Comics collection A, originally uploaded by helloMuller.
Every couple of years I get in the mood to sort through all of my comics.
When I was a teenager I’d be doing it constantly and had every series I collected in its own dedicated box, bagged and boarded.
Then as I got older reading them became more important than bagging and I started dumping them in longboxes to keep them safe. Of course this meant that rather quickly complete chaos would ensue and I’d never find a complete run of something.
So now I’m doing it all over again - hoping to do it properly this time (at least for the next 4-5 years or so), and along the way rediscovering old favourites, that 1 issue I thought I dreamt up having, and lots of crap (U.S War Machine, Elektra?!) and too much X-Men comics.
I love it. Really.
What you’re seeing on the photo is roughly spanning the last 8-10 years of hoarding.

Seeing that photo is like bringing back so many memories of me constantly organizing my (massive) collection in various ways. Ultimately, they are now in plastic bins so that nothing happens to them.
Someday I will get a chance to re-organize.
I see an issue of Wolverine: The End. I loved that series. But nothing, NOTHING will beat the Punisher: The End. Such a great story.

Oh yeah - That is a great comic, and buried somewhere in my Punisher stack!

“Punisher: Welcome back Frank” ist my favourite.
Ennis had his times …
Its funny that you posted this now, because I was going through my comics the last days. At the moment im reading the 90s X-Men by Jim Lee.
Stupid but great times.
