Send Us Your Shelf Porn!
- Posted on July 8, 2009 - 11:02 AM by Chris Mautner

Time once again for Send Us Your Shelf Porn, where visitors from across wide and wooly expanses of the Internet come to examine what the comic collecting hoi polloi have on their bookshelves.
Our contributor this week is Asoka Jayasinghe, who has a small but well stocked collection that he's eager to go through shelf by shelf. Let's not keep him waiting any longer, shall we? Click on the link and let him begin the tour ...



This is my modest yet cherished trade-paper back collection. You can probably tell from my pictures that I am big DC fan but I always enjoy a good story from any company.


I have some great Marvel titles and a few random selections like Squee’s Wonderful Big Giant Book of Unspeakable Horrors, and Ultra: Seven Days (both on the top shelf).


At the very bottom of my shelf to the left are a bunch of Elseworlds titles such as Superman’s Metropolis, Batman in Darkest Knight, Robin 300, Gotham by Gaslight, Speeding Bullets, The Nail, etc.

On the very top of the shelf is the classic Bat-mobile on top of Absolute Kingdom Come.

The Framed Superman picture is from some random artist from the San Diego comic-con that I purchased a few years ago.

Thanks for taking the time to look at my collection!

Time for some stronger shelves, stat! Good collection, and not so ridiculously large that you know most of it will never be read more than once.

Yeah: bowing shelves = time for a trip down to Ikea.

I'm trying to figure how these are sorted.
What's that Kirby book on the right side of the top shelf?

Love that sag. I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one who puts his PF books with trades.
Neat stuff!

Got the same problem with sagging shelves for my comics. Just take the shelf down and put in on upside down and it'll start to even itself out.

"What’s that Kirby book on the right side of the top shelf?"
Looks like that big Evanier book from a year or two ago, "Kirby: King of Comics."
