10 Years furnished with comics

There's a thread over at a forum I like asking "what comic books do you reread?"  It almost sounds like once people have a comic or a book, they read it once and then file it away somewhere on a bookshelf or in a nice longbox and never take another look at the book.  Myself, I'm always digging through boxes or searching through my shelves to find something.  Sometimes I'll reread the whole thing and other times, I'll just want to page through certain pages or scenes, loosing myself in the way a certain bit of dialogue is delivered or how a line is set perfectly on the page.

Here is a visual look at the books that I've gone back to again and again over the past 10 years.  These are the books that even now, revisiting the covers, I want to dig out and relive the stories again in them.

And, yes, I'm ripping off Johnny Bacardi and his original image-based Best Of list.
