        @3Draco I think a complete set. There is a fairly limited game set for each.

        RetroPie 4.8.4 • RetroArch 1.15.0 • Raspian OS • Pi 4B 8GB • WD 2TB SSD • SanDisk 512GB Extreme microSDXC UHS-I • SanDisk 256GB iXpand • Argon ONE M.2 Case • REiiE Keyboard • 8BitDo Pro 2 & Arcade Stick

          @3Draco I can supply a list of the games for each system for screenshots. I might even be able to get some screenshots. I'll have to check on that.

            Getting some screenshots from you would be great and makes it easier.

              @3Draco I’ll send over some screenshots and also how to set up the e-Reader in GBA.

                  @3Draco Are all/any of your additions in an updated version of the Comic Book Theme downloadable for the ES Emulationstation in Retropie?

                      Not downloadable from within retropie, but i have been trying to keep this fork up to date with changes in this thread:

                      https://github.com/dale-personal/es-theme-ComicBook

                      Also, I just added support for marquees. If your game lists have the marquee tag, you should see the image in place of the system banner logo.

                        Are you willing to make a PR so the theme is included in the es-themes ?

                          If i get some time its something i can look into it. I'm not sure how it would be received to include a derivative work when the original comic book theme is out there as well.

                            @koda9901 Have you tried submitting your changes to the original theme ?

                              @3Draco I like your stuff you have been making.
                              Have you tried to give the letters sharp edges as opposed to the round edges like how TMNTurtleguy's images?

                                I have not. I'm actually working on a fork of https://github.com/Zenjir0/es-theme-ComicBook by @Zenjiro in this forum, which is described as a hard fork of https://github.com/TMNTturtleguy/es-theme-ComicBook by @TMNTturtlguy

                                  @koda9901 Right it is a hard fork. The reason I did it was because the images were a low resolution and did not look good on modern systems. Really I would like for it to be more of a "Community Edition" where everyone can contribute to it. So calling it Comicbook-CE or something like that.

                                    @Zenjiro Yes, i know how he made the sharp edges but i dont have AI, on the other hand im also not good using Illustrator.

                                      @3Draco Feel free to message me on Discord if you want to collaborate. And I do have a tutorial on how to do it without Illustrator. Silent Tutorial Step by step is above here.
