Brian861's Collection

[Brian861]

Locke & Key Small World Signed.jpg

I received this last year from my Secret Santa over at DT.org. My one and only signed SK book and included a Remarque personally done for me by Glenn Chadbourne. A gift I will truly treasure the rest of my days.

Love the Locke and Key cover because David Petersen is my new obsession. His Mouse Guard books are top notch and his prints are beautiful.

Great additions!

Thanks, Jason! You'll have to point me in the direction of Petersen's stuff.

Great additions!

Thanks, Martin!

A few new slipcases that Jeff Whiley made up for me:

Impossible to find a non-custom slipcase that will fit bagged and boarded comics. So I asked Jeff to make me few for a test run. He nailed it of course! From left to right: Small World, Tales From the Darkside, and my Locke & Key collection so far. I doubt I'll ever find all the variants for that series but it's fun for me to try. It does help that they usually list all the variants inside the cover.

The slipcases for the comics look great - and are a great idea. I know back in the day when I collected comics, some came with slipcases. Heck, even my GF's Jem and MLP comics have some slipcase options. But not nearly as nice.

And two months later I just see the comment to me - David Petersen is the creator of a comic called Mouse Guard. Takes place in the 12th century and is about mice with swords. Humans don't exist and all the animals are to scale.

I've purchased a ton of prints from Petersen and even recently acquired an original drawing that I love.

I agree that the slipcases for the comics are great. I would love to do something like that for my collection, but due to the size I'd have to consider making them myself to save on money. There are a couple of tutorials on Youtube about making slipcases for comics but I haven't really checked them out.
