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!

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!

Top Types of Comics By DC and Marvel

Hi! This post happens to be...(cue drumroll) my 50th post at Evan's Library! Today, I'm going to tell you the top seven types of comics made by DC and Marvel, at least in my opinion. It was originally my top five, but I just like so many of them so much, I just changed it to seven.
Number seven is the MARVELS books. While having a head-scratching ending, the rest was really good, though I didn't get how he was more freaked out about the First Coming of Galactus than the first, which kind of contradicted the comics. Oh, well.
Number six is the Marvel monster comics from the Atlas Era. You know, like Groot and Moomba? (To learn about some of the monsters, click here.) I find them pretty cool.
Number five is the Golden Age Sub-Mariner comics. Not only did a huge Namor-Original Human Torch battle be made really cool in the MARVELS comics, I just like them.
Number four is Golden Age Superman comics. Again, I just like them.
Number three is the Silver Age Superman comics. While some were a little goofy and some didn't make sense, I still like them.
Number two is the classic Silver Age Legion of Super-Heroes stories. There was decent art, fantastic characters, and good storylines.
And number one is...the Plastic Man comics from the early forties to mid-fifties!
JUST KIDDING! That isn't my favorite type of comic! (And it probably never will be.) My REAL favorite is...
The incredible Lee/Kirby Fantastic Four run for the first 102 issues of Fantastic Four. Great artwork, great stories...Not many comicbooks (and not ANY types of comicbooks)are better than that run.
And number zero, for being good, but not quite on the Top Seven, is every single other comicbook published by DC and Marvel during the Silver Age of Comics. They're really good!
Bye!

Mistake!

I just found a mistake in comics! I was reading a post on the blog Silver Age Comics, and I found an image from Adventure Comics #289. Here it is:

In the second panel, it shows Krypton with a red sun, as it's almost always depicted, but in the first panel, it's shown with a yellow sun, like Earth. What happened?

Top 5 Coolest Superhero Costume Parts

Hi! I can't believe that my last post was almost a MONTH ago! I'm sorry! Anyway, this post is a list of the five coolest superhero costume parts, in no particular order. (Well, in my opinion, at least.)
1. The Batman utility belt (Click on the image for a better view.)
With a utility belt, Batman can carry his important anti-crime equipment in a non-bulky container. Where would he be without it?
2. The third Robin's shuriken
Face it: a detachable symbol on your costume that doubles as a ninja throwing star is cool.
3. Barry Allen's winged boots
It's a good idea to have the Fastest Man Alive wear winged boots. It just shows how fast he is.
4. The Legion of Super-Heroes flight ring
It can make people fly, act as a tracking device, and send an emergency signal.
5. Superman's entire costume
I love it, to sum it up. Bye!
