Flagship chapter

Commissioned artbook chapter

An original eight-to-sixteen-page Doctor Strange–inspired mystic-arts chapter, bound as a folio with cover plate, title spread, sequential pages, and colophon.

Who it is for

Collectors, independent comic editors, and private patrons who want a finished mystic-arts chapter rather than a single pin-up.

What you receive

A complete artbook chapter you can hold, read in sequence, and — if you choose — issue as a numbered NFT of the title spread.

Scope of a chapter

Cover plate, title spread, six to fourteen sequential pages, lettering layout, and a printed colophon naming the chapter, the earth-variant framing, and the edition size.

Included

Pencil layouts, inked pages, flat colour or limited palette as agreed, two revision rounds on layouts, one revision round on inks, print-ready files, and a hand-bound folio of the chapter.

Not included

Licensed Marvel characters drawn as official likenesses, full-run monthly series, animation, or merchandise manufacturing.

Who draws it

Drawn and lettered in the Bagendon folio room by the Codevault Base studio, with a named lead illustrator for each chapter.

How the chapter moves

Brief and reference sitting, thumbnail pass, tight layouts, inks, colour, lettering dummy, folio bind, optional NFT mint of the title spread through your chosen marketplace account.

Time on the table

Ten to fourteen weeks for an eight-page chapter; sixteen to twenty weeks for sixteen pages, depending on splash density and gold-leaf plates.

Where the work happens

Work is drawn at 36 Wood Lane, Bagendon. Progress proofs are sent as PDFs. The bound folio is collected in person or posted within Great Britain.

What to bring

Bring a chapter premise (earth-variant, antagonist, relic, or moral hinge), any existing character notes, and a preferred palette. Do not send copyrighted Marvel page scans to copy.

Limits we keep

We produce original sequences in the Doctor Strange mystic-arts comic tradition. We do not reproduce published Marvel issues or sell official licensed comics.

How we price it

From £4,800 for an eight-page chapter without gold leaf. Sixteen-page chapters and NFT editions are quoted after the layout pass.

Send a chapter brief through the enquiry form so we can judge page count and palette before a sitting.
