This is Comic Geekspeak episode 749, a conversation with Mark McKenna.

Welcome to the show. I'm Peter Rios.

I'm Brian Christman.

And I'm Brian Deemer.

And this episode of Comic Geekspeak is sponsored by Library Binding. Take it away.

Library binding. How I love me some library binding. I'm a book guy. I love books. I always have since I was a little kid.

And, you know, comics, comic books, obviously book is in the title.

But, you know, it's not like what you think of as a book, right?

This is why I love hard covers.

I can get as many, and trades.

It's not just a, it's convenient to read a trade.

It's an actual book as opposed to this periodical magazine type format.

So hardcovers are awesome.

And the concept of being able to make your very own hardcover out of your comics

that you already own and put them in any order you want and make any combination of comics inside that and make any color cover

with any words that you want on it and all that kind of stuff make your own book for a book lover

that's like the holy grail and then to find out that you can make your own book for only 15 bucks

that's like a double whammy i mean in a good way right not the not the not the whammy. I mean, in a good way, right?

Not the whammy from the game show, but a good one.

And so you just go to librarybinding.com and you can make your own hardcover.

There are bindery in Texas.

You simply gather up the comics that you want to have made into a book.
