1982 Style Guide by Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez getting a new edition released in August! This is the ad form the back of an upcoming issue of a DC Comic that comp copies went to creators and some of those creators leaked the back cover ad to the internet. There's been no official announcements yet, but that ad is out there in the world. -M I've been wanting this for decades! I'm so excited this is FINALLY coming! -R

Kickstarter goodnesss. I've supported every Paperfilms project because I love the works of Jimmy Palmiotti. He writes fun and interesting stories and always has amazing talent on the books. This project, Fantasima, is a mix of jungle action and supernatural. I always get the tier that has Amanda Conner's covers because she's amazing. Again she doesn't disappoint. Look how gorgeous her work work is. Can't wait to read them

I've always loved seeing people bind stuff... is it as expensive as I suspect it is? I could definitely get behind getting extra copies and doing some 2099 HCs. I remember a thread maybe on CBR with stiff people had done some of them were really amazing with like a trade dress and vol. numbers, the whole works. Its about $50 per volume, depending on the bindery. The one I use that's the rate. During the pandemic I was doing about 7 volumes at a time, but the price was $35 then. But then I hired someone to design my covers,spines and backs. I gave them the art and they came up with it. It makes the comics cooler but like you said.. it can get up there in price if you do in bulk. I have done 47 bound volumes. Mainly stuff from the 90s of runs of comics that'll never see the light of day getting any printing treatment or stuff that's out of print. Mainly its to put them front and center on my bookshelves for runs I love to re-read. Also, not a cheap hobby to do. It's an expensive thing to do. Depends on how creative you want to be with your binds. I get my done with art and make them one of a kind. But I'm all for it That Silverblade volume is beautiful. Re: price - from what I've seen it doesn't seem unreasonable, although as with everything else it's got much more expensive over the last three-four years. I wouldn't be going for the fancy covers, much more along the line of EdoBosnar's. I'm looking to see if there's a local bookbinder who'll do this for me, as postage seems to be a major cost which theoretically could be saved. Do people use local firms? I'm in Australia, so those US-based places I've read about are not an option. Thank you! I use a bindery that does textbooks and comics here in the US. I don't know about Austrailia but maybe check out Spink & Thackray. They're UK based but you never know.

Something comic related. I love it when comic artists create art outside of the medium. Here's two from Mike Allred and Dave Gibbons. Allred's art for his band, The Gear. The Gear was a project that went along with his Red Rocket 7 book; a companion of songs to go along with the story. And Dave Gibbons doing the artwork for the cover of Kula Shaker's debut album, K. I like bringing stuff like this to cons and seeing their faces that its not all comics we collect.
