It's been a good year for me: we lost LBC, but the discovery of Herring & Robinson replaces them with (for me) an even better alternative.

I don't have a record of what I had bound exactly when, but I think I will have had over 50 volumes done in 2010, when I get back the seven volumes that are now at the bindery next week.
Highlights include a Silver/Bronze Age Spectre volume, the third and final volume of Flaming Carrot, three-volume sets of Astro City, Warlord, and Invaders, two compilations of Milo Manara graphic novels, three volumes (of a projected five) of Grendel, several more JSA-related books, two-volume sets of Iron Fist, Alpha Flight, Hate, John Carter, and Finder, and a lot of done-in-ones, including some Bronze Age goodies.

I still haven't followed up on continuing my bound set of Menomonee Falls Gazettes and Guardians--I'm determined to do several more volumes of that set early in 2011.

I took a lot of books with me to both WonderCon and San Diego (my first convention attendances as a fan rather than a dealer in decades), and scored dozens of creator signatures and a few sketches in them.

I haven't been very active since late Summer, partly because I'm very busy with something else that may wind up taking a lot of my attention for some time. But I've got a lot of stuff prepped and ready to go, title pages and all, and more that's very close to that stage.

Ah, the meek. Playing the long game.
Sneaky bastards.
