Why did I start Lionsbane Side Quest?
After attending comic cons and anime cons for over 25 years, I noticed something that always bothered me: fans would spend their hard-earned money and time meeting their favorite celebrities, only for their autographed posters and items to get damaged soon after. Posters got wrinkled where they were held, rolled up and bent, or simply lacked the protection they deserved.
That’s when I realized something was missing at these events. The main quest is getting the autograph—but every hero needs a side quest. Lionsbane Side Quest was born to give fans a way to protect and preserve those special memories for years to come.
What exactly does Lionsbane Side Quest do?
We provide protective top loaders and non-sealed slabs for trading cards, autographs, and collectibles. Our mission is simple: to give your prized items a level of protection to make it home in safety.
We’re here for collectors who want their items safe, display-ready, and preserved, whether it’s a signed trading card, a poster, or any other con treasure.
Do you grade or authenticate items?
No. Unlike PSA, Beckett, or CGC, we do not provide grading or authentication. Instead, we focus only on protection and presentation. Many collectors don’t want to risk a low grade on a sentimental or autographed item—they just want it safe. That’s where we come in.
Who is this service for?
- Fans who want to protect autographed posters, prints, and cards.
- Collectors with sentimental or one-of-a-kind items that don’t need grading.
- People who want display-worthy casing without waiting months for grading turnaround times.
Where can I find Lionsbane Side Quest?
Right now, we launch primarily at comic cons and anime conventions—live at the heart of fandom where the need is greatest. As we grow, we plan to expand our online store.
You can find us online at lionsbane.store for updates, future service launches, and information about our convention appearances.
Why should I protect my autographs and collectibles?
Because damage happens fast—creases, smudges, bending, fading. Without protection, that once-in-a-lifetime autograph can lose its magic (and its value). Our casings help keep your collectibles safe, flat, and display-ready.
What makes Lionsbane Side Quest different?
We’re fans first. We’ve been in the convention scene for decades, and we know how much those moments matter. Our mission isn’t to assign numbers or “value” to your memory—it’s to preserve it. Every autograph tells a story, and we want yours to last.
How much does it cost?
Pricing varies depending on the item and casing type, but we strive to keep it affordable for our fans. Our services are designed to be con-friendly and collector-friendly. Exact pricing will always be posted at our booth or available online as we expand.
What’s next for Lionsbane Side Quest?
The adventure is just beginning! Right now, our focus is conventions, but the future will bring:
- New casing formats for larger posters and collectibles.
- Collaborations with artists, vendors, and guests to help fans protect their treasures immediately after signings.
