Great video 🎉
wow this old video and almost no views you really need some credit
Really great content! Thanks for sharing this!
Cool stuff! I really need to learn sign language but I enjoyed the video.
get the curve
Hi Grant! I was wondering if you ever considered trying to expand your viewership by typing in a commentary that could either show on screen as text, or act as a voice over just using Google Voice to accompany your ASL for viewers who don't know it? It might be hard to sync up with exactly what you are saying on screen, but you could just have short bits of text-to-speech that correlate with what you show on screen? It's not that necessary for Haul videos since it's mostly just showing what you got, but would be particularly useful if you also wanted to do some reviews or other content. Also, you did get some great books but you show the covers and interiors so fast that there's no time to read the creator's names or get more than the briefest glimpse of the art. Maybe hold the shot a couple of beats longer? I had to freeze the video to see the book that was done by James Harren. On the plus side I didn't have to freeze it for the Dr. Strange collections because I recognized Frank Brunner and Gene Colan's art instantly. ;) Anyway, cool haul.
Hairy filter!!! Great Romnibus pickup - I’m in the fence about it. You grabbed some other interesting titles that I haven’t read. Kitty wants in frame!!!!!
Nice haul man 🥵
Unfortunately I don't read sign language but those two Promethea HC's are gorgeous. This almost looks like an Ollie's Haul (or a Whatnot seller flipping books from Ollie's), but I don't recall seeing most of these books at Ollie's last time I went. Granted that was 3-4 months ago, so maybe they got some fresh GNs in without announcing it on the flyer? Anyway, very nice haul. Congrats!
Great vid boss 👍🏽
Big haul!!! Wow - then another box! The only one we bought the same was Epic Collection Star Wars Empire 8. I got two unordered copies of Unnatural Order too! Must be promotional.
Hey buddy, its worth telling you, your smoke detector is beeping. Stay safe!
I watched you drive to work! lol.
eh.
Watership Down looks beautiful. I have book 1 of Astro City - I started it but got bored - I need to keep going. All the others look great.
I need to read Will Eisner. I read the first volumes of Invincible and really liked it. You got a huge Batman collection Arkham - I haven’t read those. Fever Dream looks like great art. The Green Lantern reprint at are very nice - I need those. I have the Wonder Woman reprints in Omni format but your versions are nice too. Batman, Superman reprints - you scored. George Perez Teen Titans is soo awesome - lived on that as a kid.
I loooove WhatNot so much but I’ve become addicted! I had to delete the app two days ago…😢. I have the first American Vampire but not the second.
Yes I need to do too!
I didn’t show my haul this month. I like your two filing cabinets - I really need to do that. I have one of the more traditional filing cabinets but yours are better. You’re the second person showing The Girl from the Other Side. Kitty again lol. She likes your new books. I got that She-Hulk too.
Yeah I got those file cabinets for cheap via Facebook Marketplace and another one on craigslist. It was primarily used for floppies comic books, but I stopped collecting it for the past few years. It still has some comic books but a few others like the retro Atari set and some junk. The goal is to empty those books then use some graphic novels in it eventually.
Love seeing the kitty. I can hear her softly purring - more kitty - less you. lol. Only kidding. I don’t often buy books with art like in Al Capone but when you opened it, it looks interesting.
I have noticed that your quality of UA-cam content is good. But the UA-cam channel problem is that your video is not much engagement like in your video has not many views, likes, comments, and subscribers.
Did you make that art piece that you showed? It is cool. OOOH, that Dreadstar set is cool. I had all the comics as a teen. Lol - funny when you turned the stones right-side up. I haven’t seen The Girl from the Other Side set - are they manga? I’ve heard of Drifter, but haven’t read it yet - the art looks nice. I also haven’t read Fables, but it is on my list…
Lol that was my mom who made this art and mailed it to me. She's happy. Yes, The Girl from the Other Side is manga. As a completist, I try to complete a few series in my collection before I read it. Drifter (only four TPB) and Fables. The Fables have about 30 TPBs together including all spin-off books. Finally this silly cat name Brodie, and he's nosy around as usual. I have another two cats which are deaf. (Mom and daughter) they typically don't bother me unless it's dinner time.
Is there something wrong with the sound?
Old Fogey - that’s me!!! Did you get it signed? How cool. It looks like a fun book too.
I watch u video 😮
Hello l look good handsome 🎉
I got my haul too! Let’s see what you bought - - - I want to read Wynd. I haven’t heard it Soggy Landing but it looks adorable. I’ve read Irongheart (not sure if it’s those issues) and I loved it. Alex Ross art - I have that in the hardcover editions but the Omni is nicer. Dementia 21 is something I’d never buy, so after you read it, I want to know your opinion.
Wonderful haul of books!
I did two Whatnot sessions this weekend. It’s too dangerous for me - addictive!! You got some interesting books. I have the Epics. I’ve never heard of MarijuanaMan. That was a great price.
Yeah, they are dirt cheap. I did read Marijuana Man and it was short & weird ha-ha. Yeah whatnot is dangerous. Have you shown the whatnot books on UA-cam yet.
@@GrantLairdJr88 i did it Friday night and Saturday morning. I’ll show them after they arrive.
Great haul dude! Jelous of the Scumbag DCBS cover. Might make the jump soon
Hey! I’m waiting for my DCBS order - I need to check if it’s going to arrive soon. Dang - you pulled out a bunch! Righteous Thirst looks great - I haven’t bought those….I order every Epic, so I should get that Star Wars. I have the complete collections for Superior SpM but I still need to read them. Great haul!
That’s a big box - let’s see what’s in there. I don’t know anything about Will Eisner but that biography looks long. I need to read more older comics like Annie. Grant, I have 10 or so of the DC Archives if you’d like to trade them for something - I don’t collect them.
It's unfortunate it got damaged. Always seems to be the bottom corner. Must have been dropped.
Oh my goodness! I’ve been wondering where you’ve been! I hope you are well. The corner got dinged up. I bet that’s a great read - I have heard of it but don’t think I ordered it - I’m reading the Black Science compendium. So great to see you again.
Great

Surdo
Lucille and Renee - look French? The Book Tour - I don’t know that one. The cat wanted the spotlight! - so cute!!! You’re reviewing a lot of independent books. I’d like to read more of these. Wynd looks interesting too - maybe Japanese anime style. Now Razorbacks I think you mentioned - you finished it! I’ve read They Called Us Enemy. The James Bond book is huge! - must be from newspapers. Ooh - I want a copy of the Sale/Loeb colors book. Thanks for sharing - you read a lot!!! It’s great seeing you.
Your bookshelves are cool!! I’m so happy to see a review - I’ve not read Gung-Ho. The art looks really good.
Hi Grant. I don’t know why, but I missed your recent videos. I came looking and saw that I missed a couple. I hope you have been well. This is an important video.
Love the graphics, thanks for sharing 👍
Miss longtime see up you add save
I’m waiting for a video - what comics have you been reading?
Hey!!! I miss you!! I need a new comic video. I’m going to give you a shout out on my channel today.
Why is your neighbor walking around your house?
You have seriously been on UA-cam forever! That’s so awesome. I didn’t get the joke….lol.
Your smile when you put on the clear new lenses was priceless. You are looking good! Then you did it again with the sun glass lenses. I’m glad you like them. I’ve never had those snap ons - mine change and that was seriously expensive (prohibitively so!). Let me know if I missed any important points.
I’d really like to know what you think of this book. Would you write me a quick comment about it? I’d never heard of it before.
That book looks beautiful- I have the paperbacks. 😢 I’ve only read the first two (maybe the first absolute edition) but it’s really good. I like your PAC-Man shirt! Wow. When you put them together at the end, they looked amazing. So jealous.
Very danger JW! Lied!
