The Football Final: a personalized comic book gift
Some people watch the final. Your hero plays in it, scores in it, and somehow ends up arguing with the referee about it. This custom comic book drops the person who still replays their Sunday league goal in slow motion onto the biggest pitch of their life, with their face on every panel from the tunnel walk to the last-minute penalty. It suits the friend who owns three jerseys, explains the offside rule at weddings, and has never once admitted to a foul.

Questions about this comic
Can the team wear the colors of my hero's real club?
Yes, describe the colors in the 'anything special' field and the story and art can work them in. Real club names, crests, sponsors and logos cannot appear, so the team plays under an invented name that any fan will still recognize by the shirts.
Can I add teammates from their Sunday league side?
Yes. Mention the teammates, the coach or even the team dog in your answers, with nicknames and that legendary own goal everyone still brings up, and they can show up in the story alongside your hero. The story ideas we write for you are built around those details.
