case study
From a flea-market stand to three mall stores.
A 5-year client relationship: logo, signage, ads and packaging that took Metropolis Comics & Anime from a single flea-market table to three physical locations — The Falls, Florida Keys Outlet and International Mall.

the challenge
A flea-market table needed to look like a real retailer.
Metropolis started as a single table selling comics and collectibles. To grow, the brand needed to read as trustworthy and established — before the store itself existed.
the strategy
Build retail-grade assets before retail-grade traffic.
We designed spot-gloss trading-card business cards, a 3D CNC-cut logo sign, and store lighting and counter design — so every touchpoint looked like a real shop, years before the first storefront opened.
the build
Then we kept building as they grew.
30+ Instagram ads, mall banners, a 3D-rendered posable model with printed figurines, and a Power Rangers promo animation followed as Metropolis expanded to The Falls, Florida Keys Outlet and International Mall.
the deliverables
What we made.

The team helped me grow from a small flea market stand to a full fledged physical store. We are now opening our 3rd location. We go to these guys for anything from logo, to signs, to event printing.
