1. I want people to still read my previous posts
2. I don't know how to tear it down.
So, that's my last official post. As of when I publish this, Evan's Library is an archive site. Bye!

The End.
Hi. I'd like to say I'm quitting Evan's Library. I've done over 50 posts, but I haven't done one for months because my heart isn't in it. I don't have the willpower to keep doing it. So, I'm stopping writing posts, and I'm leaving this site up for two reasons:
1. I want people to still read my previous posts
2. I don't know how to tear it down.
So, that's my last official post. As of when I publish this, Evan's Library is an archive site. Bye!

The Ultimate Comicbook Collection, Part Two
Hi! Sorry for the looooooooooong, huge, Gim Allon-sized, gap in posts! I was on vacation! (More about that to follow.) Here's some more about the ultimate comicbook collection for under $1,000,000:
Actually, I think that the comics would be in chronological order in the rooms. There would be a desk with two things: an area to examine and read comics, and a computer to catalog it.
As for location, it would be in Philadelphia. According to this site here, it's number eight least dangerous U.S. city out of the 50 most populated, not counting drought and fires. Also, it's a big city.
Here's the floor plan:

And that's the second part of the Ultimate Comicbook Collection for under $1,000,000! Bye!
P.S. Next up are my VACATION POSTS! Here's a cool picture of a house in Scotland. I bet Charlie Brown would like it. Coconuts, the pain don't hurt:

The Ultimate Comicbook Collection, Part One
Hi! Today, I'm going to talk about what I think might be the ultimate comicbook collection that costs less than $1,000,000. (Hey, comicbooks are expensive!)
First, we have the building. I'd say it would be underground, like this:
Side View
Next up is safety. Of course, everything would be insured against fire, robbery, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, and insurance agents, but, because of the more hard to replace comicbooks, there would be a system that sucks out all the air in the room whenever it detects carbon monoxide. There would also be an oxygen tank in case anyone gets trapped inside during a fire. That, and a really, really good dehumidifier.
Now we get to the fun part. The comicbooks! Near the entrance, there would be a complete collection of the Marvel Masterworks books and DC Archives books. For the shelves, there would be display cases with lexon fronts. (A really strong glass-like substance.) The more valuable the comics are, the farther back they would be.
In the very back, there would be Golden Age comics, including All-Star Comics #3.
Stay tuned for Part 2 of the ultimate comicbook collection!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGH!!!!!
Four days after my blog's birthday, I'm publishing this post, thanks to technical difficulties and my incredibly bad memory. I've finally got it to work, so here's my birthday post:
This post is being published one year after my first post at Evan's Library! I can't believe that I've been doing it for almost a year! When I started it, I had no idea how long I would be doing it. It could have been one post to who knows how long. But, I'm happy to say that I've surpassed 50 posts and have been doing it for a year! Happy birthday, Evan's Library!

Evan's Library
Hi! Today, I'm going to show you the (nonexistent) actual Evan's Library while it was still a home! We begin with the front view, which can be seen here. Next up is the angle view, here. Finally, we have the entrance view, here. Now, a little history:
Evan's Library used to be a mansion owned by billionaire James Simons (actual person) in Boston. On May 31st, 2010, he gave it to me, who turned it into the world's only comics-specialized library! Here's a sneak peek at the Marvel Masterworks shelf:
Pretty impressive, huh? So come to Boston, across the street from the famous public library, and see Evan's Library! (Okay, don't. It doesn't exist. But still..!)
P.S. Next up is my EVAN'S LIBRARY FIRST BIRTHDAY POST!

Evan's Superman Set
Hi! Have you ever seen the "sets of Superman"? You know, like the DVD collections such as the Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition. (You can read about it here.)
Well, I've designed my OWN set of Superman, and it's called Evan's Superman Set. First off, we have the picture of the front:
You'll notice that inside the carrying handle of the steel-reinforced aluminum box is a loop, which is for this padlock:
Of course, every padlock needs a key, (or a combination) and what better key to have than a key to the Fortress of Solitude?
Maybe it would be attached to a necklace so you don't lose it. Now you've seen the exterior, but what about the interior? Well, I made a diagram of the inside: (Click on it for a better view.)
And it would all be sold for $99! Oh, and in case you can't read the note at the bottom of the diagram, all of the products inside are for sale, except the signed photo of John Byrne and the encyclopedia, which is the wrong size. So how do you like it? I really wish it was a real set, but I designed it, and I know what I like so that's just me. Bye!
