    Default Book Collection: turtlex

    Thought I would take some time to document my collection. It's humble but loved.


    This is a boxed set of hardback comics, released in France. La Tour Sombre. The box for the set is in the center, back row. It's very cool and oversized. Special thanks to herbertwest for pointing these out.



    My Jae Lee autographed comic. My favorite Jae Lee cover, too. This was signed by Jae Lee at the DT Gathering 2008 in Las Vegas and was gifted to me by wizardsrainbow.



    My Lee Bermejo autographed comic. My favorite all time cover. This was gifted to me by oy-the-brave.



    A quick note here - the above signed comic books are now framed and hanging in my home. I cherish them both and cannot express properly the thanks and sincere appreciation I feel for having received them. wizardsrainbow and oy-the-brave truly have touched my heart with their selfless generosity.


    My 2009 Haven Fundraiser auction wins.



    My Book Market Variant copy of Gunslinger Born Issue # 1 - CGC Graded 9.8 - a prized variant issue and hard to find graded this high.



    UK Edition of Wizard and Glass



    UK Sphere Edition of The Waste Lands



    The Gunslinger - Third Printing. A gift from my girl.


    I will post more of my collection soon.

    I keep watching amazon.fr for the next set... so far, they just have a # 4 available, and nothing mentioned about a next possible box set ! I'm going to hold off in hopes they box up a three volume set to go with this one.

    you know what? i'll let you know when i get further informations.

    So far, I know that the volume 5 is planned for may (it may change though.. it was written within my review copy of the volume 4)

    So still have 2 more volumes to be published before the next set? Maybe in 6 months then? But I've found this set by accident : i didnt know it was published!

    Awesome! Thanks. I check the amazon site frequently, but who knows what I am missing with my limited knowledge of the language!

    Very nice Pam!

    If only you can get Ned Dameron to sign your copy of the Waste Lands, and track down Dave McKean to sign W&G you'll have a very impressive set!

    Thanks, Eric.
    Yeah, I'd love those signatures, for sure.
    Just thrilled to have this set at all, actually.

    Very nice, Pam. If you get the chance, you should try to get Ned Dameron to sign both your ARC and your first! That would be really neat!
