Those look great! I honestly don't know why Marvel haven't released official Civil War omnibuses yet, but when they do, I want them to look like these :)
Love this. You inspired me to custom bound my full Star Wars (Vol 2) and Doctor Aphra (Vol 1) runs earlier in the year and I recently got them back from Houchen. I am in love with them and wanted to say thanks for the amazing jumpstart due to your videos. The next set I’m about to do is a mix of TPB and Singles like you did. I’m trying to avoid the unbinding the TPBs because it looks like a lot of work. Given you did DFAB here, would you also recommend doing Oversewn binding? Any preference on which one is better from your POV? I did smyth sewn for my last customs and they turned out great for the most part.
So happy to hear that the videos have been helpful! I think oversewn is a great option. I haven’t done oversewn in a while but I think it’s a great option. I think they are about equal in quality. At least that my experience with them. Really comes down to preference if you like something a little more old school with the oversewn binding.
I'm planning a Warlock and the Infinity Watch custom. Any pointers? I'm including Warlock Chronicles and the Thor/Silver Surfer parts of Blood and Thunder. I might have to remove some ads to thin it down for 2 volumes.
That’s going to be a good one. For my set it found that the tpb’s were a good starting place because they took out all the ads. I think your point about making sure that the books aren’t too big is also good. These civil war books were just a little bigger than I would have liked.
@@thecomicarchive I'm excited for this to be my first. Once I have a good flow figured out I want to do one for my Terror, Inc. For that I'll probably do a custom cover.
I have done a Multiversity bind, but it wasn't in this one. I thin you might be seeing a Superior Spider-Man bind. That one is pretty fun as you can get the tpb's pretty easily and it's a self contained story for the most part.
Wow this is crazy... Instead of waiting for an omnibus that will likely never happen, just make your own. I'm tracking down all the OHC's. So far I only got the Spiderman and Fantastic 4 one besides the main story 😛 Are you planning on doing Fear Itself or Siege? Keep up the good work!
Hell yea brother that's what I'm talking about 💪😁. Funny part is I was thinking to do that with books i have. It would be just my luck then it gets made into an official one. Sons a bitches.
