| Henning: I was just thinking about why I’m not as into Batman as I used to be a couple of years ago, and I realized that it’s because Batman is someone you need when you’re feeling lonely and geeky, you know, because he’s this lonely cool guy. I don’t really mind Robin either. Everyone hates on Robin, but I think he’s cute. |

| Jen: I wanted to start collecting something, and Gladstone Gander is very limited. There is only about 15 merch pieces worldwide, and I now have the complete collection. I once lost the plate to some regular Disney collector, some Irishman, on eBay. About a year later he put it back online, and I made sure to get it. It wasn’t super expensive or anything, there aren’t that many Gladstone Gander collectors out there. He’s easily the most hated character in Donald Duck. In my stories—I’m a professional storywriter for Donald Duck—Gladstone usually gets Daisy, which is very unusual. |

| Robert: I have everything that Carl Barks ever did, or helped doing, but my most precious magazine right now is a copy of V for Vendetta with a personal drawing by David Lloyd. I don’t really live in this apartment, it’s mainly for my collection, and some programming. The collection used to be a lot bigger too, but I’ve been selling stuff. This T-shirt features art by Jack Kirby. It glows in the dark. |

| Jakob: Until the movie came out, I was pretty complete when it comes to Hellboy. The Holy Grail of my collection is a Hellboy statue by Shawn Nagle from –96. It's based on the cover of Dark Horse Presents #88. It was made in a limited run and I heard there was some freak accident and only 28 statues made it. I’ve made up rules limiting what I collect, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to stay in this apartment—both because of finance and space... I’m forced to keep my Nightmare Before Christmas and Toy Story collections in storage. |

Simon: I have every copy of Heathcliff that has ever been released. I have the videos and the soundtrack too. And I’ve made a comic strip about how it started out. As you can see my relationship with Heathcliff is complicated.
