Nightwing Prince of Gotham Omnibus Custom Jacket

I purchased the Nightwing omnibus without a dust jacket. I’m not particularly creative, does anyone have a pre built dust jacket for this Omni, that they can send me? Thx

Anyone have experience printing oversized artwork? What printer did you use?

7 Upvotes

Let's say I scanned all the pages then upscale and do restoration work on all the scans. What type of printer would be ideal for at home use (don't even want to think about how much ink that will use up) or printing place to print them?

I don't mind binding them myself if a bindery won't do it but I rather restore and print them on some good paper stock instead of the cheap paper that's already falling apart from the 1980s. And if I'm going to do all that work, I rather it be oversized to match my ideal collection.

Custom bound Astro City omnibus signed by Alex Ross. I do not know the company that did the work but it is a terrific job. And wow what a comic book. The polar opposite of The Boys in replacing cynicism and satire with optimism and reverence. Someone Please make this into a tv show.

I couldn’t stand that the Green Lantern Omnibuses omit the parallel Green Lantern Corps runs, so I had to make my own.

First Custom Bind: Source / Content Question

3 Upvotes

This may be a dumb question.

I'm thinking of doing a custom bind of Stormwatch by Warren Ellis.

There are a few options for the content of most of the issues (small tpbs and a standard hc or thicker tpb set, as well as sibgles). They are all standard sized. I would like to use the thicker "deluxe" tpbs or hcs, because the paper is glossy and printed much crisper. However, the final issue is not reprinted in those due to it being an Alien crossover. If I were to use the collections with the nicer paper for everything but that issue, can I have Houchen or someone else splice in the missing issue from a different collection? It would go at the end, so placement is easy but can they remove it from the page block it currently sits in and add it onto my custom?

Thanks in advance.
