Damn.

 

What's the new gig?

Something involving nanotechnology probably. I can hear it now. "We can press the very molecules of your book" :insane:

 

I thought Ellen's video made it quite clear the new direction pressing is going.

 

Child labor means even more profit.

Not gonna bother reading through all these again, lol, but thought I would have one little say!

 

Yes pressing is manipulation! How else does a worn GD/VG or VG comic become a solid FN overnight?

 

A individual, not the company or manafacturer has used his skills to upgrade the appearance of a comic.

 

I wonder when the comics get soaked in water, what effect (if any, maybe long term) does this have on the staples as I'm sure this is not good for them.

 

Also when a comic is pressed, does this not make it harder to detect if a comic has had it's staples replaced? As the press would make the staples allignment look natural on the inside pages? Just wondered!
