Getting started book binding...

I want to get my X-O run into binding form.

I see wonderful pictures of some of the finished products you guys have posted in the past. Is there a binding company out there that you would recommend?

Especially one that may have the die for the X-O or Valiant logo.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is a nice thread over at Valiantcollectorsociety.com to answer many of your questions.

Ive been waiting to send in some books too. I have about 10 binding projects that need to be sent to a bindary.

I believe Houchen has the Valiant logo die that LIbrary Binding used to have. You can check them out here:

I've used Library Binding and then Houchen to bind a bunch of my Valiants. I couldn't be happier with the work.

Hope this helps!

I should be getting my second complete Atlas Seaboard in the mail next week. (yes, my second complete set VF and higher

) I purchased these books with the purpose of getting the books bound and will be sending them out ASAP. I might as well get it done while I still have the money saved up. I figure that I can have everything bound in three volumes. I can't remember if the same company mentioned above is the same company I planned on going with or not.

Steve Topper (a board member here) and Phil over on the Atlas Comics forums are great points of knowledge on binding and have a been a great help.

Good luck on your project. Keep us posted on how it's going.

Will do. I usually re-read X-O at least once a year, this will make it that much easier.

Thanks again
