Will these manbabies ever realize they're wasting their time and money on useless garbage? Or is the autism too powerful.

Who cares? Life's too short to care about what people you'll never meet do with their spare time.

All consoomers do is make me jealous that I cannot consoom to such an expansive degree. Fuck you and fuck this guy, I hope a cat knocks over the turtle statues or something so he can feel my pain of not having massive towering figures of my interests.

the worst a cat can do is piss on top of the shelves and ruin the books

Why would anyone try to be a speculator over media that died 30 years ago?

>Depreciating asset
Do you treat all of your hobbies as mini stock markets to invest in? Are you the kind of person who stalks the employees at Walmart so you can get first dibs on Pokemon cards as soon as they get put on the shelves?

Why would you be jealous of these losers? Go do something else.

I don't care if it's sealed and you want to resell them just seal them again is cheap and easy even necessary sometimes
>>
>>153518033
these are new. not resealed. you can tell the difference. 30 bucks plus shipping and tax. for over 1,000 pages in large format. all in a convenient single volume. you can't beat it.

Except for the digital coloring turning all the nuances comic book hand painted into digital slop that is done with clicks of the bucket tool
>>
>>153518341
you aren't getting the real experience either because of how the floppie's paper aged. you'd have to build a time machine.

>depreciating asset unlike floppies
I fucking wish. The 2nd hand market for an out of print comic is straight retarded, whether it's a trade paperback or omnibus.

I have read all the omnis I own (haven't finished one but I'm working on it) and have reread a bunch of them more than once.

I would prefer Epic Collections/DC Finest as a sweetspot for number of issues while also being paperback and easy to take with you to work or on a commute.

I think there are much more impressive books to show off (I'd probably go for coffee table art books or just actual literature) but as a tool for just reading comics omnis are great unless you want to take them somewhere.
