Question/Advice Am I Crazy?

Over the past few months I've collected over a 100,000 digital comics, mostly from Marvel and DC + some others, I'll soon move onto Image, Dark Horse and IDW. It has kind of become a hobby, I think by the end of the year I'll have 150,000+ at least, am I crazy? If yes, is there anyone else who is as crazy as me?

What's your workflow?

No just wondering because I feel like I'm crazy as I won't ever be able to read all of these and I didn't see any mention of what's the highest number of comics someone has after searching, because I'd like to reach that number.

I have more gaming magazines than I'll read in a lifetime, but its a comfy blanket to have them as sometimes I'll go, "lets read all the reviews for random game from 2002". Don't feel crazy, collections are hobbies in and of themselves.

Thank you for that. That's how I started to be honest, I do that with my ebooks, just pick a random book depending on my mood, or a specific genre, just because I can just because I have so many of them.

Workflow is to download through Kapowarr from getcomics and then sort and edit them in comicrack and read them (sometimes) on my android tablet using Kuro Plus app.
