Re-reading EVERY comic?

[dewline]

It's an ambitious project.

comicsworthread alerted me to something that raferroberts has announced over at Tumblr that he's getting ready to start in the new year: re-reading every comic he owns.

It's ambitious of him. I'm pretty sure that I won't be able to match him, even should he fail. My collection, irrationally gathered as it's been over the decades, is far more than I can hope to handle. I should really consider a culling for any number of reasons, but it's going to be a while before I can begin to figure out how to manage it. And because I bought it all in order to read it, and some of it well before I even considered the issues of re-saleability...well, I'm not likely to get a lot for most of it should I ever sell it off.

At any rate, it's a reminder to get my other library sectors properly catalogued as best I can.

One more thing to work on in 2013.

when i last stopped counting (10+years ago) I had over 35,000 physical comics in boxes. Although I stopped physical books last year, I have almost 2000 digital comics on my iPad.

Ain't possible for me until I retire! (and even then... ;) )

...yeah. Pretty much my own situation, although I've never bothered counting.
