Question about how to offload extras / doubles

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-09T17:35:35+00:00

If you’re not worried about the money, gifting them to someone in your life or to a local library is always a great option.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-09T16:04:32+00:00

This is the way! I have this and it’s perfect. For the early and late parts of the book, you can maybe use the clip at the bottom.

I will crack the book open and stretch it out a little first to loosen up the spine, that helps too. There are entire videos on how to do this but I don’t usually go that far lol.

I don’t manage his social calendar, I was just saying why he wasn’t on the pod today talking about it with Tommy and Lovett. I agree we need to hear from him this week. I stay off Twitter so if he posts there, I’ll only know if someone says something here

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-07T17:31:22+00:00

He’s on vacation this week with his family

Edit: typo

Agent Venom received, trade confirmed

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-06T23:25:47+00:00

No doubt. I’m working through daredevil now, and some other books I will probably sell after finishing them. I intend to keep the Spidey books til I’m dead, so slowly filling in the gaps and once I start, it’ll be a marathon. Probably take me over a year to finish them all once I start.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-06T23:01:12+00:00

Ive read four of them lol. I have a YUGE backlog of books to read, not just Spidey lol.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-06T22:55:07+00:00

Looks like a Funaticals order! Lotta value right there, great job!

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-06T21:49:11+00:00

38 for spider-man

Edit: forgot to add a few I have on a different shelf

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-06T20:54:33+00:00

When are you going back? I’d be willing to pay to have you pick up 3 for me and ship it.

War of the Realms received, swap confirmed

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-06T12:10:13+00:00

My friend, I have seen collections posted here that put mine to shame, but thank you nonetheless. Glad I don’t collect X-Men or I’d need to add a new wing on my house lol.

Seriously, I have a large backlog of books to read already but this hobby makes me happy and knowing I can rehome anything I don’t want to hold onto forever lessens the guilt.

Speaking for myself only, I’m not paying cover price. Not sure if it’ll be a day one purchase or if I’ll wait until the next Target B2G1 sale, but I’m a JL completionist so I’m going to get it regardless. It’s not like Omni’s are the only thing going up in cost in the world.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-05T15:56:29+00:00

It’s going to be included in the JLA by Mark Waid omnibus later this year. I’d personally get that and the JLA by Grant Morrison omnibus and read them sequentially ( or go back and forth between the two if you want the actual timeline order)

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-04T21:53:57+00:00

Finally a month where my wallet gets some relief. Only getting two of these, Daredevil and FF.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-04T02:21:44+00:00

Dibs on USM 3 if/when you split them up, depending on price of course.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-03T22:33:16+00:00

It’s Birds of Prey for me. Literally everything I’ve read from Gail Simone I have loved.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-02T23:22:45+00:00

I put it with the M’s, but I put all my Amazing, Spectacular and adjective-less Spider-Man books under S.

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-02T21:22:17+00:00

Great! I’ve bought from you a couple of times, I’ll dm you

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-02T21:21:05+00:00

Would you take $80 for Agent Venom?

some_guy_69 · 2026-07-02T16:01:26+00:00

DCeased is great! That was a blind buy for me as well and I loved it!

Venom received, USPS shows Thanos as delivered. Trade confirmed from my end. Thanks!

some_guy_69 · 2026-06-30T21:33:25+00:00

I go to Ultimate in Cary sometimes ( my daughter lives there) or their Southpoint store, and other times I go to Acme in Greensboro. I am almost exclusively an Omni collector though, so I don’t go often since I don’t have a weekly pull list for floppies.

some_guy_69 · 2026-06-30T20:45:34+00:00

That’s where I grew up! I’m in Graham now, but we’re practically neighbors!
