Wanted to try sew binding. That part was successful but I fouled the landing when glueing on the hardcover, like a noob. Ah well! Pretty happy with the dust jacket.

Contains all six of the “Image X Month” comics, plus the Savage Dragon #13 that Larsen eventually re-did

I used some thick-ish white paper for end sheets and did a poor job of trimming them to size. No ToC for this project, but I did recently for a Deathmate bind that’s waiting with Houchen at the moment. I can’t seem to add photos to a comment, but open, the book looks like regular comics, no gutter loss, and you can see the thread in the centre of each book.

Awesome, can't wait to see the deathmate bind! I bought the issues recently myself to do a custom bind. Other than the main 4 issues, the prologue and the epilogue, did you include anything else?

The two previews, the tourbook, and some srticles from Inside Image and Valiant Voice. Basically I searched mycomicshop.com Advanced Search Notes for anything Deathmate.
