Commission

Collector chapter drop — numbered saga comics

A completed chapter released in a short numbered run. You either underwrite the drawing or buy a number once the inks exist.

Pile of comic issues with illustrated covers, standing in for numbered saga editions

Drops exist so a chapter can be shared without pretending it is infinite. The ‘Stolen hammer’ run was twenty numbers; Priya Nair’s still for 07 keeps a gold-leaf crack that also lives in the file. If no chapter is open, we will not invent a fake waiting list. Underwriters sit earlier, help pick the beat, and take a low number; purchasers arrive when the inks are already honest.

What this commission covers

Who it is for

Collectors who want a shared chapter rather than a private one-off, and patrons willing to underwrite a chapter so a small run can exist.

The finished piece

A numbered copy of a finished saga chapter — for example the theft of the hammer — with the same motion loop for every number and unique border wear on the still.

How it is delivered

Assigned number, NFT comic transfer, and a still that carries the same border marks as the file

Preparation

Say whether you wish to underwrite (you help choose the chapter, we quote a patron figure) or to buy a number when the run is announced.

Limits we keep

Edition size is fixed before minting. We do not add copies because a marketplace looks hungry. Sold-out numbers are not redrawn.

Next step

Write to the studio naming underwrite or purchase. We will say which chapter is open, if any.

Included

  • Place in a published short run
  • Matching still with the edition’s border
  • Transfer of that number’s NFT comic

Not included

  • Custom pose changes to a drop chapter
  • Promise of resale price
  • Artist proofs beyond those listed

How the work proceeds

  1. Chapter chosen and edition size locked.
  2. Studio completes the page as for a sequence.
  3. Numbers assigned in the order deposits arrive.
  4. Mint and transfer; stills posted or collected in Milton.
