Title: "House Ads" File
Post by: DennyWilson on March 11, 2010, 02:56:55 AM

Here's an idea - how about files for each company just featuring the house ads?

We do have archive so that would be kinda neat

I've always enjoyed looking at stuff like that. I don't know why but I thought it was cool looking at PeP comics and seeing an ad for Zip featuring the new hero The Web.

So if Dennys wants to make up a file we could put in the small press section

Not a bad idea - Let me see what I can come up with :)

I like this idea also.  It gives good insights into comics history.  However, the month, year, and company should be included as part of the ad's filename or as a note in the file itself for it to have any value.

I would assume it would be one .cbz or .cbr file but the individual pages should have such info on them

How do I make a .cbz/.cbr file?

Make a standard zip file then change the extesnsion from zip to cbz. You must have hide extensions turned off.

I just saw a nice two page one in Daredevil Battles Hitler/Daredevil Comics #1. I like that issue because it has crossover between different Lev Gleason characters.

Daredevil battles Hitler and DD battles the Claw have to fit somewhere in the best comics onsite here.

I really enjoyed them. I think Daredevil is highly unrated.

I have pea zip installed. I right click on the folder with the scans and do "make separate archive" easy as that. Not sure how others do it. On some you may have to open you zip program and point it to the folder you want zipped
