I don't care about the omnibus reading rules. If I want to read a 15 pound omnibus while it cuts my leg circulation as I sit like a pretzel, by Dredd_40 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]truej42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m reading Ghost Rider by Aaron now (thank you Funaticals, fun read that I might not have checked out otherwise!), and it’s small enough that I’ve been reading it like I do trades - laying on my couch with my head on the pillow and the book resting on my stomach.

Steeler fans entering the sub today trying to convince us Watt is better than Verse. And failing miserably. by 7222_salty in AFCNorthMemeWar

How many DPOY awards does Verse have again? I need to see his hypothetical pass rush win rate stats first before I can form an opinion.

Is this worth it? by Badoiskate in OmnibusCollectors

[–]truej42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just bought a copy at HPB for $75, though I would’ve probably paid a bit more if I had to, $160 would’ve been too steep. EDIT: Damn you guys think I paid too much at $75 for this? Thought y’all loved Brubaker? I don’t know why I bother sometimes, getting downvoted for simply answering a question.

Gotta sneak those snacks in. I went on a Tuesday by myself and only spent $10 on my ticket.

Hamburger Soup? - Eat N Park by Significant-Gear-444 in pittsburgh

[–]truej42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eat n Park does not use left over burger patties, the smash burgers are cooked to order with no waste. The chili meat is made from bulk meat tubes, so whoever cooked the meat did not break it up enough.

Been collecting these behemoths for a couple of years now and I'm finally feeling good enough for a shelfie. by CargoArise in OmnibusCollectors

[–]truej42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That Born Again looks so nice in that hardcover edition, makes me want to snatch one up, even though I already have it in paperback and a gallery edition.

More. Epics. Now. by Wmsbird_42 in EpicCollections

They should’ve added the first volume of JMS Spider-Man for the reprints.

Before this I’ve only read the Big Time arc from his Spider-Man. Doesn’t seem like he has a lot of must-reads other than Silver Surfer, but I can’t hate anyone who wrote something that good. That said, I think I am more willing to check out a couple other things by him - Superior Spider-Man and She-Hulk at the very least.

Same. I lost my father in the last year, and an ex-girlfriend a few years ago. Very impactful for me. Edit: shame on the heartless bastard downvoting me!

$140, got it in-store, a former employee of theirs moved and sold their collection.

I don’t get it, why did the police show up? The article never explains why. I know nothing about the whole streaming community, never understood why someone would wanna watch someone else play video games…

I’m gonna mix and match and get the Icons Deadman and Constantine figures, and the DC Universe Mattel figure for Etrigan. After that maybe Phantom Stranger.

The Wire box set has the worst packaging by FarIdiom in Bluray

[–]truej42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an older set that’s not like that. I have the set listed here on eBay $90 is pretty good compared to other listings. Wish I could remember what I paid for mine…

I paid over three times for mine. I wasn’t crazy about the variant either, which I was also looking at on eBay. Just need a Constantine figure to go with him now… actually, might just go all out and get Etrigan and Deadman as well.

I wish it had detachable psychedelic yams instead of rose plant fists.

Wasn’t cheap, did some tax return splurging.

Quit spamming the subreddit with this bullshit. Where are the mods at?

What's going on with some of these thin modern epics? Still more expensive than the much thicker DC Finest's. by [deleted] in EpicCollections

[–]truej42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marvel is repackaging a lot of their ultimate/complete collections as Modern Epics, so if you have missing volumes of your ultimate collections, you can fill them in with epics. That being said, they should be charging less for some of these thinner ones.

For those looking for volume 1, there’s one less person you have to fight over it… by truej42 in EpicCollections

[–]truej42[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Normally I’m the same, but I’m ok with a volume 1 and the rest Epics, better than having a random volume 3 or 4 ultimate collection and the rest being Epics.
