2:10 It'd be funny to try that now. You'd get fuck all. I suspect 13 years ago you wouldn't have got anything either.
i can honestly say that ive never seen a bad art job drawn by him yet.
Thank you for your service.
Arguably the greatest narrative/visual storyteller of all time. I can't wrap my head around his understanding of blacks.
how much did it cost to make also Is there a way I could buy theese
I’m 45 and I think those campy silver age Batman’s are awesome🤷♂️ But you gotta give it to Denny. He made Batman Batman.
crazy
For someone his age, at this time, he's sharp and has good memory.
Uhh, am I able to order a set of these 😅
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
out of all covers... why did you make that the one for Vol. 2???
what is the company that did the binding?
Houchen Bindery. I go to them a lot.
SICK!!!
how do you even go about doing this? I'd love to do it myself 🥲idk how much this cost you, but I'm interested in replicating this.
It’s a great way to read Invincible. I really love custom binding comics and think it’s a great way to keep my collection easily accessible to read. If you’re just getting started with the hobby I would suggest starting with something that you don’t love. Only because the amount of decisions you need to make can be overwhelming and you won’t know your preferences until you see them in hand. Houchen Bindery is my favorite (they are now called HF Grouo I think). And there are custom binding groups on Facebook where you can connect with the community for advice and help.
Please do not hesitate if you find an interview where he talks about the league of assassins
thank you! i recently bought a 70 lot of all shade the changing man, and was worried about all the individual issues getting lost or damaged. i am new to comic collecting, i like to read them, i like to bring them places. knowing theres a professional place that can get them all together for me saves me so much stress about ruining my comics. thank you again :)
Very happy to hear it!
do they have like any pre design that they save? I mean if they could just make another set for me that would be great😄
I don’t think they do unfortunately. Comic book binding is a small part of their business. There are groups on Facebook for buying and trading custom bound comics though. Maybe someone has something close there?
How much
Didnt know they released the full manga in color. I need these
i've come back and rewatched this video like 6 times now cause it's so cool!!!
How did you stich them together?
So the book binder used a glue binding which let me order and arrange the individual pages as I see fit. If you get in touch with Houchen Bindery they will help walk you through the process. They do all the heavy lifting, I just put everything in the order I wanted it.
@thecomicarchive thank you so much
@@thecomicarchive how would you recommend I get in touch with them?
Their website is hfgroup (dot) com. Scroll down and there is a section for comic books.
@thecomicarchive alright thanks just one more question where did you buy all the comics because some places I've seen are just not available
*Yanick is one of the best comic book artists ever. Seriously, he's in that pantheon!* 🖖🏼
WHERE IS HE NOW? ANY NEW VIDEOS?
I haven’t chatted with Paolo in a little while so I’m not sure what he’s up to these days. But I also miss his work. Such an amazing artist.
how much did this cost you? both for all the books and issues and to have these produced
I don’t have a total tally of what I spent. I used the compendiums to cut down on the cost of the main series which helped. The binding costs about $50-$60 per book depending on what options you choose.
@@thecomicarchive do you have an instagram i can reach out on? i’m really wanting to do this project myself
YOu couldnt get a wide angle lens for this?
is there a pdf version of this wonderful sketchbook?
That would be amazing. I haven’t seen one but maybe reach out to Steve on his instagram to see if he has anything like that?
would be wonderful @@thecomicarchive
Really cool to listen to
Baller status absolute legend
Do you have the custom hardcover covers posted anywhere? I'd love to use them for my custom set!
Happy Birthday, Rick!
Happy Birthday, Rick Geary
I wish I could send you all the books and pay you to do this for me!
It’s honestly not too hard to do. Since the bookbinder does the real work all I had to do on this was use a ruler and xacto knife.
True I probably still mess up NGL 💀
hard stuff!
Can you make an updated version for the infinity saga phase 1 to 3
sick bro
Does he lightbox to enlarge his thumbnails to work big on final board?
Do you design the hardcover and everything? I got a work commissioned by someone who had great works and now I’m thinking I might not get the flash of great covers because I didn’t provide something custom
Met him at a con last year , mad cool !!
Super impressive. I wish this was real to purchase 😭
Thanks so much! It’s a really fun way to read it.
God, I miss the age of a Batman editor who casually tossed off references to Susan Sontag and Aristotle. This guy is more single-handedly responsible for everything good about the character than any other solitary person.

You are a legend for ben10 classic art director ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Umm... NO for many reasons: -Good writers can only write what they know, relate to, or fantasize about. -Male comic writers are trying to sell that to audiences who connect with it. -There is nothing wrong with that, ever. -Female comic writers are welcome to write about their own knowledge, relating, or fantasies, anytime. -Then go sell that to audiences who connect with that or find a publisher who wants to. Write what you connect to, but never tell any writer to write anything they do not. If a story is chasing too many demographics, it will repel all of them. If anyone wants to write anything they wish, from hyper-sexualized hyper-idealized one-dimensional fantasy people, to outright smut, and can find an audience who wants that, good for them. Publishers should be free to go after any audiences they wish, and use writers who can get them. From there on, it's just competition for market share... and THAT is what people protect. Their own income, relevance, and careers. You are welcome to go for yours. It will not & can not be fair. Bc it just boils down to money.
Enjoyed your video. Regarding the blue/green side of the image not matching the blue/green of the glasses, I bought a nice pair of anaglyph glasses only to find out the lens was much too blue to block out the red. A standard cheap pair of anaglyph glasses with a greenish lens worked fine.
Thank you so much for making this well detailed video. I'm glad I can always refer to this video whenever I have a question about custom book binding.
Great work! Does this omnibus for sale? xD
Totally with him on the over rendered comic - something about them really throws you out of the flow and distracts from the reading of the comic. It turns a single panel into a distracting piece of 'art', rather than a piece of the whole. There are some artists I really admire the skill of, but I think they're terrible comic artists; reading their work from panel to panel is like pulling teeth.
easy my ass, Ive been trying to upload a comic and it won't even let me sign in despite me having an account
I would keep in mind this interview was from eight years ago at this point. I don’t think they had been bought by Amazon yet. I am sure that the purchase changed the process dramatically.
I love Steve Mannion's comics. I could watch him draw for hours. Are there other videos of him?
Steve is awesome. And a really cool guy. There is a series of videos with Steve on the channel. Just search on the series page.
I love that you made custom omnis for CrossGen. Fingers crossed Marvel puts out more after 'Sigil', but yours look amazing!
Thanks so much! I really love them too.
@@thecomicarchive Do you happen to know if Herring & Robinson Bookbinders is still around? I loved your CrossGen books so much that I wanted to get some of my own made, but can't seem to find a website by them anymore, thanks.
Unfortunately Herring & Robinson closed up shop. There aren’t many places that have the library of die stamps that they did. I just tried out Capital Bindery in Omaha and really liked the results. Houchen Bindery is an option too, though their prices are getting a little steep.
@@thecomicarchive Drat! Those CrossGen die stamps you have are amazing. I'll try out Capital Bindery and again - thank you for your help. It's appreciated.
