I was happy to hear some love for the Rucka run on Wolverine!
Both companies have some great books, and some clunkers. Historically I am a Marvel guy, but DC has the crown with Detective for now. Maybe Hickman can change my mind soon.
That's fantastic, congratulations!
I'll definitely second RASL!
I'd also recommend...
Sweet Tooth
Winter World (just reprinted in a gorgeoud HC by IDW!)
American Flagg! (Political Sci Fi by Howard Chaykin)
Orbiter (My favorite Ellis Sci Fi)
That's Library Binding. They are quite good,something to keep in mind though, the $15 bind is the really basic, no frills option. If you want nicer lettering, head and tail bands, book ribbon etc. that all costs extra. Great option though!

I am a book binder and do a bunch of my comics into hardcovers. There are a bunch of pictures up here

This is a really good comic book binding forum, lots of info and drool worthy pictures.

I really enjoy the process of binding my stuff, but in the golden age of reprints, it seems like everything I decide to do gets nice special volumes right after I start mine (See Castle Waiting, American Flagg, Criminal etc. etc.) It allows you to put things together EXACTLY how you want though, which I find pretty valuable.
