Field notes
From the recap box to the plate mark
Practical notes written in the Wentworth studio. They are about origin issues, not about “collecting mindsets.”
-
What we count as an Avengers origin issue
Not every first appearance is an origin. Here is how the Wentworth ledger decides which sequential stories enter a collectible drop.
-
Why the splash still goes to paper
The NFT comic is the sequential issue. The paper proof is the splash you can hold. Neither replaces the other.
-
Edition size should follow the recap box, not the other way round
A 12-page joining origin does not need an edition of two hundred. A 22-page first assembly might.
-
Read the dummy before you reserve a number
An hour in the reading room is cheaper than an allocation you regret because the closing splash did not land.
