The print quality was super crisp for my screentones and greys! I loved how vibrant the glossy cover was as well, and the quality was consistent throughout my order! I needed these books quickly for an event, and the MCE team was super proactive and reached out to help me save on shipping as the books were completed within a week! Will definitely be ordering again!

Ordered: Size: 8.268" x 11.693", Binding: Saddle Stitch, 48 BW pgs + Cover
MCE was recommended to me after my local Fedex/Kinkos couldn't even give me a proper quote on printing my book. I'm really glad I went with MCE because the quality and speed are amazing. The book builder tool they provide is perfect and intuitive, too. Printed out way better than I could have hoped for, and looks and feels like professional quality. The cost per book is also very friendly for small indie artists that need <50 copies. Fingers crossed my comic does well enough that I can order more from them!
