The Comic Book Presser

The Comic Book Presser At The Comic Book Presser, we offer a Professional Comic Book Pressing Service. Our goal is to maximize the quality and VALUE of your comic collection.

At The Comic Book Presser, my goal is to improve the quality and VALUE of your comic collection. I can work on a single book or an entire run. I have experience removing moisture waves, spine rolls, non-color breaking creases, bends, dents, writing imprints, dry cleaning and many other defects. I am currently working on books from all ages - Golden Age, Silver Age, Bronze Age, Copper Age and Modern. I grew up reading and drawing comics every chance that I had. I have always loved this amazing hobby as an art form and years later also from a collector and dealers point of view. Through the years, I have found pressing and cleaning comics brings all of these interests together and is an artistic release in its own right. While a pressing out a few dents and wrinkles is exciting to see the book improved and value gained, what excites me the most are the books that truly need a resurrection. Bringing books that are water damaged or have a horrid spine roll and wrinkled pages back to life is what I really enjoy working on. When you send me your books, I will take the time and care needed to achieve the best possible condition and outcome. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Communication Design and a Master of Fine Arts degree in Animation. When I'm not pressing or reading comic books, I am usually animating these days. I have been animating as a career since 1998 and have been working in the video game industry from 2008. I started out at Neversoft Entertainment on the Guitar Hero franchise where I worked on five fast paced games. I am currently a Senior Animator at Infinity Ward working on my third Call of Duty game.

Our first newsletter is coming soon!

We’re kicking things off with How to Spot A Spine Roll.

What actually makes a spine roll a spine roll? How can you quickly check for one? And how do you tell the difference between a true spine roll, a long-box dent, or a miscut?

We’ll also take a look at whether a spine roll can be corrected, with examples from books we’ve worked on.

A Personal One From My Collection!

I bought this copy of Spider-Man: Hooky when it originally came out and later had it signed by the legendary Bernie Wrightson at a convention in Ohio.

After working on the cardstock cover a few times, it was pretty exciting to see a 9.6 come back from CGC!

JSA Authentication for the win!

Here is a video I made of an Actions Comics 31. Golden Age spine-rolls can be intense but I feel like this one really had a transformation.

Action Comics 31 - Before & After

Golden Age comics require patience, experience, and a careful touch. It’s always rewarding to see how much a book from this era can improve.

A little something different from comics today!

After years of working on this project, I’m incredibly excited to finally share 1001 Threads of Mizan, the game I’ve been working on as Lead Narrative Animator.

It was recently revealed at Gamescom Opening Night Live, and I’m really proud of what our team has created.
