'I Have All the Books in the World.. All But One' [COMIC]

community.livejournal.com — Mister Bookseller is unsurprisingly about a bookseller, but what's curious is that his shop seems to have a copy of each book ever--- in fact, it has all the books ever. All but one. Touching and beautiful comic. Safe for work.

  • eliburford, on 09/06/2008, -4/+70414 years old to view adult content? Did anyone else get that warning?
    I see no adult content, but it was a very nice story.
  • blacksteve0, on 09/06/2008, -9/+374That was beautiful, and if Digg was a beautiful place this would make frontpage.
  • ebcreasoner, on 09/05/2008, -7/+362Wow, I would love to see this as an animated film. Thanks
  • rodriguex, on 09/05/2008, -20/+341The missing book is in Marcellus's suitcase.
  • 8BitGaming, on 09/06/2008, -4/+294ಥ_ಥ
  • fxu1989, on 09/06/2008, -4/+220Oh man.... that was heart-wrenching...

    STUPID SANDRA >:(
  • loqqq, on 09/06/2008, -5/+204Safe for church.
  • mandraque, on 09/06/2008, -2/+196Very touching, no matter how much you gain in life later on, you can never undo a bad decision. Don't sell yourself out.

    everybody agree with this interpretation?
  • JLecker, on 09/06/2008, -9/+200Man, what a bitch.
  • chrishavel, on 09/06/2008, -0/+161You really should be 14 before you find out some girlfriends are Evil and will ask you to discard your soul to prove your affection.
  • smashingmonkey, on 09/06/2008, -31/+190Dugg for making me feel something. I wasn't sure I still could after the RNC.
  • gdeanu, on 09/05/2008, -2/+160Oh :(
  • prguitarman, on 09/06/2008, -3/+122I can sort of relate to this. There was a book my mom gave me that I used to read all of the time when I was 10 or so, until it disappeared one day. 12 years later I found the book again on ebay, and it really did take me back to when I originally owned it. However, inside the cover it says "December 1991, To Blake. Love mom and dad". It made me wonder if this 'Blake' kid is out there wondering where his book is, and if it meant as much to him as it did to me.
  • sock2828, on 09/06/2008, -7/+126Not all comics are funny you insensitive douche bag
  • Shadowhawk22, on 09/06/2008, -3/+118I would LOVE to see more of these comics around. This made my night.
  • KyleGoetz, on 09/06/2008, -2/+111҉ ๏̯͡๏)
  • JohnsonGotOwned, on 09/06/2008, -5/+112Dugg for "Adult verification- Yes I'm over 14"
  • SugarCoatedSalt, on 09/06/2008, -5/+93wow, that was good.

    I'm not really into comic strips, but this was really good.
  • kawaiirobo, on 09/06/2008, -0/+84that and to make up for the mistake by undoing the mistakes of others, why else would he have every other book in the world.
  • berryhill, on 09/06/2008, -2/+76Kind of disturbing I had to be just 14 to see adult content.
  • Terasiel, on 09/06/2008, -4/+71Strange that almost no one here is commenting on the obvious point: Jealously is a destructive force that can only hurt those you love.
  • madeingermany, on 09/06/2008, -0/+64I'd refine it to 'Digg can be a beautiful place'.
  • stradf, on 09/06/2008, -3/+63Digg is a beautiful place.
  • Nick5309, on 09/06/2008, -0/+58holy *****, i JUST got finished watching Pulp Fiction again, and i hopped on digg, and this was the first article i read, and then i read your comment. GET OUT OF MY HEAD CHARLES.
  • LucasVB, on 09/06/2008, -1/+52Brilliant story and fantastic art. Thanks for the link, it made my night.
  • inactive, on 09/06/2008, -4/+55And now that it did, the grammar police are going to beat you for not using the subjunctive 'were', rofl
  • kawaiirobo, on 09/06/2008, -3/+52A story on the front page of digg that doesn't bash politics, apple, Microsoft, etc.? I am very pleasantly surprised, thank you for restoring my faith in the digg community.
  • Arcan, on 09/06/2008, -0/+45Click the "next" arrow. The warning is for the whole site, not just this page.
  • ej1oo1, on 09/06/2008, -1/+44someone always brings up politics... oh well...
  • redfan, on 09/06/2008, -2/+45So touching. He could probably do an entire series about The Bookseller.
  • directedition, on 09/06/2008, -0/+42It made front page.... but so did seven videos of people face planting on concrete... Digg always has that ambivalent mix of the beautiful and the ugly.
  • Rabdsquirlz, on 09/06/2008, -6/+46More of a short than a full film but certainly...
  • RickyHo, on 09/06/2008, -0/+39I would have chosen the picture book over her... bitch
  • lex0nyc, on 09/06/2008, -0/+38Why? It's good this way.
  • Darkkish, on 09/06/2008, -1/+38That were beautiful.
  • revanrules, on 09/06/2008, -0/+37yep, and i dont understand why
  • KyleMistry, on 09/06/2008, -3/+39That was actually pretty nice.

    Beats most of the comics that make it onto digg, anyhow.
  • btschul, on 09/06/2008, -3/+38I have never used this this site before (Livejournal, not Digg), and I clicked on the green "forward" arrow up at the top thinking it took you to the next page in the comic, and instead I saw this weird *****: http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a57/bucketfoot/ba ...
  • ahmedb07, on 09/06/2008, -1/+33I usually find 'I can relate to this' comments annoying but ur story was actually pretty cool
  • Nitrodist88, on 09/06/2008, -1/+33***** Sandra, castrating bitch.
  • BradOFarrell, on 09/06/2008, -0/+30I don't think it was about the girlfriend, I think it was about his reaction. He LET her do it. It was about how a regret can affect you for the rest of your life.
  • AWBoy666, on 09/06/2008, -3/+33I've had two girlfriends who found old letters and cards that other women I had loved had given me. One of them tore them to shreds while laughing and the other refused sex until I threw them out.

    Have no doubt.......most women are this way. They are incapable of understanding that you could ever feel for anyone other than them. It's pathetic.
  • SquigglyP, on 09/06/2008, -0/+30it would be bittersweet to spend your life helping people regain something you could never have again.
  • epadafunk, on 09/06/2008, -2/+32I usually find sympathy comments totally pathetic, but yours took it to a whole new level.
  • gw8t3st, on 09/06/2008, -2/+32Awesome face. Dugg.
  • InRaged, on 09/06/2008, -1/+31/agreed
  • KyleGoetz, on 09/06/2008, -0/+29Somehow this seems like the perfect answer to that comic.
  • Rikkochet, on 09/06/2008, -0/+29It's not Fox Trot or Garfield. Sometimes it's just an illustrated anecdote. Sorry.
  • SeventhSon, on 09/06/2008, -0/+28I knew girls were evil and gross way before I was 14.
  • wjmoner, on 09/06/2008, -4/+32Great story. The pretext is similar to many "lost book" stories, but the one I remember most recently is in the film, "Definitely, Maybe."

    I do like the depth of the story. Ramenhood, read the comic again, and tell me why the bookseller may have decided to run a bookstore with every book in history?
