feeling so irritated about these books. not because they aren’t good or cool objects but they’re so BIG and BULKY and i’m pretty sure they’re out of print by now and YOU CANT BUY THEM DIGITALLY

daily newspaper comics are imo perfect for digital archives— they look great epaper, and there’s no real advantage to them being in a book since they’re already divorced from their original context as disposable newspaper strips. plus there’s myriad ways to package them to sell— complete sets, whole years, or even individually. but no one seems to be interested in it! so i’m stuck lugging these halfway across the country just to have access to them
