Favorite Manga , Absolute, Artist Edition, Omnibus, Illustrated Book and Blu-ray picked up in 2025!

Описание: Ok so in under7 minutes I run you thru my library 3 Room 1 Collection. And these are the favorite pickups of this library. You can imply my favorites by seeing the ones I emphasize with close up. But in brief they are:
Artist Edition - I picked up some great ones this year, both old and new. Of the ones you see in this video the most sought after you can probably just guess. but the one that really surprised me with its size and the beauty of the art and reproduction, JOSE GONZALEZ'S VAMPIRELLA Art Edition by DYNAMITE. Just one of the best of these type of art sized books.

I picked up the DC Finest titles you see. Just the ones that spoke to me. Vibrant colors, great reproduction/remastering, looks brilliant on the shelf, probably the best spine design.

DC Absolutes are always a hit. Picked up the long awaited reprints for Moore's PROMETHEA and LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN. Best feeling and smelling ABSOLUTES, all THE SWAMP THING ABSOLUTES.

Sticking with oversized for a bit, the very colorful book in the video that says INFERNO on the spine is from BEEHIVE BOOKS that release these beautifully illustrated and built slipcased editions of classic literature. I have almost all of their output but INFERNO was the one picked up in 2025. When you get all editions together on your shelf, they look stunning.

I am not a manga fan, but two series that made my must read and must own list in 2025 were LEVIATHAN and DRCL. DRCL because of its beautiful art, engaging story and diversity of characters and ethnicities displayed in non-stereotypical ways. LEVIATHAN also for its stellar art nd simply gripping storylline. Both were release in more upscale formats in terms of quality of production, while still maintaining very affordable prices, which I greatly appreciated

Lastly I'm going to shout out those 4 small tan and brown hardcover books by publisher AULA LUCIS and made available by Anathema Publishing. I picked up the last book in the series this year. I love this collected edition project of a 400 year old treatise on the esoteric and the magical. Just beautifully two-color type-designed little collectibles.
