But with Hope and especially Rachel’s personal challenges, the Doc Stearne book has taken forever and I am unaware of any other projects in the pipeline. Are you aware of any new projects? I would love to support them if they exist. porcupine48 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That depends if the author can locate the two elusive issues for the tome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping in the next 18-24 months I can finish the restoration work, but I am planning on releasing a Terry Kane hardcover! Progress shot - Here I've taken the colour out of the cover to Grand Slam Three Aces 48 in order to clean up and restore the linework! sfcityduck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonovanY Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) And for the colour stories that will be in the volume, here's the level of restoration I'm going for... Restoration on the left, original on the right. This is a pretty rushed proof of concept, the final would have a bit more attention to detail.

Qua-Brot Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Got this back today - very disappointed with the grade, but it is what it is. Some defects that should have pressed out, but has some staining. Still looks amazing for the grade. sfcityduck and thehumantorch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like my reprints as close to the original printing as possible. Just scan it and adjust the contrast and stuff a little and print it. Fantagraphics is pretty much the only one that reprints old comics right at all. For some reason everyone else loves to mess with the artwork and recolor everything. porcupine48 and sfcityduck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
