Thank you Stephen for the shoutout for our graphic novel, Zhao Vol 1. It's so humbling to see it sitting on your shelf. I hope you enjoyed it and definitely hoping to add the next volume to it the next time we meet ! 😉
Gem in the future you should set all the lights to white, it’s annoying that the lights are constantly changing colour and you can’t see the statues very well because most of the time it’s too dark.
Yes I was going to write this comment, at the begining is ok to show the entire room with leds changing color, but for closeups is better to set the lights to white, I was jumping parts of the video for this same reason. GMC Great collection like always!
A solution for the bottom marks for your custom cabinets. Buy various sized circular wooden bases. paint them. and if you want attach a lazy susan under them so you can do 360 views of your statues
By far the best room tour on UA-cam. You got the setup my man. Would love to hear more podcast on how these big comic collectors got started, top movies, favorite books etc
From watching you 4 years ago to now & the cone up & everything you do for the comic community has been beyond inspiring man. I'm so happy to see that gorgeous basement finished & the shelves full. Here is to a legendary 2024 playa & happy & safe New Year's ❤❤
Happy New Years!!! And all your hearts desires in the coming months and years. And some love for young Nova Sam Alexander and the Champions/a team of "New Champions" like the October Variants alluded too! Didn't see the Heroes Return/BMB runs of Avengers either. Then again, I didn't know Nick Spencer had a whole Cap'n America set though! On that note, where does Captain America in Dimension Z sit chronologically I wonder? Props for having the Doctor Strange Omnis. I'll have to keep a look out, esp for the 90's "Sorcerer Supreme ones. You have a pretty full collection. But It makes it tough to fit Tradebacks in. Love the custom fit shelving w/ the sliding ladder too! You really are minted, man. Could only dream of having a collection like you have! All of the major entities from marvel in Omnibus form... Don't see A.X.E judgement day yet though. I'll have to continue with the video... Big props on a beautiful room though! One Last thing. You are Missing the Runaways Omnibus, and they are (sort of) a modern classic! I'll definitely use this video as reference for future collections of Dr. Strange, etc. They just released a Dr. Strange by Donny Cates and also the volume by Mark Waid and Jesus Saiz. No info on if there is an HC of each, but with any luck there is. All thats left after Mark Waid is the short-lived 7 Issue "Dr. Strange" Entry. Hopefully there will be a version of "Death of Doctor Strange" that eventually collects that, but following is yes, the "Death of Trade (hopefully they' have a hardcover)" which I'm hungering for myself to fill in my library of recent works. And that begins Jed Mackays' work which follows in the 2022, 10 -Issue adjectiveless- "Strange" vol. 3 and finally the current run from Apr. 2023 onward. Loving the peek at your collection, not sorry for going on a Doctor Strange tangent. Want to collect the og. couple volumes (60's though 80's) in the "Epic Collections" Might go with an volume 2 of the omni if I can find it. At least I aspire too. Need that Jason Aaron Omni. Besides "Death of Doctor Strange" thats the only Modern collection I need to fill mine out. Here's to a bare minimum of 25 Issues (or more!) to Jed Mackays most recent run! Here is hoping that the new W.A.N.D. be more cooperative and have longer lived than the former rendition. Let's just bring together a "cosmic -S. H. I. E. L. D" That's what the 2023 "Fury" one-shot alluded to, possibly. Also hoping to get a copy of Doctor Strange: Fall Sunrise by Tradd Moore (read the mini, HIGHLY recomended) this and Silver Surfer: Black are recommended if you enjoy Tradd's trippy art style. I have a Silver Surfer vol.2 Iss. #1 I bought for $20. Silver Surfer is a very collectible commodity, but I still wish they would do another ongoing instead of one mini after another. At least he's getting good stories. Here's to omnibusses to more of the modern marvel work. Which I'll be reviewing this video carefully for in the future!
Always appreciate vids like this. Helps me shape my own display/ideas for the future set up of my own. Looking forward to 2024 and your content coming soon!
Very late to the comment section, but I've just checked this video out. Seriously, what a collection! Stunning! Mind blowing omni collection, ridiculously impressive statue collection, and all shown in a super clean way. Very spacious and really well planned out. I didn't even know that many omni's existed! Thanks for the tour.
Such a sick setup. Love you repping so much Iron Studios 1/10 stuff, so underrated. And totally agree on Spiderman vs. Venom, just finished that Omnibus and it was great from start to finish.
Everything still looking great. Excellent collection pad, congratulations on obtaining and building your Gempire. Wishing you Phie and all yours a Happy New Year. May the New Year bring you guys much health and joy.
I love the setup Gem Mint. Everything's looking good. I wish they would make omnibuses for precode horror marvel atlas titles. Stay minty fresh my dude. Peace!
I was about 2 say.. tradition is tradition, so u know we expect an end of the year tour.. and wat better way to start the vid off with the Michael's Frame story reference 😂😂 good ol days
I always get mmmmmmaaaassssively jealous when i see these 'basement tours' of collectibles, big basements are a rare thing here in the uk unless you have the money to get a large detached house, but i would flipping love to be able to do this. i highly suspect others in the house wish i could too....
I have a deep appreciation for "Invincible" and "The Uncanny X-Men," particularly Claremont's run, which, in my opinion, stands as the pinnacle of X-Men storytelling. I frequently purchase my comics from Mom and Sons, and I also want to give a shout-out to Webster's Vault and Wanted Comix for providing excellent selections. Nice set up man
Wonderful display, I really like the blue floor and MK9 displays from Gamestop. I also do dig 90s old skool MK art, my fav is Patrick Rolo’s art on the MK Malibu Comics series Blood & Thunder along with Battlewave. They need to find Patrick so he came make a comeback for a new comic book, MK is due a comic series.
Christ..this is a thing of beauty..from the decor to the layout and positioning of books and statues..i would literally pay to enter this domain of worldly goodness..take a bow mate..you deserve it..
your basement certainly look better than mine unless you are a person who likes lumpy mold growing dirt floor basements. Anyway your shelfs are filled with nearly every type of omnibus and Manga except for the golden age like Golden age Batman, Superman, Wonder Women or Golden age Captain America, Marvel Mystery Comics, The Submariner or even Golden age Manga like Tetsuwan Atom AKA Astroboy. otherwise it a great looking room.
Yo! The end of year Gempire tour is always a must. Love this tradition. And now I gotta know more about that mask your daughter made. Happy New Year Gem, Phie and family.
Very impressive X-Men comic book collection! Those Iron Studios statues are very nice, but personally I don't think any statues should be under 12 inches tall. And I still feel like you need something nicer for those Sentinel statues. Maybe an XL Coffee Table right there in the center of the room. Expresso color.
Wow the cards in beginning i remember i had that set and the first, first marvel cards that were made, unfortunately i lost them all plus the 2200 comics i had during Hurricane Katrina and Ida, due to evacuating for 3 months 😢 i remember buying my cousin 2 unopened boxes of cards cause i already had 2 sets. I never knew they still made some, imma have to cop some. Salute 🫡 Gem💯 your basement is f@&kin awesome 😳💯 Happy New year
btw Posehn is pronounced poh-sain, rhymes with pain or rain. And Duggan is dug like "dug a hole". I only know this because both of them were on a D&D podcast that I used to listen to called Nerd Poker.
Looks awesome brother!! Congratulations!! Just wondering if you still had your lobo statue and ghost rider? Those two would look awesome together 💎💎 hope you kept them!! Im sure you are just trying to find room for all your statues, lots of awesome stuff 😎💎👍
Thank you Stephen for the shoutout for our graphic novel, Zhao Vol 1. It's so humbling to see it sitting on your shelf. I hope you enjoyed it and definitely hoping to add the next volume to it the next time we meet ! 😉

Next time
Hell naw it's fire
@@ahmadrussell7844 Having lights that you can’t properly see is “fire”? Haha ok dude.

18:20 Those 3 new Sideshow Spider-Man statues are incredible, I just absolutely love those bases, love them.
You've changed so much over the years man. Inspiring
GOATED ROOM
Takes me back full circle to the first room tour.
Absolutely wonderful.
Happy New Year!
From watching you 4 years ago to now & the cone up & everything you do for the comic community has been beyond inspiring man. I'm so happy to see that gorgeous basement finished & the shelves full. Here is to a legendary 2024 playa & happy & safe New Year's ❤❤
Truly insane
Beautiful Collection As Always! Books, figures, statues, 1UPs. Keeping the Gempire Ice Cold!💎 Have a Happy Safe New Year🎉
You're space is OUT COLD!!!
Marvel VS Capcom - Our Favorite Fighting Games! Awesome Collection!
Fabulous job on the room Gem. I could get lost in there for about month before coming up for sunshine.
Happy New Years!!! And all your hearts desires in the coming months and years. And some love for young Nova Sam Alexander and the Champions/a team of "New Champions" like the October Variants alluded too!

Yeees
Love the end of year room tour!
Always appreciate vids like this. Helps me shape my own display/ideas for the future set up of my own. Looking forward to 2024 and your content coming soon!
Love that the statues are divided by theme and thinned out to 1 per character. Really allows the room to breathe and doesn’t feel cluttered. Great job
Very late to the comment section, but I've just checked this video out. Seriously, what a collection! Stunning! Mind blowing omni collection, ridiculously impressive statue collection, and all shown in a super clean way. Very spacious and really well planned out. I didn't even know that many omni's existed! Thanks for the tour.
So unreal. Love it mate… congrats on all your success
Happy New Year Gem Mint 💎✌🏾

Happy New Year, the tours are always awesome.
I always get mmmmmmaaaassssively jealous when i see these 'basement tours' of collectibles, big basements are a rare thing here in the uk unless you have the money to get a large detached house, but i would flipping love to be able to do this. i highly suspect others in the house wish i could too....
Did I see a Daredevil by Waid Omnibus Volume 2 on your shelf and a brand new one on your table as well? Did you forget you already have it? Haha.
Awesome job gem and happy new year
Yooooooo cut felt and put it under the statue it will not stain your shelves
Man gem went from Everlast to Hard times John Cena and now Post Malone Post music career.
I have a deep appreciation for "Invincible" and "The Uncanny X-Men," particularly Claremont's run, which, in my opinion, stands as the pinnacle of X-Men storytelling. I frequently purchase my comics from Mom and Sons, and I also want to give a shout-out to Webster's Vault and Wanted Comix for providing excellent selections. Nice set up man
Amazing just Amazing
Love the room tour!!! But I miss the top 10 reads!! Happy new year love the content 🙂
Wonderful display, I really like the blue floor and MK9 displays from Gamestop. I also do dig 90s old skool MK art, my fav is Patrick Rolo’s art on the MK Malibu Comics series Blood & Thunder along with Battlewave. They need to find Patrick so he came make a comeback for a new comic book, MK is due a comic series.
Gem call up a carpet/floor-guy, they can do your baseboards!? Great tour! #HappyNewYear
Bruh, I’ve been watching you for years, and this setup is still AMAZING. PS: DC needs to reprint that Hawkman by Geoff Johns. Well done tour bro.
Christ..this is a thing of beauty..from the decor to the layout and positioning of books and statues..i would literally pay to enter this domain of worldly goodness..take a bow mate..you deserve it..
Great collection Dude!!✌🏾
wow time flies
Sick
your basement certainly look better than mine unless you are a person who likes lumpy mold growing dirt floor basements. Anyway your shelfs are filled with nearly every type of omnibus and Manga except for the golden age like Golden age Batman, Superman, Wonder Women or Golden age Captain America, Marvel Mystery Comics, The Submariner or even Golden age Manga like Tetsuwan Atom AKA Astroboy. otherwise it a great looking room.
Goat 🐐
you should do a stream where you hit some mk with your viewers if you haven’t! would love to run some games with you g
Dope
Yo! The end of year Gempire tour is always a must. Love this tradition. And now I gotta know more about that mask your daughter made.
Happy New Year Gem, Phie and family.
Whatever happened to that Spawn Statue? I always liked that statue but also the story that went along with it.
Great video
Very impressive X-Men comic book collection! Those Iron Studios statues are very nice, but personally I don't think any statues should be under 12 inches tall. And I still feel like you need something nicer for those Sentinel statues. Maybe an XL Coffee Table right there in the center of the room. Expresso color.
top!
What's up with the samurai hairstyle!? My favorite is still the Marvel Card setup in the entire basement
Wow the cards in beginning i remember i had that set and the first, first marvel cards that were made, unfortunately i lost them all plus the 2200 comics i had during Hurricane Katrina and Ida, due to evacuating for 3 months 😢 i remember buying my cousin 2 unopened boxes of cards cause i already had 2 sets. I never knew they still made some, imma have to cop some. Salute 🫡 Gem💯 your basement is f@&kin awesome 😳💯 Happy New year
Nice floor 👍
Fantastic Gem Mint! What happened to all your Berserk statues, Dark Phoenix XM statue, and Ghost Rider on Bike XM statue?
Which table(s) did you use for the sentinels dioramas? Great collection and set up you have there!
btw Posehn is pronounced poh-sain, rhymes with pain or rain. And Duggan is dug like "dug a hole". I only know this because both of them were on a D&D podcast that I used to listen to called Nerd Poker.
I can't imagine you've read all those. Or ever will!
Looks awesome brother!! Congratulations!! Just wondering if you still had your lobo statue and ghost rider? Those two would look awesome together 💎💎 hope you kept them!! Im sure you are just trying to find room for all your statues, lots of awesome stuff 😎💎👍
Nice
Lol . Hair salon tour next time
i hope this guy has good insurance lol
