Origin-issue drop allocation

Who it is for

Collectors who want a first-print origin issue rather than a later reprint of an Avengers ensemble story.

What you leave with

You leave with a numbered NFT comic copy of that origin issue, a matching paper proof signed by the sequential artist, and a written record of plate, page count, and drop position.

Scope

One origin issue per allocation. Ensemble first-team-up stories only — not solo character runs, variant covers sold without interiors, or reprint packs.

Included

• A reserved edition number inside the announced print of that origin issue
• The NFT comic file for the full sequential issue (splash, recap, interiors, and closing splash)
• A paper proof of the opening splash, printed on cream stock in the studio
• A provenance card naming artist, letterer, colourist, page count, and drop date
• A thirty-minute handover call or reading-room appointment to walk the issue page by page

Not included

• Later reprint drops of the same origin story
• Trading, listing, or resale on our behalf
• Framing, slabbing, or third-party grading
• Rights to reprint or adapt the sequential pages

How the work proceeds

1. You send the origin story you want (first Avengers assembly, a specific founder joining, or a named ensemble origin already on the ledger).
2. We confirm whether that issue is in an open drop, a forthcoming drop, or must be commissioned as a new origin issue.
3. You reserve a number. We hold it until the drop closes.
4. On close, we mint your copy, print the splash proof, and book the handover.

Before you write

Bring the issue number or origin moment you care about, and say whether you want a reading-room viewing in Wentworth or a remote handover. If you already hold an earlier origin issue from us, quote its edition number so we can keep the run consistent.

Limits we will not stretch

Drops close when the announced edition is filled. We do not enlarge an edition after close. UK collectors receive paper proofs by tracked post; overseas proofs ship at cost. We do not allocate more than two copies of the same origin issue to one household.
