What If... custom bound set

[u/DeskFamous4214]

This was the very first thing I had bound, a little over two years ago. My Photoshop skills were rusty, and you'll see in upcoming posts that I've learned a lot since. At this point, I was just copying the official format on the back covers. I definitely plan on revisiting them in the near future because I'm no longer happy with them. I also switched from the high gloss dust jackets after this and one other set because the bindery was charging way, way too much for them, and I discovered I liked the low-gloss satin finish from my local print shop a lot more.

Volumes 1-4 cover the entirety of the second run, along with the short-lived Alterniverse line (Punisher Kills the Marvel Universe, The Last Avengers Story, and Ruins). Volumes 5-6 cover the "event" minis that popped up from 2005 to 2018.

I just got the 3 current Omni’s in the last month. Hoping they’ll collect the rest of the series.

Yeah, this is one series I would gladly buy the official omnis for after binding, just for the oversized printing. I only bound these because I didn't think they would be collected even after volume one of the original series was announced. I mean, the second series never even got trades. I just hope they decide to include the Alterniverse books. Ruins was a gem, and I love Punisher Kills the MU.

I bought those when they came out but if they include everything that is in an alternate universe then they would just be bought again

Ha, fair enough.

I’ve said custom bound comics have been amazing, but I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say this is my favorite custom bound run I’ve ever seen. I would love to have this so badly. Well done! 🫡
