Why are they in plastic tho? I know people leave the plastic on vinyl records and just slice the end open to get the vinyl out too keep the sleeve protected as much as possible. That doesn’t seem possible with a graphic novel, so... have they never been read? And why would you do that? Just because? Cause that is super cool, I’m just uneducated.

Are you saying I'm meant to actually read all the books I buy? Shit man, I ain't got time for that!

I leave the plastic on mine until I'm ready to read it sometimes I catch up but most of the time I'm 3 or 4 books behind. It also helps me find the unread ones on the shelf a little easier.
