Bought these yesterday:

Continuing to expand my graphic novel collection:









All of these editions are hardcovers as I refuse to buy trade paperbacks any longer. Also, several of these are Absolute Editions, which are enlarged and make reading IMHO much more enjoyable and also exposes the beauty of the artwork. I bought all of these graphic novels from InStockTrades except for the Wonder Woman Omnibus by George Perez, which I bought from Amazon. All were bought at heavily discounted prices.

These are nice - love the WYWH shirt (my copy of the album has the same artwork as this) .

Thanks, I'm particularly interested in the vinyl since I've got my record player up and running.

Yeah, I've got several new vinyl recordings that I'd like to test drive.

Even at 3x that it would still be a great deal - one of the best Miles boxes ever released. Congratz   

Thanks!

Bought the new Steven Wilson remix and 5.1 surround sound mix of this classic Hackett album:



Wilson has also done Hackett's Please Don't Touch, but I'm waiting on Voyage of the Acolyte. I'm also hoping Wilson will be able to remix Genesis' early albums. Those albums are in dire need of it! Let's hope Tony Banks and the rest of the band give him the approval to do it.

Bought a new record this week - Red House Painters' second self-titled album:

[Autumn Leaves]

Latest purchase:



Changed my mind about getting this but finally pulled the trigger on it today - Bon Iver's new record.
I read some mixed reviews of this album online so I am very curious about it (and I really like the previous 2 Bon Iver records).

I just bought this collection of Bukowski poetry. I don't usually post what I buy (or all I listen to or all I watch) however I recently finished reading him for the first time - 'The Most Beautiful Woman in Town & Other Stories' - and was surprised by what I found. I can't say that he speaks to me exactly, but what he described and even more, the manner in which he described it was kind of familiar, and so perhaps even (although I'm sure this isn't the word I'm looking for) comforting? Huh.
