Is this something people might want done? Is it something that has been done before?

That looks tremendous - I don't know if it's been done before but I would love to see more restoration work along these lines.
But why stop there? Why not use your exceptional talent to reinvent old characters and place them in new story settings?

Good questions. First, I'm not a good writer, to the point I'm offering a skill trade to writers, I will draw anything in return for turning my game mechanics something readable. Secondly, I'm an inker, I'm using the blurry images as pencils, basically. The two things are related, I don't have the right kind of imagination to write things or design things, but I know how things are supposed to look.
I'm going to keep at it, 'cause it's fun, but it takes me a a whole day to do a page, maybe 2 days. Got any pages you'd like done?

No, but there are a number of comics here that were originally saved in microfiche.
The word "microfiche" is based on the French word fiche, which means "index card". Microfiche is a piece of microfilm, typically 105mm wide which is cut to 148mm long or about 4" x 6".
Jacketed fiche, is a special kind of fiche that is made from 16mm wide microfilm roll film.
Maybe somebody on the site who is more familiar with individual issues than I am, could recommend a whole issue, something that we have only in that format, and something rare, and maybe you could convert the whole isssue. If you were willing, of course.
Nice Work.
