I don't have my DCs and Marvels separate. I keep them alphabetical by character. With my most recent major reorganization, I put bookends on top of the Kallax and moved some books up top. I also decided to store the independent publisher books elsewhere. So my Kallax holds exclusively DC and Marvel.

I usually go sizes together by publisher. I’m like you spider-man is “s” etc. I’ll line things up by Era too. (Eg DC Bronze ages are together) For new books I have another shelf and once it fills up I do a complete re-organize. Oddly enough that’s what my plan is today as I have it off.

In the beginning I thought that this will be a fitness video, but it's not so far from it😅. Very much like your collection. You made me start collecting these 10 months ago and I don't have as much (35) as you to organize them alphabeticaly. I just have one shelf for dc, and one for marvel. I put together the same characters of course but my most important thing is, I always squeeze the books together, put them tight on the shelf, I don't like holes in a shelf, I don't know why 😃.

That 'other' shelf does have all the Dark Horse together, all the IDW together etc. Everything would probably only be 4 or 5 of your cubes. But I'm weird and dont collect marvel or dc superheroes. I like to go for 1-book graphic novels for the most part but do have some tpb series, like the idw Back to the Future and Curse Words from image.

Most of my omnibuses and oversized hard covers are X-Men, so I just keep them in the order that the material inside was released, and they're X. Punisher Max is P, Daredevil Frank Miller is D. Pretty simple, since I don't have that many omnibuses or oversized hard covers. Dealing with the normal trade paperbacks is a lot harder since I have a lot more of those and I'm not really that happy with how they're stored, but not too many options right now. Guess we'll see.
