I'll be with y'all in a second. Where'd you go? Where'd you come from? God, I know. Ba-do-ba-do, why? I've seen you tanning alone without a... Boop-a-dee, boop-a-dee, boop. Ooh, almost didn't make it. Hit the ground running. Computers still be giving me pop-ups from turning on. Hey, yo, Tanean, how you doing? It is hot in Alabama.  Hello, Ty, how are you doing? Hey, James, I am doing fantastic, yes. And I hope you are doing well too. Let me get some stuff around here. Look at me. I look like I just got out of the pool, bruh. You're OK?  You guys get a lot of humidity out there? That close to the water? I've never been to Oregon. I used to live in California, but it was like... I didn't live anywhere near the water, so. I bet, Sloan, how you doing, Sloan? You changed your name. You should just be Sloan Chessman, right, with some numbers behind it. Ty, it's been raining every single afternoon. It's the best part of this time of year for me, because it'll be like 90 to 100 degrees all day long, and then it'll just plummet to like 75, 80 degrees. Hey, Shiraz, how you doing? I ain't seen you enough. Yeah, it's been a minute. Yes, it has been a minute. Been a long time, brother. I hope you're doing all right. Central Oregon, anyways. Negative dry as hell, high desert. OK, I got you. Yeah, when I lived in California, everybody's like, oh, it must be so cool there because you're right next to the Pacific. I'm like, it depends on where you live, man. Where I lived, it was just hot. But we did not have humidity, so I prefer no humidity to the stuff that we got here. Because here, you walk outside, instant sweat. Out there, it takes a while, but that's also really dangerous, because you don't know you're getting hot. Where'd you come from? Where'd you go? Where'd you come from? Oh, I'm good. I added my middle name because a lot of the times that I come in on other channels, people thought I was a dude. Lazy Homebody here that's always in chat, she has the same issue. But get this, it's because everybody thinks her name looks like Lazy Homeboy. I had that issue, and numerous other people have that issue. I don't know what it is. Some people say they don't have any problem seeing as Lazy Homebody, but they still assume she's a dude. I've never heard any, is there a dude's name Sloan? Dude's named Sloan. It is a gender-neutral baby name. I have never met a dude named Sloan. Of course, I've never met anybody named Sloan before you. But that is neither here nor there. This is going to be 30 minutes of me wiping my face off.  Not only is it hot, it's just the humidity. It feels like you're breathing soup. Feels like 101. You went to school. What kind of serendipity is that? I have never met anybody named Sloan, and you, a Sloan yourself, went to school with a dude named Sloan. Hey, zoop, how you doing, my friend? This feels like an oven on. Let me move that away from you. That's kind of right, showing all the reflections of the... I'm cutting all this beginning stuff out when I re-upload this video. Oh, good lord, Jesus. Lord, Jesus. So what y'all been up to? Nice, cool 101 today. Beats the 108. It's been all week. That's disgusting. Get an ice bag. I have one, but I am so picky when it comes to my videos that I don't want... I have one of those, it's this long. It's the gel beads that you can freeze. It's a bag of those. Put it on your neck, and I don't want that in the video. So I am being stubborn for the sake of YouTube. Yeah, it's weird. Our names were spelled exactly the same too. How else would you spell Sloan? S-L-O-N-E? Oh yeah, I love. I love metal. Humanity's last breath. Never heard of them. Humanity's last breath. All right, I'll leave this tab open, and I'll check that. I like their aesthetic. Looks like a horror movie aesthetic. Very cool. Buster Odeholm. Khaled Tomer. Philippe Danielsson. Marcus Holtkwist. Are they Swedish? Norwegian? What they be? Very, very interesting. I like that. That's Facebook. I'm looking for Sweden. I thought so. I thought I recognized those names.  I used to talk to my friend. I can type it out better than I can speak it, but anyways, yeah. Yep, with an E. Okay, got you. I will check out Humanity's last breath. Thanks for the wreck, Kane. I appreciate you. I need one of those ice buckets at Marvin Brand. I'm talking from a row.  Like he was late all the time. He didn't even show up on the day they were supposed to start filming. Yeah, that documentary is amazing. But the entire thing was just an absolute clusterfuck. And I love it. Oh, how many minutes? We're seven minutes in. I can cut now. Buster writes most of it. His is a great... He is a great mix engineer as well. Awesome, I'll check him out. The way this usually happens, Tane, is I'll go over to check out a new band that someone tells me about and I will just be like, oh, I've heard them before because what I'll do on Amazon Music is I'll start an album and I won't play loop. So after the album is done, it'll just start playing bands that are like that band. And I'll listen to them and I'll thumbs up. I won't pay any attention to who the band is. I'm terrible about that. Which brings me to another topic, that something that I wasn't gonna talk about. But so when I was younger, my number one favorite thing to watch, other than Howard the Duck, of course, y'all know how much I love Howard the Duck. But I would buy live performances like Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer. Who else did I own? I had a Primus, numerous VHS cassettes and then DVDs when DVDs started coming out. And I would literally, that was my favorite thing to watch, other than Howie. And I don't know what happened. Like at some point in time in my life, I just stopped doing that. Anyways, long story short, I go over, I'm on YouTube shorts and I'm just scrolling through and it comes up with this two minute interlude from the Red Hot Chili Peppers ahead of them starting Californication. And it's just a jam session that they do for two minutes before the song actually starts. And I'm sitting down just vibing and core memory unlocked. I'm like, I used to watch stuff like this all the time. Why did I ever stop? So I went over there, I watched the entire hour and 41 minutes of Red Hot Chili Peppers at Slain Castle, almost said Sloan, Slain Castle, and I believe it's Ireland, don't quote me on that. And then after that, I went and watched a couple slipknot live concerts. In full, I was up to like four o'clock in the morning, just watching live concerts and it was amazing. I felt like a kid again. In my heart, in my chest meat, I felt like a kid again. For those of you that are waiting on the show, we're starting at five, just like the scheduling said. I'm just here to talk to my peeps. But anyways, brings me to a question for you guys. What's your favorite live performance that you've ever been in, you've ever been to, or that you've watched on video or whatever, it doesn't matter. What's your favorite live performance? Where did you come from? Hey, Hailey, how you doing? I'm sat painting as I listen to you, that's awesome. I love it when people do other stuff while we're doing this. It's like we're hanging out at your house. I am starting to cool off, just a little bit. I try to do this early enough that people in the UK like Hailey can come. But this is like the hottest part of the day. It's chat broken. Ain't nobody said anything in like two minutes. Testing, testing. When it gets this quiet, I keep expecting YouTube to shut down. Oh, there we go. It's broken, I think. Oh no. The last thing I saw was Zoop said, I love that doc. If anyone else said something, I did not see it. I saw Nine Inch Nails Live. I love Nine Inch Nails. They were amazing. Also, Alanis Morcette Live.  I could not speak the next day after both of them, both amazing and Metallica's S&M DVD got me into, got me into metal. And my favorite show was Ice Nine Kills. Ice Nine Kills. Now I'm seeing people. Peope? Okay, Boggle Nuts. Pink Floyd in Toronto. Awesome. Awesome. Are you a Canuck Sloan? I'm not sure I knew that. Not that it matters, but I was just wondering. All right, let me post the stream over on the Discord. The Discordians know all about me now. Lamb of God, Killidelfia? I love some Lamb of God. I really, really do. That sounds like something from a horror film. I see people. They do songs about books and movies. That's cool. One of my favorite albums is Among the Living by Anthrax. And Among the Living is of course about who knows, who knows, who knows what Among the Living is about.  Gotcha. I didn't think you were. That's why I was asking. Oh no, anything but that. Not people. All right, Nettles. Well, thank you for dropping in. The show won't be starting until 5 p.m., but I'm glad you're here. And I understand when she gets off, you're going to get knocked out. Let me stop. Let me stop. Anyway, does anybody know what Anthrax is Among the Living is about? Anybody in the audience? They did songs about the shining in it. Cool, cool. That's a hint. Not just King, but what book by King? Shoes. Among the Living is about shoes that is so epic. The Great Gatsby. Yeah, especially the Leonardo DiCaprio version. You know, Leo loves thrash metal. You got Scott Ian's autobiography. That's cool. I didn't even know he had it out. He's a fantastic player. Yep, it was The Stand. Ding, ding, ding. Jimmy Brown is right. Among the Living. I mean, yeah. The name kind of gives it away once you know it's King. But yeah, it's The Stand. And they have loads of stuff based on books. I thought I'd take a shot in the dark with my lucky guesses. I'm thinking about doing a trivia night or a game night with Stephen King trivia, but not like anything from his books, just like other people referencing him.  Where did you come from? Where did you go? Where did you come from? God magic. I had Chris come out here and put all of the books that I couldn't reach that are on the bottom shelf down here. I had him come out here and take them all and put them on tables and chairs over here. So all the paperback stuff is over here. Your painting is going wrong. There's no such thing as a painting going wrong. Only a painting not becoming what you expected it to become. Ooh, I had a time today. I went and I replied to over a year and a half of comments that I never replied to because anytime I go onto YouTube Studios app, it says you have comments you haven't responded to. And then it just like stares me in the face.  And if they were ugly comments, I just ignore them. And I found a couple funny ones too. They're over on the discord, by the way. If you want to go to photos and you can see the comments that I replied to. But anyways, yeah, a year and a half. And most of the stuff was like people saying, what's wrong with you? Why don't you like Billy Summers? What's wrong with you? Why don't you like Eyes of the Dragon? What's wrong with you? Yeah, or I lost complete respect for you as soon as you said this. And I'm like, you are one of a hundred thousand comments.  I was wondering why you liked the comment I made nine months ago. See, see, I just, I didn't see it. There's a lot of stuff on there that I did not see. I'm sure Lazy is gonna come in at some point in time and be like, why were you?  I, once I comment or like it, like the comment, it goes away. So, and I don't see it anymore. But yeah, I'm trying to weed out all of the comments I haven't responded to. Also, hint, hint, nudge, nudge, wink, wink. It all comes down to engagement. The more I engage with you, the better the channel does. What was the most disappointing book or movie for you? Easy answer, easy answer. This hunk of garbage right here, never world wake. It's so bad, I don't even put it alongside. I don't even put it spying out on my shelf. Well, I do put it spying out, but it's hidden in the shadows. See, look, now you see it, now you don't. Anyway, y'all know I love Marisha Pessel. This was the hottest, hottest of garbage. Hello, no water, Feliz. Hello, no water, Feliz. How you doing? But this, this is it.  Oh, hey, yeah, I've read, just bought in a, I've read all of Stephen King's books at least three times. Who's it? Alf and Chris? Did I get that right? Alf and Chris? I'll just call you Chris. That might not be right, but Alf and, Alf inches? No, oh, Alf and Chris, it is Alf and Chris. Okay, I'll do, I'll do Chris. Last name, Chris.  I'm sorry, Ailee, I wasn't trying to pick on their name. I really wasn't. I'm just, sometimes my eyes do weird things. What bed did I lose to read elevation three times? Well, I read it once and then audio booked it twice to make sure it was as bad. Yes, Si, thank you, Si. Appreciate it, long days and pleasant nights. I got a feeling we're gonna get busy in here tonight. So I won't be reading all of chat because I gotta show off the books too. Yeah, well, I don't wanna say it this way, but it's so much easier to listen to that book. It just blows right by. It's like three hours long, if that. And I put it on times two speed. So it's like an hour and a half. It's like watching a movie. So I'm not really losing too much time. Had to put the paintbrush down because I laughed. Oh, okay. I didn't mean to pick, but I didn't mean for it to be funny. Hopefully at some point in time, I'm gonna cool off. The air conditioning is down to 60 out here, but I forgot to get it really low before I started. But yeah, I try to, anyways, on writing is fantastic, Alphen. It is fantastic. It is amazing. I talk about it in several videos. Most of the time I'm quoting that book when I'm giving advice, and sometimes I forget to say where it came from. But on writing is absolutely fantastic. And I got, oh, we're gonna show it off, but I got three different copies of it. So who wants the annoying task of counting how many books? I guess I could just do tally marks myself. But does someone wanna do me a solid and do a tally mark every single time? Because Zach Books posted he had 400 copies of Stephen King's books. And I'm wondering if I have him beat. If not, if any of y'all wanna do it, then I'll just do it when I redo the video. Anyways, I'm putting this hunk of junk back. We're not here about that. But that is the most never world wake by Marisha Pessels, one of the biggest disappointments. It's easily the biggest disappointment. Cause I've had some big Stephen King disappointments, elevation, Billy Summers, Wizarding Glass. I've had some big disappointments when it comes to him, but I didn't think Marisha Pessels could do any wrong. Have you read Cabal? I tried it. I'm not a big fan of his novels, but I have it. Cabal.  Sorry. Come on. I got all of, I have all of, Floyd Barker's books. But I haven't been able to finish any of his novels except for the Damnation Game, The Great and the Secret Show, when I was real, real young. It was the first novel I ever read by him and I liked it. And let's see the other one, Damnation Game. Oh yeah, The Thief of Always is my favorite one. I have read Most Works, No Bachman yet. You and Mike's books reviews are my guys, man. Appreciate you sparking a new forever hobby for me. That's awesome. I love hearing from people who started picking up books because of either the channel or one of my reviews or whatever it may be. So that brings me a lot of joy. Thank you Alvin. Cable man times two speed, elevated up. Like woo, let's get this thing over with. Yeah, I'm excited. I've been wanting to do this for a while. In fact, let me go ahead and show these off as kind of like a precursor. Most of you guys will remember this stuff because it was hanging up behind my head for the longest time in the old videos. But in case you haven't, here's my nightmare before Christmas Pennywise. You'll do the tally. Thank you, Hailey. I appreciate you. My Pennywise, if he was a character in Nightmare Before Christmas. I will, I'll tell you when. When I start showing off the books, just count every single book I pull out. Oh, and this is a, this isn't Stephen King, but this is, the person who did this no longer likes me so I don't mention their name. They wanted to draw me as a comic, a superhero. And I was like, can I be a villain instead?  Hello, John Smith. How doth thou do? I got another one that's a, what's her face from hereditary?  Tony Collette, Tony Collette. Hey, Tony, what's going on? Speaking of Tony, what? Well, that was, that was interesting. Colleen, no, Tony Collette. All right, where do you guys want me to start? You want me to start with the first edition collection, the limited or the paperbacks? Where should I start? The limited, that's one vote for limited. Hey, Jake, how you doing brother? Start small, start with the paperbacks. First things first, I think. Wow, everybody's answered something different. If no one else has any more votes, I will start where Tony said to start because Tony was first. Where's my water? Paperbacks and build upwards. All right, so we got two for paperbacks, two for limited, one for the first editions. I think I might want to start with paperbacks just because it'll be easier, but first, first, limited, limited. All right, people want limited, we'll start with the limited. I am going to go find my water because I'm pouring sweat. It'll cool off in here in a little bit, but let me go get my water and I'll be right back, all hail the chair. Nevermind, it was hidden behind a stack of books.  All right, come here box of plenty. So I am going to go through and tell you guys the year and whether or not it's a first edition paperback also. I'm going to give you guys as much detail as I possibly can. Thank you, Hailey, appreciate it. We are here. Hey, Douglas, how you doing? I saw your comment earlier, but I didn't say hi to you. Oh, I have to make some room. And then when I cut all this up, I will do an intro that's not on camera. Okay, so first up, we have the Gunslinger.  And I know I have the plume editions, but I don't know where they are. Another two things that you're not gonna, so, Hailey, go ahead and count seven, seven books. No, four, four books. So with this one, it would be five, but also count two more. So it would be seven, seven plus one, or already to eight with this one. The reason for that is I have a Gunslinger, drawing of the three, Wastelands, and Wizard and Glass in the plume editions. I just don't know where they are. And my first edition of Cary and my 25th anniversary of it are both in lock boxes. If you guys watch the short of the tree that fell, that's one of the reasons. I've lost my collection twice already. I don't wanna lose, especially those books again, because the Cary cost me, I had a very high limit credit card and it cost me quite a bit. I don't like telling people how much because I feel foolish now, but I got a first-first edition at a bookshop in Maine. It's not signed, but it is a first-first. It's got the cloth binding and everything, and the 25th anniversary of it in mint conditions still sealed in its package. Hello, Bookable. Yes, Gunslinger time seven. Three, I mean 12, sorry. Sorry, sorry, so we are already up to eight. Thank you, Bookable, how you doing? All right, so this one is the reprint paperback. This is the extended edition, and this one was published in 2003. So right around the time when he was going to end the The Dark Tower series. No, after he had already ended it, because what, it was 2002? Anyways, we got the first edition of Wolves of the Colour we'll look in there to find out. Next one, next up, Drawing of the Three. It probably would have been the same year because I believe this was a box set. Yeah, 2003. Originally published in what, 87? Yeah, 1987 for Drawing of the Three. The Gunslinger was originally published, 1982. Next up, where did eight come from? The Gunslinger plus seven more. Yes, so we should be at, hang on. So let's say there's seven books I can't show, eight, nine, Wastelands would be 10. So this version of the Wastelands, published in I'm sure 2003 because I'm pretty sure that this was a box set. Yeah, 2003, it was originally published in 1991. Yes, we're at 10, we are exactly at 10. So just count one at a time from here on out Haley. Next up, Wizarding Glass, same edition. Once again, I'm sure this was a box set. This one of course was 2003, originally published in 98. Or at least the paper, the original paper bags were. What's your favorite Stephen King scene of all time? Of all time? You're gonna have to ask me that some other time. I could, I'm sitting here, oh man. Yeah, I don't, sorry bookable, but it's gonna take me a while. Let me do a video for you, okay? I promise I'll answer you. Next up we have Wind Through the Keyhole, book 4.5 in the series. And this is a pocket books edition. These are signet, all of these are published by signet. And this one was printed in 2013. Sorry, I got hung up. 2013, 2013. All right, next one. We have Wolves of the Kala. And this is the pocket books edition. I loved Wind Through the Keyhole. I absolutely adored it. I really like Young, Young Rowland. I don't like Teenage Rowland, but I do like Young Rowland. First published February 2006, this edition anyways. What I want to say, what I really want to say bookable is the scene from It with Mrs. Kersh. Run honey, run far, far away, yeah. So this one, 2013. This version anyways, I believe is what I said. No, this is 2006.  Yeah, Donald and Grant did the, we'll get to those in a second. But okay, so this one, you guys want to see the spines? Does that matter to you at all? Next we have this atrocious piece of doogie, song of Susanna. I have long said that this one should have been either at the end of Wolves of the Kala or better yet at the beginning of The Dark Tower. Not the series, but the next book. And this one was published, Pocket Books Premium Edition 2006. Next we have The Dark Tower. This one gets, this one gots published, not gets published, what am I talking about here? Boy this stuff is like newspaper. Look how thin it is. I think I got something wet on this one.  This one's 2006 also. So here are the spines, the spines for Joe. And now in, we had votes for the limited and I just completely ignored you guys. So let's jump into that. Y'all, I'm raining. Charlie Jacobs going off on his, what the bad sermon? Iconic, absolutely iconic. Okay, do you guys want the Joe Hill stuff and all that too? Do you want the Owen King, the Tabitha, all that? Or do you just want King? Do you just want daddy? Just daddy. That's one vote for just daddy. All right, I gotta move the fog machine. I did not prepare well for this at all. As you can see, here is the reprint of the Gunslinger. This is the extended version. Like I said, I have the original plume ones. I don't have the original hard covers. Those things are friggin' expensive. This one, and Yonder was published, 2003. These are also my favorite covers. No, you do count this. You count all of them. So whatever you were at, I can, Hailey, if you just want to enjoy the show, I can always just count them when I come back to do the editing. All the backs are the same, so I'm not gonna show the backs anymore. And I'm sure this is 2003. So yeah, this is drawing of the three. These are my favorite covers of these books. That's fine, Hailey, that's fine. Next up, we got the ones that I have wrapped in plastic. This is my favorite cover of this edition and my favorite cover in this series, period. It is so ominous and amazing. I don't care that it's just a steam engine and Blaine is a monorail. Wrapped in plastic, it's fantastic. It's 10 past 11, yeah. Sorry, it's so late, but I couldn't do it any earlier. Not only was it too hot, but I was also busy. Where did you come from? Why is the song stuck in my head? Next up, this is wrapped in plastic too, but only because I'm trying to keep it nice. It is absolutely perfect condition. They say don't wrap your stuff in plastic, but I haven't had any issues with it. I love the keyhole. Notice the keyhole in every single one of these. Except for when through the keyhole, what the fish? And the reason I'm starting up here is that's where all my limits are or the stuff that I value the most in my collection. When through the keyhole, a dark tower novel. It wraps this stuff in plastic to keep it nice. Yes, I do, I do. Honestly, they came wrapped in plastic. I didn't actually do it. If I said I did it, I lied. Oh, y'all, I'm reigning. This was probably a bad decision not to do this later, but I wanted you guys in the UK and across the pond, not in America to be able to come. The page just turned, I thought it was because the plastic will adhere to your cover. The page just turned yellow outside of it. It's oxidation. Hang on, let's prove this right now. Why do book pages turn yellow? When exposed to oxygen over the time, if they're wrapped in plastic, they can't get exposed to oxygen. But no, the reason is for the yellow. Quick test, open it up. Well, these have been, they're white and they've been in plastic since 2003. So 20 years, all right, y'all ready to get to the grants? Let's get to the grants. Those were originally published by Viking. Wolves of the Kala. It's a great cover, not gonna lie. It's a really good cover. Tony just said, oh. Open them up and spray them down with oxygen to check, yeah. Wolves of the Kala. Yeah, I love the cover too. I should go through and like show every, I don't know, that might be not illegal, but it might be copyright infringement to show all the pictures. That's a great picture though. Next up, we gotta show it, it even has a bad cover. Song of Susanna, terrible font.  All right, Hayley, I can't wait to see it.   The Doc Tower, seven, The Doc Tower. Have any other authors done that, named the final book in a series after the series name? Has anyone done that? It'd be like Robert Jordan, or sorry, Brandon Sanderson naming the last book, The Wheel of Time. Roland giving the, what, I have, there's a heart in the way. I gotta wait until someone else types before I can see what all you wrote. Copies of later do I own. Lord, we're, oh fans, okay, there we go. Nettles, all you posted was a period. Like on period, you see how hot I am? This is ridiculous, and we got a long way to go because, oh thank you, duh, I'm sorry, I'm not very bright. Okay, so now we get into the limited and the standalone novellas and other nonsense. We has the Kedi from Cemetery Dance, and yes, I'm going to open them up for you. There's also unboxings of these on the channel, but they're not very good because I did them live back when I had the two megabytes per second, and this was $85, plus shipping and tax, of course. It is stunning, isn't it? Next up, we have the Chonker. And until the, see, let me say something real quick. I was going to wait to redo this until Cemetery Dance released the final two from the double day years, which is the Stand and Pet Cemetery, but it's been four years since I paid for them, and I haven't heard anything about them. But that's just Cemetery Dance. That's what Cemetery Dance does. They rob Peter to pay Paul, so they'll sell a bunch of stuff, collect the money, and then spend it on whatever, and then have to sell more stuff to be able to ship those other books. And yes, it is illegal to do that, but Cemetery Dance is going to do what Cemetery Dance wants to do. Salem's Lot in a blue, blue, blue to full. These are the gift editions. I have to point that out because every time I bring up that they're limited, someone's like, why don't you have the $1,200? Because there's no reason to buy a $1,200 book. He says, after spending enough money to buy a used car on Kerry, this one has always fit extremely poorly. This is the hardest one to get in and out. That's what she said, but yeah, it's a thick boy. It's, I can't imagine how long, it's gonna be the uncut version of the Stand. It's only six, that's only 626 pages, but they use thick. And you know what? You know what I think happened? I think Cemetery Dance shot themselves in the foot with the Stand and it's not possible to print the book because all of these books are almost double this. That's the same book. That's the same book, same book. And this is half the length of the Stand. That's 1,200, 1,300 pages of the Stand. I can't imagine that's a cheap book. It's extra feel. It is, it is. It's gonna take me a while to get it back in. This is awkward. I've never had a problem finding the hole. Next, we have, he's struggling to get it in. Hush, instantly regrets. All right, here we go. We have the shiny. This is probably the prettiest slip case. That's just blank. See how easy that one just slid out? And I think the illustrations in this one are my favorite of the Limited's. Gotta have that snow. They snowed it. Oh yeah, this one was $95. I believe Salem Slot was $95 also. See, I had no problem getting it in that time. Checkmate, ladies. Yeah, the blues and whites yet.  It's what happens when it's 101 and you forget to turn the air conditioning on. All right, here we go. My biggest regret purchase. It took, what, three years to get this? And it wasn't all that great. Sleeping beauties. I mean, it's pretty. Don't get me wrong. It just, it wasn't worth the wait. See how easy that came out? Hang on. If you can't tell, that's a tree with a fox. See, in this one, you see how thick this one is? It's like 800 Siman pages. Hang on. No, it's not. It's 681. Never mind. But this one is even thicker than Salem's lot, so I don't know what happened. But yeah, you see how much easier they go in? Coming up on my favorite limited, my favorite limited revival. This is just absolutely exquisite. It's from Letterhead Press. Absolutely exquisite. It's ribbed for her flesh. No, it's ribbed like a Bible. And it's the same thing on front and back. I have videos of the unboxing of all these in a higher definition on the channel. Just search for unboxing of that specific book, okay? Your current, a sagebrush. You're currently reading tons of Ken Colette. I've never read anything by him, not even like Pillars of the Earth. I know who he is, of course. So you guys don't wanna see the Joe Hill stuff. That's fine. That's fine. It's just some beautiful limits of his stuff. All right. Now moving on to books. One of them is not written by Stephen King, but it's still in the collection. And it still has to do with Stephen King. I don't mind not showing the Joe Hill and Owen and Tabitha stuff because they don't, well, they do kinda tie into Stephen King stuff, but they don't have his name on it. Who knows about this one? Who knows what this is? The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer. Who knows what that one is? Rose red, baby. You absolutely right, Jacob. Edited by Joyce Reardon PhD with an afterward by Stephen Rimbauer. And that's not the case at all. I think I have a feeling I know who actually wrote it. It does not say in here, but I have a feeling I know who wrote it. Anyways, The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer. Now check this out. This is technically, I do not have Ridley Pearson. Hey, skinny puppy. How you doing? I have a needle currently getting pillars from the library waiting for the next Red Rising book. Gotcha. All right, this is technically a limited. It came with a slip case. I do not own the slip case. I bought it secondhand, but this is technically a limited edition. Technically. I know it doesn't look like one. I understand that, but this is the green mile. It came in a slip case. And look at all that oxygen. Look at all that oxygen. All right. Is the person who, Elphin. Elphin, Elphin. Here comes the books you were talking about. We got not one, but dos copies of on writing. Scrivener classics edition and regular Scrivener version. They are gorgeous. They're in really good condition too. I also have a paperback. I'm not going to show the paperback with every one, but let's go ahead and get this out of the way. It's going to be a chore to get these next ones down because they're pretty smushed in there. But we have the first edition of cycle of the werewolf and the movie tie-in that has not only the novella, it has pictures from the set and it has the script in the back. Sweat break. Yes, Corey Hain, not Feldman. It was Corey Hain.  All right. Y'all know what this is. First edition, whatever. Blockade Billy, which also has the short story morality at the end, because if not, this would be like a 50 page book. Public, excuse me, published by Scrivener. The audio book of Blockade is so good. I'll have to check it out. Colorado Kid, do you notice a theme with this line of books? Have you guys figured out the theme yet? Hey, Ron, how you doing? It's the first edition. All the rest of these are first editions. So I don't have to keep on saying it. Joy Lan. And you know this one is a first edition because they completely changed the cover for some odd reason afterward. Her laser toy, that's cool. Yeah, it's a great book. But those last three books are together because they're my least favorite standalone copies. And then for whatever reason, why? Why do I just have two copies of later? I thought maybe it was because I didn't send the giveaway version out, but I 100% sent out the giveaway version. Yeah, we're gonna get to the skinny puppy. We're gonna get to those chat books here in a second. I got two versions of later. I mean, two copies of later. Then we have, here's some more, some just random stuff. Creepshow, the actual comic. This thing is so good. It is beyond amazing. It's really cheaply made. Don't get me wrong, especially for $18. It's almost, it's like, well, picture books are, I almost said picture, picture books.  And let's see if I can find it. Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. Anyways, it don't matter, but here it is. The short story, Weeds or the Bad Death of Jody Verrell. I think it's called Father's Day Ending Scene. Yeah, I can do that. The Lonesome Death of Jody Verrell. Ask and ye shall receive. Y'all know I read this one on a, on stream one night. Charlie and the choo choo. I finally got my cake by Burrell Evans. And last one, oh, here's some other stuff. Casey Daly did this. And also there's a, someone sent me this.  Are you in chat, whoever sent this to me? I knew I should have wrote your name on the back of this. Was it Soup? Did you send, yeah, that's right. It was Soup because you sent it to me with Rage, right? The French edition of Rage. That's right. I remembered before you said anything. Love you, Soup. I appreciate you. Love me some, Soup. All right, and then Stephen King's The Dark Tower, Volume One, The Gunslinger Born. This is cool. I really like this. I really, really like this.  This is just amazing. Love it. All right, let's end with the first edition. Let's end with the first edition because I wanna get through this box of books over here. Books that I do not have space for. So of course we have the first edition of Pet Cemetery. I know that by heart. First paperback edition, Dolores Claiborne. This is the version that I've read numerous times. I'm looking for the publication date for this. First Signet Printing. So it's a first edition paperback, 1993. I have two versions of this. So I have the first edition that is just completely just worn out and written all over. I got this one and then I have the movie tie-in cover. It's both different seasons. You bought your first one when you were 14? Cool. I can't remember what my first buy was. I think it might've been the Wastelands, but the first one I read was Dolores Claiborne when I was 13. This reissue of Kujo, it was Christine that you bought. This one's covered in dust. You can tell I've never read this one. Not this copy. All right, so where's the print date? Come on, stop hiding it. 1980, no, that ain't right. 1982 is when the book came out.  Anyways, I can't find a date for this. I can only find a date when it came out originally. Speaking of which, Ron Christine, baby. I know this is the first edition paperback as well because it has the same cover as the hardcover. And this is in really good condition for how old it is. We have this one also to remind myself to count later. I have the black one with the blood dripping, but it's inside. Yours is all covered in tape. This is Salem's lot, by the way.  Showing it off, it wouldn't show up on camera anyways. But if you want me to go get it, I'll go get it. It's up to you. Four past midnight. This is a terrible cover. I don't like any of the covers that look like this. No idea what your first purchase was. Check them out from the library. This is the version of Dreamcatcher that I read. I haven't read it in almost a decade now, but I bought this brand new and it's worn out. I've read it three times. Actually four because I listened to the audio book once. Beaboo's in the chat. The covers that look like that I am fond of because those were the covers of the books you read in high school, cool. I just, I just, you know, there's other, there's better covers than those. And of course it's just my opinion, but Skeleton crew. God, this one's just as hell. 1986, it is, this is the 32nd printing. 32nd, 32nd printing. That's nuts. We have the Tommy Knockers. I really like this cover, by the way. I really like this cover. The glowing green, the house. I love this cover, even if I don't like what's inside it. Well, let me stop lying. There's only a third of this book I don't like and it's the last third of it. But anyway, here we go. One of my favorite, favorite Stephen King covers. At first I had no idea what it was. It looked like a dragon. And the first time that I saw it, I thought it was a fantasy novel. But it's two birds, the dark half. I loved it, dust. It's so pretty. I never reread that. This one? How about that one? Bag of boners. Yeah, that dark half cover is nice. And this is just the, it's gotta be a first edition because it ties into the original hard cover. This is a first edition too because it's the same as the first edition. It may not be a first printing, but it's the first edition. Tommy Knockers? Yeah, I really like that cover. The dark half movie is great. George Romero, it's one of his better films. Needful Thongs. Another first edition. You can tell once again, same cover. I have numerous copies of this book, but here's one of them, The Shining. This is the second to last reissue they did. All right, Nettles, have a good night. All right, and then of course, I guess I was collecting these covers at one point in time. I don't know why, because I don't like any of them, but this is Carrie, first edition fire starter. The only difference between this and the first edition is this is black and the first edition is the, the first edition hard cover is white, but it's the same artwork. I actually prefer this one, but I understand why they went with white because the white is very different from the rest of his covers up to that point anyways. Kind of looks like a duck. It does look like a duck, doesn't it? You've got the white edition, so do I. It's over here. And then I have these that are kind of a tie-in. Now, I got more, hang on, I got more King stuff to do before I show off these other ones. Okay, Arts and Atlantis movie tie-in cover. It's the only copy, a paperback copy of this book that I own. With Anthony Hopkins is dead rod again. The Miha Puna Tangodan. I think I might actually prefer this cover to the hard cover. We'll talk about it when we get there. You still have in red, Arts and Atlantis. It's a good mosaic novel. It's basically just a novella collection that all ties together. Roadwork, I sure hope so. Another version of Christine. Boy, these covers were awful. I don't know who redid these. Let's look up who designed these covers. This is a 31st printing. Wow, it's so bad. They didn't even give anybody the... They didn't give anybody... It is a tire track. Yeah, it's supposed to be a tire track with a little skull on it. Man, I don't know. It is what it is. It's Christine. Nightmares and the dream scoppies. Of course, the first edition hard cover is so much better.  Looks like a spine with a skull. I like this. Don't get me wrong, but I do prefer the first edition hard cover. And then this is the only odd one out. I don't have the rest of this collection. This is the Wastelands. It's cool and all, but yeah, the hard cover reissue is my favorite. First edition, the Dead Zone. Once again, because it has the same cover. It's just less colorful. And we have Miserloo. February, cross the mercy. What is that on the Dead Zone? It's a, I believe it's a wheel of fate with a face on it. The wheel of fate is at the beginning of the book. I don't want to spoil anything. And then it's a creepy face that's supposed to be Johnny Smith or maybe the George, whatever the president's name or the guy that's running for president. Greg Stiltson? What am I to add? And then these two are just one ops. One of them I have in hard cover and the other one I don't because it didn't come out in hard cover from the Borderlands. And this one has, what is it? The stationary bike? Yeah, stationary bike, which was collected in Bizarre Bad Dreams, I think? Greg Stiltson, yes. And then the skin trade, which has what, Dan Simmons, Stephen King and George R.R. Martin. It has the reploids, sneakers and dedication in it. You never heard of this one, Ron? That's cool. Yeah. The reploids of Bizarre Unknown Comic dares to preempt Johnny Carson. Sneakers, who or what occupies the world's first and only haunted toilet stall? Reminds me of, what's the one about the porta potty from Just After Sunset with the motherfucker? Stationary bike was Just After Sunset? Yeah. I knew it was one of the newer ones. Dedication, some mothers will do anything for their sons. A very tight place. Thank you, skinny puppy. Appreciate you. I always forget, I always want to call it the motherfucker. That story is hilarious. And in the intro, he says, I want to instill dread and scare you, but I am not opposed to just grossing you out. Anyway, that's that one. Because I already have a video showing off my it collection, I'm going to skip the it collection, okay?  You've seen them or you will see them. All you have to do is go check out the redux edition of it. One moment, please. I must roll another table towards y'all. Okay. I was collecting a certain version of Stephen King's books until they stopped printing them. So that's what these are. And also there's some gifts in here. Needful things. I was trying to collect all these, but they stopped printing them before I could. They were expensive. They were $10 a piece and I couldn't find them on sale. Pet, cemeterium. Oh, oh, thank you. Thank you, Beaver. Thank you, Hailey. Smooth. Well, no, let's get to that in a minute. Let me show off the rest of these. Revival ration. This is a pretty sick cover. I'm not going to lie. It's a really good cover. And then we have the Good Wolf Wolf Turn Bad Wolf Wolf. That's a copy you read. It would be an amazing poster. You're right. I understood, Jake. Good pup, pup, Turn Bad, pup, pup. All right, and then these are just randoms. We have sale. This is a terrible cover, terrible Photoshop. Absolutely terrible. Your number is up. They would be great on t-shirts. You're right, Jimmy. Yeah, no, I wouldn't say so. Solvents, that's a really bad place to start with Stephen King. But if you like the writing, he doesn't write any different in that one than he does in his other books. But it's not a good example of his style. And then we have, yeah, you're right. Okay, so stationary bike and a very tight place are in just after sunset. Yeah, Solvents. Just enjoy it. Just know that the closest, after you're done with the Mercedes trilogy, there's three books. Mr. Mercedes, Finder's Keepers and End of Watch. There's also the outsider with one of the same characters from that. And there's also If It Bleeds that ties into it. And then also there's a sixth book with one of the same characters coming out this September called Holly. Just after sunset. Buyakasha. Little known fact, in the old theory videos, the original series, this hardcover would float around to different places and no one ever noticed. In the background, it would float around and no one ever noticed except for one person. Then we have Blaze. Holly is gonna turn, If It Bleeds ties into it. We don't know what Holly's gonna be about yet. I know it's gonna happen during the pandemic. I'm looking forward to Holly too. It's my favorite Stephen King character. And then we have, of course, the person who is not here today that breaks my heart. Landon sent me this as a gag gift. It's the massive trade. This is the difference. This is a trade paperback. This is a mass market paperback. Look at the size difference. It is pretty. It is goddamn pretty. Very, very pretty. All right, y'all ready to get started on the first editions? Well, too bad, because I'm gonna take a break. And when I come back, we're gonna get started, but we're already an hour and a half and I'm stuck in this chair. So I have to, did I like the movie? I liked Morgan Freeman's eyebrows. That's all I'll say on that. I am a heathen for reading up. No, no, you're not.  Don't ever think that. Read on Kindle. Read on, read audiobooks. Listen to audiobooks. Whatever you want to say, it's still reading because someone is still reading to you.  Read books.  I don't care, just read. Read, read. Okay, I will. I will, Hailey. I'm gonna go. I'll be back. Give me five at the most 10 minutes, okay? I just gotta get up and walk around a bit because my back gets swollen. Yeah, the best part, before I go, the best part about reading on Kindle is you don't have to buy expensive $40 large print editions if your eyesight isn't great. You can just increase the size of the words to whatever you want to. It's brilliant. Anyways, I shouldn't be bending over. That's what she said. My money don't jiggle, jiggle. It folds. I like the way you wiggle, wiggle. Oh, show. It is still hot outside in case anybody was wondering. But I'm back. My sack. Oh, Lord, it hurts like a... Whatever. Anyways, the Lecter one looks cool. Oh, yeah, Lecter over here. We got 11, we got the Demogorgon that won't stand up on its own. All these jokers. All this stuff. So anyways, we're getting into French edition of Rage. I forgot I have some more paperbacks over here I haven't shown. My buddy, Zoop, sent me this. Raging hormones, raging hormones. We have Zastan. This is the 800 page version, so the cut edition. And this is another version. That's the 800 cut version. I also have the first edition. I'll show that in a second. This is a wild cover. Look at that. It almost looks like Salem's Lotter or something, but anyways, Lee and Cree. That's great. We have the Bootleg first edition of Rage. Thanks again to Tony for this one. Have you read all versions? I have read... You talking about the stand? Yes, I've read both of them. I only prefer the uncut version because the kid isn't in the cut version. And now on to the complete editions of the Bachman books. We have this paperback. This one, all these have Rage in them. I do not own a single copy of the Bachman books without Rage because I consider them incomplete. I am not paying full price for an incomplete set of books. I believe this is a UK first edition. Yeah, that last one of the Bachman books is really pretty with the colors and everything. Your first king was the Bachman books? That's cool. There's a lot of people in here from the UK. Hailey, Jimmy Brown, I'm sure there's more. Then we have the hardcover American first edition. Very plain, it's whatever. It is what it is. They wanted to be cheap. New American library being what it is. And then this one, oh no. No, we have a catastrophe. Hang on, hang on. The fog machine leaked and got on my stool that I keep it on. I'm gonna have to clean these up as soon as I get done.  No, ah, what did I do? Sorry, we are having technical difficulties at the moment. Anyways, then this one, this is the first version I had and the only version I had for the longest time until my friend Cammie sent me this one. And then I finally found a first edition at a yard set.  Where's Viking, by the way? Where is Viking? I'm actually cold tonight. I've got bed socks on.  It has the autumn leaves scent in it.  Nevermind, nevermind. And then let's get these out of the way since they're technically first editions. Button box. We can, Jimmy, yeah. It's campfire stories, so definitely. Got, I just wanna throw this one. Magic Feather, I wouldn't have these if someone hadn't sent them to me. Dick Gismarck. And the last one, Final Task, whatever. And even the cover art is lazy. It's just, whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever. Remember, remember the treasonous plot to steal the dark tower from an author who's hot. Okay, let's get on with the first editions. The first editions, the first one is good. The second one is absolute trash. I gave the first one five stars, the second one one star, because Stephen King didn't help him write it. And I haven't been able to convince myself to go back in and read Final Task for the first time. Even though King is a part of that one, from what I understand is he didn't have much to do with it at all. He just gave Gismarck some notes, but that could all be speculation. I don't know for sure, but I have heard nothing but bad things about it. And Gwendi goes to space. What? Whatever, all right. The first editions of the Green Mile are as follows. The two dead girls, these are chat books. They were only $3 a piece when they came out. Part two, The Mouse on the Mile. These are the oldest Stephen King books I bought brand new. They're the only ones that survived the second flood. Well, the first one was a hurricane, the second one was a flood. Volume three, Coffee's Hands. Volume four, The Bad Death of Edward Delacroix. And that last part was $4. I was upset they, it's because it's longer. It was literally the cost of printing because all of these are like 100 pages. Yeah, they're about 90 pages long. And then we have Night Journey, Volume five. And then we have Coffee on the Mile, which was $3.99 as Skinny Puppy said, but that's because it was a little bit longer. It was 140 pages. That's why it was a little bit more because they had to pay for the extra paper. So it's not just because they jacked it up just to make more money. Didn't he write it off, write it as a periodical to test himself sort of? What happened was is someone said, hey, why don't you write a serial and we'll produce chat books for it? So he was like, okay, let's see if I can do this. And he wrote them, he didn't write it all at one time. He wrote one, it came out. He wrote the next one, it came out. So as quickly as they came out, he was writing them that quickly, but of course they're only 90 pages long. So, but it wasn't really a challenge as much as someone gave him the idea to do it like an old time, almost radio serial. So that's the story behind that one. I guess I'm gonna do another giveaway for later. I can't seem to get rid of these extra copies. Anyways, it's because I haven't sent out the prizes yet. There's also these two, but I've shown these two off recently. Hey, Mike, how you doing, brother? My nose. All right, oh, one more. One more offshoot, Shining in the Dark. And then we can get to the first editions. But yes, I was still glad to buy them all in chat books and then the full novel version. One of my favorite King novels, that's awesome, cool. All right, starting way back here with a book club edition of Carrie because like I said, my first verse is in a lock box because I paid way too much.  That's why I don't like talking about how much I paid for it. But this is a book club edition. This is not a first edition whatsoever. Was wondering if you were going to bring the real thing home for the, no, they don't leave. Did you see my short where the tree fell? I'm glad I didn't because had it been a couple feet this way, it would have tore this wall down. If not, go look on my, I had a tree fall almost destroyed the shed. Do you regret it or still, hang on, I can't, ooh, Art Deco. Do you regret it or still not too bad?  Not really because I have it.  It is an immaculate, beautiful book, but I paid two, I'm not going to tell you exactly how much I paid, but I paid $2,000 over market value for it, over market value for it. And this was in 2008. Been out of town, I'll have to check that out. Yeah, it was scary because we heard it. Well, no, what happened was is something woke us up in the middle of the night about 3 a.m. And then we were all in the house. It was storming and we thought it was just a storm that woke us up. It was torrential rain for like three hours.  And he comes hot, dad, dad. So I come outside and I look and there's this massive tree down on our property. It barely missed, it fell between two sheds, between two sheds and missed one of our cars. It was anyways. But yeah, first edition, but it's a book club edition, but this is what it looks like. This is what Carrie originally looked like. So yeah, whatever. All right, now we get into the real reels. The first edition, it's got cellophane on it, but so you're gonna get hella wicked glare. The first edition of Zee Salem's Lots, is so pretty, is so pretty. It's the Decodes of the Edges. We have Zee Van with the R74 code, Zee Shining. I think it's R74, I can't remember what it's called. It's on like page four or something. I can't remember. This too has the Decodes of the Edges. That boy's face, yeah. That's the only thing that even remotely says that this is a horror novel. Even remotely because look at the cute little, it looks like a, what is it, a shitsu? It's supposed to be a lion. It's supposed to be the hedge animals, the topiary animals, but it just looks like a big doggo after he saw the twins. Oddly enough, the twins are not in this book. Great, I was wrong in my Shining connection thing. Grady didn't have twins in the book. Grady only had twins in the movie. He had daughters and they were around the same age. Anyways, I gotta be real ginger with this one because this one's falling apart. The Stan, a novel by the author of The Shining. Look at it, it's so falling apart, man. Ah, stop it. But look at, look at, look at, look, look at my, look at what they did to my boy. Look what the ambassadors did to my boy. It's all, you can see right through it. Oh, Lord, I can see y'all. Oh, Lord Jesus. We have The Knocked Shift, poor book, right? No, it's a first edition. Night Shaft. Night Shaft, night Shaft, give me your answer, true. This, okay, I do have a confession. This is not the original cover. I printed this out. I know the, well, Mike, they're all garbage. They're all garbage. Go look it up because they used the same printer for the BCEs as they did the first editions. They're also the same size. They reissued the first, they reissued all the way up until, let's see here, I think it was Night Shift. They reissued in like 1990 or 1999. They reissued them in standard hardcover, but the original ones were the same size. They just changed the stuff on the dust jacket. They took the price code off of it and they put down on the bottom, they put book club edition, but they're the same size, same everything, same glue, same trash, all that stuff. I'm not either, I'm not either Mike because they look terrible on the shelf. I don't know if you can see the size difference, but Carrie comes way up here and the rest of them stop right here. So, yeah. Anyways, I showed you Night Shift. This is a newly printed cover because the first edition I found didn't have a cover. Same with this one, the Dead Zone. You can see it better, Hailey. You can see the size difference on my shelf. You can see the picture better here, Hailey. If you're still here, I think you are. Yeah, it's a Wheel of Fate. Like I said, this one's more colorful. I had to have this dust jacket printed also. And now we are getting to the books that have not been altered whatsoever, even though the shining, the St. Ones Lot, the shining, the stand are all original, everything too. But everything from here on out is original. You're gonna be able to tell, trust me.  Fire starter. You didn't even see where I took the... There was a price tag on it that said, what, $13.99? Yeah, it's $13.95 is the original price, but it had the sticker on it from when it was brand new from Walden Books. But it had been on there so long that it damaged, I am really good at removing stickers. It's my zen, it's how I kind of wear down, I decompress by removing stickers. This is completely smooth. There's no problem with it whatsoever. It doesn't feel like there was a sticker there. There's no ripping, but the sticker became part of the cover.  Yes, yes, yes. I really like this cover. I'm sitting here, I'm thinking, you know how I said I like the black paperback version better? I don't, I don't think so. I think I prefer this, what do you guys think? You guys prefer this one or the black paperback that I held up earlier? I think I like this one, the eyes pop much better, which is odd because it's white. But you can see her nose better. You can see her mouth. You like the black? Did you try? Yes, I use GooGun. I even have a little special scraper, all that stuff. Next up, we have Zikujo. You like the white, skinny? Yeah, you can see the flames better. You can see everything, this is so good. It almost looks 3D, doesn't it? And this is from way back in the way back. This is like 84, man. Doesn't it look 3D? Man, that's hot. It doesn't look, it looks better on the camera than it does. Oh, it does, it looks better on the camera than it does in real life. But we got Furry King back here. Yeah, it does look amazing. I never actually like really paid attention to the first edition. This one breaks my heart. I paid $40 for a first edition of this. This is one of the most expensive, other than the limited editions. This is one of the most expensive ones, other than Keri, first editions that I bought. Because I couldn't find one with a dust jacket. And when I got it, they wrapped it in brown paper. So when I cut it open, it cut the spine. Cut all the way down here. Yeah, no, it was right.  Not the spine, right? Exactly. Stephen King, Jolyne Collarolkin, Delores Claiborne and one related to Delores Claiborne and the other hard-boiled books, all of his happen in the same earth. A lot of his books happen in the same earth. Next up, we have the first of the Christians. I mean, I'm trying to understand why you're saying this because Haven is from Tommy Knockers. And that ties in, that ties in to, I mean, I'm wondering why you're bringing, anyways, let's continue on. I'm so confused because there's a lot of stuff that ties those books together, along with the rest of his stuff. It's not just the hard case crime books that tie together. Yeah, I understand he states there are more multipliers. It's kind of my thing. Anyways, so this one, once again, sorry for the glare, but it's got plastic on it. And this one, I couldn't find it any better than this. I still put the plastic on it because otherwise, it's in fantastic, fantastic. This is back before, I could have showed that on the other stuff. This is back before ISBNs, or right when they started doing ISBNs, so you'd have to punch the code in. See, there was no USC, no. The codes, the bar codes, and before the bar codes, it's not before ISBNs.  But yeah, you can see, they would have to, when you went to Walden books or something, it was kind of cool because they would open it up and they, hmm, anyways. I really like this book, the way it looks.  I don't know who kept this, but obviously, look at the color difference on the spine. I guess whoever had this before me left it in the sun or something because the rest of it's not faded. Yeah, sun damage, right? Yours is worse. Your first of it has the same problem.  We were talking about that earlier, but yeah, anyways. So, look at how old she is, bruh. Look at that dope. It's got a stamp on it. I don't know what the stamp is from because this isn't a library edition, but ooh, the decoed edges. I didn't even realize this one. I've never read this one, this copy. You know I've read Pet Sematary. I've never read this copy, and I didn't realize that, because it's a first first, I try not to touch these. And you can tell this is where I stopped caring about the older covers because the old stuff really started deteriorating quickly. This one isn't in plastic. But this is Skeleton Crew. It's got, damn it. No, stop it. Anyways, I thought you stopped caring-y, Skeleton Crew. Once again, no barcode, but the ISBN down here. I don't know why someone cut that off. I think it was supposed to be destroyed, but you can see the beginning of the ISBN on it. Do you know that Stephen King was a fan and played, what, D&D in the 70s to 90s? King played D&D? Okay, I mean, I believe you. All right, just cause this is the one with the reprinted cover, so I lied. This is the one with the reprinted cover. And then I have the one that's in worse condition. If you guys remember the It Redux video, I showed off both, but this is the one that I keep on my shelf over here with the collection because it looks so much better. It's a first edition that I had the dust jacket replaced because it was literally falling apart. So we have the eyes of the drag on. Will it be good to read Holly after the Hodge's trilogy? I would definitely read Outsider and If It Bleeds before Holly. I would read the entire series. I would read the Hodge's series in completion and then read Outsider, If It Bleeds, then Holly because I'm sure Holly is going to spoil all the rest of those books. Every book after Mr. Mercedes spoils what happens in the book before it. Read all of King's books, plus all of, that's what I tell everybody. Just read from Carrie all the way up to Holly and you'll be fine. I don't know why this one's in such good condition. Misery, I mean, it's a first. You see, it's a first. It wasn't about to be, this isn't really good. I haven't taken these books off the shelf since I moved them last time.  Yeah, you're right, Mike. This is about the time when they printed so many of them but this is clean, clean. Like I have books after this one that are nowhere near as nice as this. Let me make sure it's a first first. It might not be a first first. Some of these are not first first. All of them are first edition stuff. Was this before? Yeah, this is before they started the number lines. Anyways, I've always liked the shadow of her with the axe. Yeah, I already did the, I did the Dark Tower books right at the, close to the beginning. There might be a summary already. I haven't looked at it and I haven't done a video like I normally do with King stuff because first off I wasn't doing videos back then when it was announced. Anyways, I got a lot more to go and I'm still trucking through this. Yeah, I agree, it is a cool cover. All right, here we go. This thing is an absolutely ravaged condition. And this came out after misery. I have a card in here. Oh, Nick, Nick's not in here but I don't know why this is in here. That's why it was in here, sitting on my desk. So guard takes a walk is where I theorize that he came back from rehab.  And the reason why I think that is because he said something in an interview about Tabitha saying he needed to go for a walk and not come back until he was better. And this one starts, Gardner took Annie's device and went for a walk. He went in fact all the way out to the ship in the woods. I just feel like, I feel like that's it. I feel like, I really do like your videos and they do explain the connections between all the books and the multiverse better than other videos. I was trying to explain them. Chris, I don't, Christopher, I'm not sure if we, if I'm missing something here, but what I'm saying is I don't understand the importance of bringing those other books up and not bringing up like the Tommy knockers. You know what I mean? Because the hard case crime books are not just, and I know you mentioned Dolores Claiborne, but you didn't mention Tommy knockers and you didn't mention a bunch of other stuff that ties in. So I was wondering why you were focusing on just those books. If that makes sense, I hope it does. That's all I was saying. I just didn't understand where you were going with that. Yeah, I get that you, I appreciate it. I do, but I was just wondering what made you bring that up. I like, you like the hard case crime books? Of course you do. You have no class. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I like later and I love Joyland. I love both of them. I just don't like Colorado Kid. Four past midnight. And this is the first one. We know this is the first one with a barcode. The first one with a barcode. This is clean as hell too, honestly. This is clean. I like this one. Yeah, four past midnight. I would agree with that, Mike, but I could have ended it much, much better. You could have just said, he could have tied it into Tommy knockers with having them like going out into the field or whatever and finding the Finney that somehow this dude traveled from Colorado to Maine in three to five hours. That would have been cool finding the Finney that the Tommy knockers ship came through. There was so much he could have done, but anyways, that's four past midnight. All right, here she is, boys and girls. The chonkiest chonker to ever chunk, the stan. He wanted to keep it mundane. Yeah, because why? Hard case crime doesn't pay as much as Scribner and Viking and Doubleday do. This is a weapon. This is a kitten squisher. This joker's like 1200 pages, the circle closes. 1,153 pages. Doubleday refused, they didn't edit 150,000 words out of it because they didn't like the content that was in there. They edited it out because they literally could not print this back in 1970, whatever, 79. This absolutely massive chonker. Can you imagine how big this is gonna be?  I've got an 1800 Bible. Oh yeah, any Bible from that time is gonna be, yeah. Mike's almost all the multiverses Tommy knockers and it happens. Once again, Christopher, I don't know if I'm missing some of your comments or what, but from my point of view, what you just said doesn't make any sense. I'm not trying to be mean, I am confused. I'm about to have some water. I'm trying to figure out what Christopher is talking about because I don't like ignoring people, but Mike's almost all the multiverses Tommy knockers and it happens. I'm thinking you're talking about the book yet. Mike's almost all the, I'm gonna continue on and wait to see if Christopher has anything else to say. Hey, of course, solvent. I try to do that with everybody, but I'm just, I'm confused with Christopher at the moment. Hopefully we can clear this up. Zoop, I only use the turkey call bottles when I stream. All right, here we go. I feel like this is the most underrated Stephen King book. What do y'all think? The dark half. And I think this is supposed to be, I know it's supposed to be a skull, but is it supposed to be an X-ray of a skull because of the stuff? Yes, the book it and Tommy knockers and Mike's is a, oh, a mod in the stream. I'm still, okay. So you're talking about, so you're talking to Mike, you're not talking to me. Okay, anyways. So dark half, boom, Shaka Laka, got that sexy bar coat. He looks like a straight pimp in this one. I would hop on King in this picture. This King I would hop on, like not many of the other ones, but this King, best King.  He looking right into my gonads, but he's like, come over here, big sexy. That's a sexy man's. That's a sexy man's. Stevie Queen, I think. Boy, Mike, you almost got banned because, all right, Needful Things. And I love this. This is like Friday the 13th, the final chapter, the last Castle Rock story. And then he goes on to do Elevation and the Gwendi books. And I hate it when people do that. It's like, it's ending. It's ending. And then he just keeps going. The shadow's good, isn't it, Haley? Yeah. It got the original sticker on it. 24.95. Never mind. No, it was on sale for 17.97 at Gottwals. I don't know where Gottwals was because I didn't buy this when it first came out. It is the first though.  I don't want to take it off. What happens if this is old? Looking right into your gonads, oh, Lord. All right, we got another sun damaged one. Not this, of course. I mean, it's damaged, but look at what they did to my spine. Look at how worn out it is. Look at that. That ain't the same man. That is not the same man. That isn't the same man. The tommy knockers stole this man's right here. This man's over here is not this man's. It's like Clark Kent with the, anyways. Let me stop. Anyways, take it off. Gerald's game. It's got a stain on it. I can't get off with Gugan. I can't get off with alcohol, anything. Oh, this is underrated too, but I would say that the dark half more so because this film adaptation is fantastic. The dark half got relatively poor reviews and didn't make that much money. Gerald's stain. Okay. All right, next up. For the longest time, even when I was younger, I thought this was like, she had a corona. For some other reason, it slipped my mind that there's an eclipse in the book, but like, you know, Mother Mary kind of deal. And this is an absolutely iconic scene from the movie too. When the eclipse is behind her and she's looking down into the well, so good. I still remember the sense of discovery when I opened this book up and started reading. I was like, what is this? Look at him. Look at Chunky King. Look at Chunky King. He doesn't look anywhere near as good as he did on the back of the dark half. Nowhere near as good with the deco, with the decoed edges, with the decoed edges. Ooh, baby. No, no, stop, stop. Stop, that's for the only fans. That's for the only fans. Move along, E, move along. Nightmares and dreamscapes. Such a cool cover. The Scarecrow. What is it, the Castle Rockets? Yeah, Castle Rock Rockets. This one has a sticker too. I did not try to take that off. When I start, I don't stop until they're gone. Amazes me how many people on Amazon reviews don't know what decoed edges are, or they think they're cheap. They're not cheap. There's a mark on the page block. Oh my God. We still got up. Why does man write so many books? Why have I, why? You're not one for short stories, but you're trying to get through them. I got you. I love decoed edges, man. I understand why some people don't because it's hard to flip through it, but I don't know. It gives it a sense of class. Here we go. Insomnia, which is probably the most boring Stephen King cover of all time. It's even worse than the Bachman books. I mean, there's not a single, what did they pay for this dust jacket, like 50 cents? I love the short stories too, Christopher. Do you have the other? No, I don't. I can't find it, the illustrated one. I can't find it. The one that inverts the red and the white. Yeah. You love that cover? No, I haven't been able to find it. So no, I haven't. Unfortunately, I want it. Also, because we're here, we gotta show this off. This is somnils, which is the Swedish version of insomnia. You love it simply. I mean, I can dig it. Don't get me wrong.  That is not the same man on the back of the dark half. The king on the back of the dark half fucks. He fucks.  That's what he looks like. I also gotta show this. This thing is literally about to fall apart. Literally about to fall apart. Donsmakal. Now look at this absolute wildebeest. He looked like he about to, he about to steal your grandpappy. That is a bear. Exactly. That is a bear. Exactly, Jake. Yes. I almost called you Janka. Nick Bra. Macabre. Macabre. Macabre. Is that how you pronounce it? No, it's not relevant nowadays. It was barely relevant when it came out. It is an absolute atrocious condition. Another first, I mean, literally the pages are, ah fuck, yeah, this is going back. It's going back. And because I already should have shown it off, the Tadassmon with Rip Peterstrop. Well, no, I pronounced it correctly. I don't wanna pronounce it Macabre. That sounds fake. You know, the funny part about it, Mike, is there was a video that I pronounced it on Stunt's Macabre and all the comments section is, dude, why did you pronounce it that way? So many people have mispronounced it. I don't know which one's real. You go over to YouTube's and the Google's and the Google's got both versions. I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just saying. That's the Tadassmon's. Oh, I didn't even realize it was the same exact cover on the back. The interesting thing is that the international covers books gives more context to the story in the cover. I'd agree with that. I would agree with that. Macabre is right. McCabe, whatever. And Hellfire Club. I have a Hellfire Club t-shirt. Anyways, we'll get to, I'll show up Black House when we get to that section. This chunky boy. Oh, you know how much I love the cover. I love the cover. It is so good. And the wood grain on the spine. Oh, it's so good. And then the cover of the regulators through the window. Oh, it's so good. So good. Thematically, artistically. So good. So good. Whoever did this cover should have done all of them. Dance McGraw. All right, we're out of order here, but because I had this one up here with the other ones just to fill in space. The girl who, yeah, I definitely liked the paperback version more than I liked this one. The girl who loved Tom Gordon. Whoo, we had two minutes, 13 seconds, and we're barely halfway through the regulators. Now and up, a novel. Okay, next shelf. We still got one whole shelf and then some stragglers. I gotta get two of these out. And I have a buyer beware here in a second. First edition, the 20th anniversary. Anyways, it's an anniversary one. Bag of Bones is amazing, but do not buy this version. It has a six page interview at the end and that's the only new content. And they're charging the same price as the first edition. Don't get the one with the blue around it. If you can go for the first edition, get this one. That was the book sliding and not my butt. Hearts in Atlantis, which is a great cover, but I hate the font. Sure, hook off, Mike. So good. I like this a lot. This one's in rough shape too. Not because I've read it so many times. I haven't touched this one other than moving it around my office, but I did not buy this new. It was at a time in my life when I wasn't reading Stephen King anymore. Because remember, the first time I read Bag of Bones, I hated it. You've always loved this cover? I like this cover. I do. I don't like what's inside of it, but I do like the cover. Oh, this is an old library copy because I couldn't get the... Once again, there's nothing sticky here, but you can see the discoloration from the sticker that was on it. Yeah, it was a library edition. It's the first edition, but someone had it at the library. As my buddy Pierce calls it from a spewfuck8. And this one is very unique because as you will see, the UPC code, the barcode's up here.  It's a great cover. Don't get me wrong. It's a very pretty cover. Everything's eventual, which is an amazing wraparound cover. It's a whole dinner scene. I love this cover. I love every bit of this cover. My least favorite collection of his. And yes, even though it has a dark tower story in it, my least favorite collection. And here comes the first book I bought in hardcover after the flood. No, after we lost my mother's collection that I was supposed to get. This is a gorgeous cover, and it's another kind of wraparound up to this point anyways. I do love how it's the opening of the book that showcased just like it.  He looks like a horror movie villain. Look at his eyes. Oh, it's all those painkillers. No, he said he didn't use painkillers after he got out of the hospital after his accident. But that is the face of a man who very, very shortly ago got hit by a van. And those might even be ER doors. I don't know, Kevin Bacon King. Yeah, he is a horror movie villain for writing cell. I'll agree with that. And then another one of King's boring things. Boring covers just after sunset. It's another one with the text on the back too. I really, really like this collection. I really like it. Wax sculpture King. Sorry, I'm not reading every comment, but I'm trying to get through this because we're already at two and a half hours. I knew this was gonna take forever. Lee C. Story, which has a very, very cool design and I'll show it off in a second because you can't show off this book without opening it up.  Oh, it's so pretty. Oh my God, so good. Yeah, I do like that he has a batch of terrible books too. I just don't like the books.  You know what I mean? Like, he's not this perfect author. And besides, even his worst book, Billy Summers or Elevation, there are people who love those books. I had a couple of people comment on my review that said that Billy Summers, I couldn't even say with a straight face, that Billy Summers is the best Stephen King book. Like the best. I'm like, how many Stephen King's books have you read? Just that one? What the, are you talking about? All right, gotta go. Dinner has arrived. All right, Mike, talk to you later. Email me sometime, jackass. You don't talk to me no more and I don't like it. Never since I left Twitter. I don't see you. Jackass? Anyways, Duma Key, which is another gorgeous wraparound cover. Oh, it's so sexy. Top five covers for me. So good, man. So good. I saw someone the other day review Dreamcatcher and love it. So yeah, it happens. Well, Landon, that's one of his favorite Stephen King books as Dreamcatcher. They are easier audiobooks. Yeah, I would say not a lot. Let me take that back. I would say that over half of King's books, all of them, including all the short story collections, all the novella collections, all the nonfiction, everything he's ever published, I would say the vast majority are actually better on audiobook, just for the performances that they're able to do. Speaking of great audiobooks, under the dome. What is up, Lee? How you doing, brother? I love the texture difference. Can you guys see the difference of where the dome is versus where the dome isn't? You can't really tell it here, but you can really tell it on the back that there is a texture difference. It's so cool. Now, here's a tricksy hobbits. At first, I thought this was the most boring Stephen King cover. This didn't make any sense. Hey, King, how you doing? What does that reference? Anybody know? Take a good, hard look at it. I'll show off the rest of it. Do you know why the nine's important, Jake? Do you know what the nine represents? It was very clever, I thought. And it has nothing to do with 19, but do you know what the nine represents? It's his ninth collection, because seven, eight, nine. That's all you get for that one, Zoop. Yeah, it's the number nine because it's his ninth collection. I thought that was very clever, the way they snuck it in, even though I'm not a huge fan of the cover, it is very clever how they snuck that in. And then we got another number, 11, 22, 63. I really like this Merry Christmas dad. I love you. Was it Lars Christmas 2011? I thought it looked like a key when I was trying to see it. Now, while I'm not a huge fan of this book, the middle of the book, I love the opening, love the ending. I am super impressed by the production quality of this book because this is nice and glossy and this is matte. But then when you come up here, see if I can get it to shine. This is glossy and this is matte because it's been ripped so cool. I love little stuff like this. I love stuff like this. Absolutely gorgeous, I agree with you, Lee. Well, you just name hopping all over the place. You're worse than Nick. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Doctor Sleep, a novel. Rose the Hat looking like she about to eat somebody, daddy. For no reason, that's the only book my mom has on her coffee table and no one in my family has read it. That's interesting. Red rum, red rum. Your coffee doesn't have a dust jacket, gotcha. The dairy it reference was well done in the book. I think so too. I would agree with that. I like how Richie and Bev weren't just shoehorned in. It was like a very natural thing that happened because he was in dairy around the time that they were kids. Cool. Or teens, sorry, older teens. Oh, I love the rainbow oil effect of this cover but otherwise I don't like it guys. I mean, it's cool but it looks like a generic thriller and this book, Rose the Hat does something to you. Yeah, I'm sure. She's a manager for sure. Oh, that's so gorgeous. It's like the Aurora Borealis kind of lightning pops. It does pop but it just looks so basic. You know what, it looks like a Dean Coombs book. That's what it looks like and that's why I don't like this cover. Yeah, anyways, now we get into some of his coolest covers, I think. It does, yeah, it totally looks like a Coombs. Oh, look at this, look, look at this. Look at the difference.  The only problem with this cover is that it makes it look like a collection of horror stories when it isn't at all. It's more literary fiction. The Bazaar of Bad Dreams and that's just cool. That's gorgeous. Little Grim Reaper standing out in the snow. Here we go. One of the biggest disappointments because I was a huge fan of Owen, a huge fan. I've never even opened this version. I read the e-book and then I read the, then I listened to the audio book twice. This, I think, is one of Stephen King's most underrated covers. Yeah, he's done three. We're all in this together as his first collection. Then he did a double feature, which is absolutely fantastic and he most recently has the Curator, which is like a magical realism fantasy novel. We're almost done, guys, we're almost done. They stopped putting King on the back of the books. The Institutes. For me, this cover makes no sense. For me, this cover makes no sense. It's such a very small, the train is such a very small part of everything. And unless I'm wrong, he doesn't spend much time on the train either. He takes the boat out, spoilers, sorry. He takes the boat onto the train and then the train takes it. Oh, there's no telling. Probably because it was just a trendy thing to do back in the day, but now they put text on it. But wait, there's more. My friend Don sent me this from the UK. It's the Waterstones Edition with the gorgeous blue paper. Well, it's not blue paper, but yeah. Absolutely gorgeous edition. This is so much better and the reason I say that is because of the rippling water. All the kids there have mind powers, but also you see the reflection of the Institute in the water. So much better than the American version. So much better. Just like the UK version of Revival has the tent on it. So good man, so good. All right, we're almost done. Almost done. Here we go. I got a couple more loose ends to show you, but otherwise we're good. If it bleeds, so much better than Michael Jackson getting Thanos snap, the UK edition. And it took me so long to realize that that's a rat that the cat has for a nose. It is weird how we have different covers, but it fits our cultures. And I really like the copper coloring of this book for whatever reason. It's like he doesn't have any other books with the same copper coloring. Almost looks like a penny. Great, amazing cover. That's all I have to say about this book. Amazing cover. Okay, here's something. The first edition, I am not, let me, I'm not holding this open. I, in fact, I'm trying to squeeze it closed. I'm not holding this open. There's a problem with the first edition of fairy tale. There's no water damage or anything. It's completely dry. But for some odd reason, it's expanding at an exponential rate. Like I have to flex to close it. My favorite covers, it's two of them. The way that desperation and regulators fit together. I'll show it in a second. I don't know why it's like this, but this is a really cool cover. You have the well, you have the doggo, you have Charlie. I like the font. And then of course, these are all great covers in my opinion. I love how they're, what? I don't know, not holographic, but I love how they change. It's not humidity because none of my other books are like that, Ron. I'm trying to show you how they glint. And it's just the blood drops. I love how these books not only look like this, but they all fit aesthetically. It's so pleasing. And it's the same thing. Only some of it is shiny. If you haven't realized, that's my favorite part of some covers, is if it has both shiny and matte, glossy and matte. And this is just whack-a-doo crazy good. The negative fish, oh, so good. Speaking of good audiobooks, Christopher. Amazing audiobook. And the way he sings the fish song is so cool. And spoilers on the back. Look away now children, look away now. Spoilers on the back. Well, the title of the book is a spoiler if you know. Okay, so here's some random stuff that I just have. No, Bachman, Bachman. And then I'll show off how the regulators connects. Once again, no barcode, just the ISBN. Exactly the title is the spoiler, yeah. And then we have absolutely sexiness. The regulators, the wolf, everything on here happens in the book. And then through the burnt hole is the cover of desperation. Why? Because, nope. I always get them backward. And I did it again. There we go. Let me make sure I got the blocking right. Oh, God. I show that off every time. In fact, Jimmy picks on me. Or Zoop, Zoop picking on me too, good times to charm. There are people in here who haven't seen it. Stop being mean to me. The only first edition I do not own. Haven't been able to find one. I am still looking. Don't get mad at me. I said they were all first editions. This is actually a book club edition, but it's not a high priority. I love this book. Don't get me wrong, but it's not a high priority. No, I completely disagree, skinny puppy. But I mean, that's fine. I think Regulators is one of his best books just because it's so out there and wild. Blaze, blaze, blaze, blaze, blaze, blaze. Yeah, I'll give you that, Gabriel. Did you not know that those covers fit together like that, Ron? Did you? I'm honestly curious. Because that's why I always show it off. Sight, spasm. Give me a minute, a second. I shouldn't be bending like that. I shouldn't be moving like that at all. You didn't know either, Gabriel? Awesome. I love showing people. I've had the books for really, that's cool. It's cool. I love helping people discover things and that's why I will always show both books off at the same time. All right, before we get into some of the doubles, is that a footprint? Lord, I never noticed. I can't see that in person. I have never, I can barely see it.  Yeah, you're welcome, Ron. It's funny that as a king fan, I didn't realize Running Man was a king story until about 15 years ago. Dumb, hey, all we had was the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie and that does not feel like a Stephen King story. Yeah, he wrote it back in the, hang on, hang on. Give me a second. And I love how he tells people upfront that this is a Trump novel. Full disclosure, dear constant reader, this is a Trump novel, okay? I want you to know that while you've still got your sales slip and before you drip something like gravy or ice cream on it and thus make it difficult or impossible to return, it's a revised, yeah, stop there. It's a revised and updated Trump novel, but that doesn't change the basic fact. The Bachman name is on it because it's the last novel from 1966 to 1973, which was that gentleman's period of greatest productivity. Boom, you have your reasoning. Anyways, here's Black House. I love Blaze. I hated it the first time I read it, probably because I went into it knowing that it was a Trump novel. And I was like, he says, it's a cash grab. Bitch, he's been rich since 1980. He said if he was doing this for the money, he would have stopped writing about the time it came out.  I have this version of the Dark Tower, the big trade paperback with the illustrations. One of you beautiful bastards sent me this. Yeah, there won't be a third book. I kind of think that King wanted the Institute to be the third Jack Sawyer book. I still think this and that he took out all of Peter Straub's parts and just wrote his own book. I have my reasons for thinking that is because how many times green pops up in that book. Then I have this absolutely pointless version of a level of 2263. That's just a trade paperback version. Ghost story is my favorite Peter Straub, easy. I got the first edition right here.  There we go. I like this cover a little bit more than the first edition hardcover. This is under the dome. To me, it's prettier, it pops better, but it doesn't have the cool difference in textures. Oh, that book's so long. Another friend of mine sent me this. This is a library copy. So it's case bound, case wrapped version of the gunslinger. Come back here, Tabitha, hang on. This book is holding up Tabitha's books. No, I'm not getting that. It's on the floor now. I got two more, two more. I got the wastelands. I have a full set of these, but these are doubles. These are the ones that I can't find. They're in storage or in boxes or something, but I have this whole collection of plume paper bags. And I got one more. I got like four different copies of this. I got it somewhere, hang on, two hours later. Well, I couldn't find it, which is weird because it's my double. Anyways, but I did find, did you guys see, well, I can just show it up. This is how many copies. I just keep finding them and I keep buying them. What I was looking for was the purple edition of Wizarding Glass, but I did find this. Once again, I have a pristine, brand new copies of every single one of these, but I also have all these doubles because every time I see them, I have to buy them. And now I can't find the Wizarding Glass that I had sitting around somewhere. You don't have to take my word for it. Anyways, but yeah, so that's it guys. That's everything unless you wanna see the Tabatha and the Joe Hill and the Owen King. If you do, the illustration's worth, that's the best part of the plume versions.  So that's up to you guys. You let me know what you wanna do. You don't have the hardcover of Under the Dome. It should be relatively easy on eBay if you want it just for your collection because I have a lot of joke. You want me to do the whole library because earlier I got several votes for just Daddy, just Stephen King. But if you want me to, I'll take a break and I'll come back and we'll do the entire library.  No, I'm just saying all the King stuff. All right, Jake, take it easy. What am I currently reading? I'm almost done with our share of Knight and me and Shell are starting SA Cosby's, all the sinners bleed. I knew you were kidding, Zoop. Will you slice all the it and his family ones into the vid, oh, into the Vod? You want me to do that? You want me to put all that stuff in there? Cause I don't think I've ever shown off my Joe Hill or, hey, JB, how you doing? You're making chocolate chip and blueberry pancakes while you watch. So let's go the whole hog. Now, I'll just, I'll throw the it stuff in there. What I'll probably end up doing because I spent like the majority of the beginning of this video just pouring sweat. I will probably just refilm the entire thing. All right, Christopher, but I'll make it quick. Just for you, I will make it quick. I'm doing great, JB. All right, so let's start with the limited for Joe and you got everyone else can leave if they want to but I'll do this for Christopher. So this is 20th century ghost, the limited edition and you can see the spine. It's blank on the back. Let's just go book by book. This is the first edition hardcover, 20th century ghosts. That's, this is first book. Next up, we have horns and horns. It says, blessed shall you be when you go out. It says the same thing back here. This is sun tough press, but look at this. Oh my God, it's so sexy, so good. My favorite copy of any Joe Hill book I own. Yes, even more than the one I'm about to show you. Well, I'm going to get there in a second, but this is the only one, only one of the old ones I don't own a limited heart shape box. First of NOS 482 or NOS 4A2. Yes, I know that's what it says. The dead skeeter is my favorite part of this entire cover. It is so pretty. Easily my favorite version of this, is this basic one. Because this other one I'm about to show you while it is absolutely exceptional, it is a little busy and it's also heavy as balls. Come here, it's the heaviest, y'all see that? Y'all see that weird glitch when I dropped it? Now this is the IDW limited edition that they did. It has NOS 482, NOS 4A2, and it has the tie-in comic book, The Wraith, it's the front, the spine. I have a complete unboxing and it's a showing off of this one on the channel, so just look that up. Because all this dark matter back here, that's the comic book, that's the graphic novelization. Also this thing is super fragile. The paper they made the dust jacket out of, ridiculously cheap. It's like wet cardboard. The first of the disappointments, the fireman. Must not have deckled edges. No, it doesn't. There are King family comics, only Joe Hill. He's did a lot of stuff like the cape, basket full of heads or something like that. Yeah, this was just a stand rip-off. In fact, the vast majority of the characters in here are named after characters from the stand. Joe Hill does not do Easter eggs well. And then the next disappointment, strange weather. Yeah, this is a novella collection. The next one's his short story collection. The second short story collection. It was literally like he was trying to copy his father's like publishing thing, like he would release several novels, then a short story collection, then a novella collection, then he did it again with another short story collection. So yeah, I'm about to show off Locke and Key in a second, Christopher. We're gonna get there, I promise. We're gonna get there. Full throttle. The biggest disappointment. The only one I liked in here, I think it was a no. A loft was in strange weather. But there wasn't much I liked about this one at all. Now, to appease Christopher, Locke and Key, all six volumes. I think there's more now, but I didn't care for them, so I'm not gonna be buying them. That's Joe out of the way. Now, we do Owen. Don't tell Owen, we did him though. Don't tell Owen. We're all in this together. It's a novella and six short stories, I believe. Once again, Deckled Edges, love it. It's only four. It's only four short stories. So there's an opening novella and four short stories. Yeah, we're getting to Tabitha in a second, Gabriel. We're getting to Tabitha. This one is good, really good. It's probably a little bit too political for me, but I enjoyed it.  I don't care what anybody says.  This is up there with Infinite Jest, with Thomas Pynchon. It's an amazing, amazing book.  It's all based in reality. There's nothing supernatural. This is amazing. Double feature, by Owen King. And then, and then, and then, we have the curator. I don't have anything to say about this one, because I couldn't finish it. Why did Stephen King co-write more books with Tabitha? He didn't, King didn't write any books with Tabitha. He wrote Sleeping Beauties with Owen, and he only wrote a short story with Joe, which was, no, he did full, he did a full throttle with them too, but he did very short stuff with Joe, and he did, he did In the Tall Grass and Throttle. Was that what it was called? Hang on. Yeah, he did Throttle and he did In the Tall Grass. No, Gwendi's button box is Richard Chismar. It's a completely different person. Here, look. See, Richard Chismar? No, it's not Tabitha. He's never written anything with Tabitha. Okay, so that's Owen King. Oh, we also have this Flight or Fright. It's whatever, it's a toss away. Hang on, guys. I got a squat to do this. Anyways, Prime Evil, this is another one off just because it has a Stephen King story in it. All right, now onto Tabitha, and then we'll be done. I do not have all of Tabitha's books. I only have the ones that interest me. You're welcome, Christopher. I like, I really enjoyed In the Tall Grass because of the baby scene.  We have Small World. Again, we're on Tabitha's books. This is the best book she ever wrote, I think. But she also did a lot of romance, one-on-one. And you'll notice these are not first admissions. These are paperbacks. The Trap, she reminds me of my friend, Nettie, or Nettles as you guys know her. Is this a book club edition? No, it's a first, this is a first edition. It doesn't have book club edition, but it does have the ISBN on it. Yeah, and what you're seeing here, it doesn't say book club edition. It says continue on back flap. And then down here, some copyright information. It's not a book club edition. Pearl, which I believe is another romance. I don't remember anything about the Trap.  And then Caretakers. This one's in great condition, and I found it like this. It is also, yeah, it's a first edition. So, $13.95, just like Firestarter. Probably came out around the same time. I know Firestarter came out in 1980 because that's the year I was born, 1983. I was wrong. But anyways, that's my entire collection. The only thing missing are the plumes that I told you guys about. And if I do find them, I'll cut them into the video. And of course, Carey and the 25th anniversary of it. So I hope you guys enjoyed this. Oh, one more thing, one more thing. I've shown this off before, but the Stephen King calendar from 2014, this has in it where he references TAC, T-A-K as the outsider, TAC the outsider from 2014. Thank you, Solvents, I appreciate it. I thought you left like a long time. I don't know why I thought you said goodbye a long time ago. I'm glad you enjoyed it. You're welcome, Ron. This was a lot of fun.  This is the longest stream I've done in a hot minute. Ah, you've been lurking, reading minutes. Hey, go on, go on, brother. Reading is better than anything I'm doing. Thanks, JB, I appreciate it. You're welcome, Sloan. Yeah, it's cool to see all these King novels in one place. Yeah, I gotta go, now I gotta go back and count them all to see if I beat Zach's books. This is my challenge. It's not like he was saying, I have more books to need. No, that's not what he was saying. But I need to go back and count them all to find out if I actually do have more books than him. There's a guy on Instagram called Ryan, and he has the biggest Stephen King collection I've ever seen. Not only does he have every copy of every single Stephen King book, but he also has all the memorabilia. He has an entire Stephen King room in his house. The dude makes the money. He makes ridiculous change, man.  Oh, you just joined the Discord too? What's your name over there, Solvents? I'll probably see ya. Shit, my back. Oh, yep, Solvents. I'm waving to you. All right, cool. Yeah, I chat a lot over there, Solvents. So if you ever have any questions, if you wanna hit me up, feel free to tag me. But make sure that you actually tag me, just at E, and I will come up. You have to tag me, because if you don't, there's so many people commenting on there. There's over 80 people in there. There's so many people commenting that I will lose you. So if you have a question specifically for me, at E. You're welcome, Christopher, and sorry for all the confusion when you first came in. I just wasn't clear on what you were talking about. You too, Ron, have a good night. The, it should be in the doobly-doo. It's down there in the description, Jimmy. Literally just click on the link down in the description. I saw the title and instantly thought of a short I recently saw where you were worried the weather took, yeah, exactly, Gabriel, yeah. I was terrified when I saw it.  For the first time ever, I dodged bad weather. If you don't know, I lost my original Stephen King collection, my mother was supposed to pass down to me when I was 15. We had just moved out here from California to Alabama and we moved down to Mobile, the day Hurricane Opal hit land in 1995. All of our stuff was on the back of a flatbed trailer. We found our couch three blocks away in the middle of a street, destroyed all of her books, and then fast forward to like 2005, maybe something like that, when Ivan or Igor came up through Montgomery, it flooded my storage shed. I was in between places. I was living with my mother, so I had all my stuff in the storage shed. It flooded the entire thing and the only thing that these were on the top, the water came up to about right here. And I always remember that I had my copy of Insomnia and half of it was waterlogged. But it hadn't gotten all the way up to here. So whew, I still have those. But I have rebuilt this entire collection. This is the third time.  I would have been like, that's it. I'm not doing it again. Done, GG. Awesome, Jimmy. I'll wave at you later. I am tired. I'm going, it does suck, but I feel like this time I have a much better collection. It's more complete and it's actually all first editions, except for that blaze, but don't tell nobody. It would have been special to have, because I lost my mother in 2020. It would have been nice to have that collection, but yeah, three times is a lot of dedication. He's my favorite author. Now mind you, most of the first editions I have over here were either eBay scores in big lots and that's why I have so many doubles. I usually just give away the doubles, but I'll buy big lots of books and then I'll pick and choose what I want to keep, like if it's a better condition kind of deal, or yard sales and especially estate sales, because all the people, this is going to sound terrible. I know how bad it sounds. Bear with me for just a second. All the people who bought all of his first editions back in the day are dying right now. So if you see estate sales, go to them if it's open to the public and look for books, because the generation of big time readers who liked Stephen King are dying off. So have I ever met King? Twice. Neither time did I get any signatures or anything. The first time, actually there was three times. I'll tell them in order. The very first time he came through, drive through at a Burger King I was looking, I was working at in Brewer, Maine. If you don't know Brewer in Bangor, where he lives are Twin Cities. He came through a drive-thru and ordered, this is how long ago it was, 99 cent double cheeseburgers. He came through the drive-thru, ordered two double cheeseburgers, paid and left. Didn't say a word to anyone other than ordering at the, he was in an old pickup truck. The second time I was standing outside of Eastern Maine Medical Center, and I was up there for my back. I was about to have my, this would have been, hang on, 2008. So it would have been my third back surgery. And supposedly he had quit smoking at this time, but the man literally come walking out of the ER and asked me for a cigarette. I was so flummoxed, I couldn't talk. I couldn't talk to him. I couldn't say anything. Took the cigarette, gave him a cigarette and he went off and smoked a cigarette. I could not talk to him. The third time was in a ride aid. He was in a ride aid standing about three people ahead of me. Like I said, I lived in Brewer, Maine for a while. I worked at that Burger King. Anyways, so he was standing in front of me. So have I met him? No, but he did bum a cigarette off me once.  But the first thing that everyone told me when I first moved up there was he does not like being approached. He does not like people fanboying over him or making a big deal about him. He just wants to be a normal dude out in the world. So it took everything I had at ride aid not to fanboy all over him because I had missed my first two opportunities. No, no, not a convention. I just literally bumped into this motherfucker. I've been to his house multiple times, not inside. He doesn't let anybody inside the gates anymore. But his house is on West Broadway in Bangor, Maine. It took me literally like three minutes to drive from Brewer over there. I've been on the tours that the city has. It's called the Tommy Knocker Tour during Halloween.  It's really, really cool. But anyways, I got to goes. I gotta go. Love y'all. Thank y'all for joining me. This was hella fun. Most people like to be left alone, famous. This is true, Jimmy. This is true. But I appreciate you guys. This was just as much fun as I thought it was gonna be.  Take it sleazy, guys.
