"Yeah, it's the Ordway from that Secret Origins 80-Page Giant reprint... I had help making the mock-up. I don't have any of the right fonts, so Urban, from the Marvel Masterworks Message Board (the same guy who wrote the create-your-own-back-cover javascript), created a template. All I did was choose the cover image (Ordway) and the images that appear in the montage beneath the "Chronicles" title. Actually, Urban did most of the work."
Tom had be pull together the solicitation text, cobbled from the first volumes of THE BATMAN CHRONICLES and GREEN LANTERN CHRONICLES
Great idea. It looks amazingly sharp! This would be flying off the shelves!!
ReplyDeleteI love the montage behind "Chronicles." Nice little variety there.
WANT.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this, Frank, and thanks for liking it, Liss and mathematicscore.
ReplyDeleteI still need to write the Foreword to MM Archives Vol. 7. (I haven't forgotten!)
