Hello Everyone:

Many thanks to xodacia81 for making this happen. I recently sent nearly 185 Green Arrow comics to Houchen Bindery to be turned into six (6) HC editions. The set includes the Volume 1 (4) issue mini-series, Longbow Hunters, the entire Volume 2 (Mike Grell) run, and miscellaneous books from Volume 3, Green Arrow/Black Canary, and The Brave and the Bold. Here are some pics:

Again, thanks to xodacia81 for selling his GA collection. :thumb:

Thanks, Brother! Longbow Hunters is second behind the Michael Barr 4 issue mini-series, if I got my release order correct. :hm:

Hey StarBrand:

My total cost for the binding was $123.00 and it is broken down as follows:

$18.00 for DFAB binding X 6 HC's = $108.00 plus $15.00 for Media Mail shipping back to me. I was able to save the initial shipping costs by dropping off the 185+ books directly at the bindery, so you would have to add shipping to get your books there.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Michael

Great looking set Michael! Thanks for sharing. :clap:

I have this idea in the back of my head that someday I'll end up doing the same for some older runs... whether or not that day ever comes is another story :lol:
Where are we going and why am I in this hand-basket?
