Same here, his older videos felt much more catered to ASMR and relaxation compared to his newer videos. This particular video is always the first one in my recommended because I watch it every night lol

For some reason the way the sunlight is shining on you and reflecting off the comic book packaging adds to the relaxation; I think because it reminds me of lazy afternoons in childhood spent sprawled on the floor under my attic skylight, squinting, flipping through the pages of comics and books. Still mid-watch but great video as usual :)

Any Shooter comic is always worth a read in my world so thanks for that. Pope John Paul is definitely going to be along shot but I thought it was worth putting it out there as well... I mean, why not. As for the recent buys, for sure they are an option since I haven't packed them away yet. I do tend to read a certain percentage of the comic hauls I get and I haven't done that yet. Would definitely be fun to read and put up videos of some of them. We see what the next few weeks of suggestions brings, my guess so far is that we'll have at least one crime comic in there and probably a western as well... fingers crossed. By the way, thank you for the feedback, good to know there is love out there for some of the buys I've been making :)

I could easily pick 50 or more books from this video! Ok, and here are my some of my favorites for your kind consideration :-) 1. DOOM PATROL #26 2. EC's Psychoanalysis 3. Flash Vol. 1 #281 (Prof. Zoom) 4. Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders (Rooseveltis an incredibly fascinating personality but of course he was a person of his time and some or even most of his political views may not be sympathetic to 21st century sensibilities...) 5. The Creeper #1 (because of Steve Ditko) 6. Supergirl 1 7. Amazing Spider-Man...maybe #40? 8. Squadron Supreme #1 (Mark Gruenwald's series seems to be very underrated and I like it very much -- although it's in many respects much more conventional than the visionary Watchmen) 9. Joe Sacco...maybe another issue of Palestine? 10. Plop (those covers are indeed fascinating!) /// To complicate matters even more, I'd like to already make recommendations for reading set #5. I'll be brief, just bear with me :-) A) "Concrete" by Paul Chadwick is a most unusual and wonderful series B) "Age of Bronze" by Eric Shanower retells the Trojan War (unfortunately, AoB -- which is nominally still ongoing -- has been on hiatus for a couple of years) I think both A & B would be worthwhile collecting in single-issue format... C) Green Lantern/Green Arrow by Denny O'Neil & Neal Adams would be appreciated, too. Maybe #76 with the famous "Answer me that, Mr. Green Lantern" panel?

I hadn't heard of Age of Bronze - I'm not familiar with Eric Shanower's work, looks like I should be :) ... as for Green Lantern/Arrow #76, unfortunately I don't have that in my collections and i'll probably have to save for a few months before I can buy a low grade, I better start saving now :) By the way, I wanted to thank you for the link you provided a few weeks ago with the Jim Shooter interview. I just finished part 1 and WOW! What an awesome interview. Thank you for that. I think it should be mandatory reading for anyone interested in the history of comics. Still blows my mind that Shooter is not recognized as one of the top 5 greatest comic book creators of all time. Too bad he got caught up in all the politics... what a story he has, I would love to watch a movie of his life.

+chycho Glad to be of service! "Age of Bronze" is a diligently researched and drawn comic. Hal Foster must have been one stylistic reference point for Eric Shanower. I re-read Green Lantern/Green Arrow #76 yesterday. Neal Adams' art must have breen breathtaking for readers in 70s. It's my impression that the importance of the Adams & O'Neil run has been somewhat diminished in some critics' opinion because it is considered naive -- which may be true; the rotund, cigar-chomping grotesquely unscrupulous real-estate mogul of #76 isn't a terribly subtle portrayal. And sometimes Denny O'Neil's prose made me smile, for example when he writes lines like "the enraged hero's rock-hard fist is about to descend into Jubal Slade's [this is the capitalist villain] pastry-soft face". But there are also very well-written, even moving passages and my sympathies are firmly in favour of this ground-breaking series. -- Oh yes, Reading Set #4 is already looking VERY exciting, chycho :-)

I really love those Charlton reads. Sometimes we all need a happy ending sci-fi story, wish there were more of them at the present actually. The book is now buried in one of my boxes somewhere but I'll keep an eye out for it on my next look through. Wouldn't mind reading it myself. As for the reading session, we're probably looking at mid-October. Fingers crossed :)

Great find. I've read the Killing Joke a couple of times, at least, and never connected all the hand symbolism, not to mention the rain drops. So obvious of Moore after seeing this but man, so subtle as well. Sometimes we just have to read an Alan Moore comic for a few years and multiple times to understand the story. Thanks for this, now I might have to read it again :)

+akou12 One positive side of not having your books organized is that sometimes you end up going through a few boxes before you find what you were looking for. That repetition sort of helps. Also keep in mind that I am wrong about certain issues and characters at times, just the nature of memory I guess.

Also any Batman or spiderman

Like that your into comics... so am I would you say your more marvel guy or DC ? I like both I'd say I gravitate to marvel more cause DC for me it's Batman and Robin but for Marvel it's Spiderman and Wolverine plus all of the X men and Iron Man and punisher. DEATH STROKE is cool too. I also like Hellboy but he isn't marvel or DC he is dark horse comics

For sure I've read a lot of Marvel and DC, love many of their characters, but I'm actually more of a Valiant guy, and I also read a lot of the other main publishers like Image, Dark Horse, Aftershock, Vault Comics, and the like. There is some amazing comics being put out outside of the DC and Marvel universes.
