    ASM bound book?

    in Newbie Comic Collecting Questions

    Posted · Edited by Nate Hartz

    I know of a few creators that had their individual comics bound at a book bindery. Mark Waid has done this and I believe Roy Thomas has too. They more than likely were Smyth sewn through the staples and than attached to a fabric backing. I do this will a lot of my own comics. I like just walking up to the bookshelf and grabbing whatever I want to read instead of pouring through long boxes. 

    I know that a few years back a chronological publishing copies by year of Marvel Comics went on sale. These were made by someone at Marvel and they went through a majority of the 60s-70s.

    in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues

    Hi Guys. I have a question. I submitted 8 books for cleaning, pressing and graded. They received it on 7/29/21. I knew that the wait times would be next year so I wasn't worried. I was just charged by CCS. Does this mean it is now going to go to CGC for grading or they have just entered the cleaning process?

    Are you content with your collection?

    in Original Comic Art

    I am happy with my collection. Are there pages I wished I picked up, sure, but that's life. I can always look up other's CAF pages when I want to browse art. I am grateful of all the friendships and meetups with artists and other collectors I have made over the years. I think I am at that point in my life where I can appreciate what I have been able to acquire and still buy new pieces when the desire comes along.
