Cloth-bound books stacked on a table beside loose pages

Commission

Wirecore archival folios

House-made archival folios with a sewn wire core, sized for a Scarlet Witch run you already own, so the hex issues sit in reading order without PVC.

Who it is for

Collectors who read their chaos-magic runs and want them housed, not entombed in mismatched bags.

What you leave with

A named folio: acid-free boards, inert sleeves, wire-core binding that opens flat on a table.

Included

  • Measurement of your actual copies, including polybag variants
  • Cloth or buckram cover in scarlet, ink, or cream
  • Hand-lettered spine with title and year span

Not included

  • Binding original covers through the comic’s own staples
  • Restoration of missing pages
