Omnibus Sale April 2017:

I did indeed but all the Omnibus' listed in Mr. Moore's Half Off-Omnibus Sale, so I will be updating my ownership and reviews for all of these. I have loved Strangers in Paradise with a whole heart unconditional, unwavering adoration since I was sixteen and my boss at the comic store, with a recent bought from a customer, first edition, red slash cover, Strangers in Paradise, Vol. 1, first edition, said, "Don't touch this."

As you can guess, I did touch it (amid an insanely slow night, where everyone else was playing a long winded Magic the Gathering game on the end of the store, and the book, and the pile of comics of the self-same title were under it) and there began my descent into one of the two greats loves of my life in the two decades I've been reading comics. My adorations for Katchoo, Francine, and everyone else in their world is unending.

Getting to own these volumes finally feels like a piece de resistance moment and getting to read it all over again in order in these books only continues to cement my endless love for these women and their long, winding, perfectly imperfect story of unwavering love.



(I totally bought that first edition off of him after a lot of hemming and hawing on his part, too.) ( )
