This may turn out to be a terrible idea, but I’m going to try binding my complete run of DC’s 1988 series of Doc Savage into a book.
The comics aren’t worth anything, and it’s a pain to keep them in the plastic baggies. I’d prefer to have them all in one place.
I have a few series of comics which I enjoyed, but pretty much everyone else hated (for example, “Harley Quinn”), so they will never be collected into a trade paperback.
I also have some comics where I’d like the trades, but can’t justify buying the entire thing again (for example, “Outlanders”).
There are two separate Instructables on this: one with just glue, and one with stitching, like I learned through the San Francisco Center for the Book.
- using glue
- stitching version (they bound their issues of Make magazine)
