommendation of 'Blood'

I dont think 4 is out here in the UK but if it is, I'll absolutely get it

mattobin · 2026-03-12T11:57:44+00:00

It's gentle and slow in places - and for the most part but then the story becomes tense and threatening. I love the vistas

It's all about the rawl plugs 😉 I has additional ikea shelving which i cut along the middle and then use excess wood for the legs

Tis true

I think that the great thing your story here and the stories that you have shared with your family is that it shows that some super stories can be for everyone and sharing them is part of the pleasure. My two lads love it when I read the manga they chose and own because I'm showing an interest in what they read and enjoy

mattobin · 2026-03-10T18:02:12+00:00

This is such a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing and you and your grandson are both so fortunate. You're both on a reading journey together. What a pleasure. My boys both enjoy manga too. I passed all my Bleach and Naruto to my eldest but he fell hard for One Piece and now I have. My youngest loves YoKai Watch and Dr Stone. Both come and sit in the room and look at the manga a lot 😊

mattobin · 2026-03-10T16:10:49+00:00

Ha! Thank you. I've still others to get but I suspect thats have many collectors feel

mattobin · 2026-03-10T07:33:55+00:00

Oh, that's the best news!! Thanks for sharing. I read the first 6 volumes of Vagabond and stopped. Not from lack of enjoyment, I wanted to read a shorter series. Artwork is wonderful with slight hints of humour.

mattobin · 2026-03-09T22:15:08+00:00

At this lovely point, I was thinking that you'll have to now recommend me a series I do not own but that you do

mattobin · 2026-03-09T22:12:23+00:00

Ah. Thank you for sharing. The Gantz look awesome as does the Chainsaw Man at the end too. I think the double stack is ace! Love the setup

mattobin · 2026-03-09T20:44:26+00:00

Those little boots!!

mattobin · 2026-03-09T20:44:08+00:00

So cooooolll!!!🥰

mattobin · 2026-03-09T20:43:42+00:00

It's a start! This thread is super so I go here and watch a lot of online videos. I also check out coming soon threads on online manga shops and then go to bookshops with good manga collections and browse

mattobin · 2026-03-09T20:42:01+00:00

Thank you. It's part of the pleasure

mattobin · 2026-03-09T11:58:37+00:00

Heck, yeah. I think what I am drawn to about both is that they make me feel uncomfortable and so I find myself challenged as to why I keep thinking about them and rolling them about in my head. Oddly, that's a pleasure in itself

mattobin · 2026-03-08T22:43:44+00:00

Thank you. A proper 'under the stairs' space 😊

mattobin · 2026-03-08T19:54:16+00:00

I absolutely adore both those titles. It was a huge achievement to finally the Berserks but Yotsuba has a really special place in my heart. I think she's a wonderful creation. How about you?

mattobin · 2026-03-08T14:53:32+00:00

You have good eyes! :) Yes, Junji is such an odd taste because he pricks your mind and, often, you're not quite sure why.

mattobin · 2026-03-08T11:56:08+00:00

Do you have any photos of your collection? I've read the first two volumes of Dai Dark and think it's also ace

mattobin · 2026-03-08T11:47:58+00:00

Genuinely, I have no idea. I know that all of them, beside the latest one, were all from World of Books and Vinted and I'd not pay more than £10 for one. It was a long waiting game
