My second one in less than a week!

OK. A few days ago I finally bought my first original art and was warned about how addicting it was to collect them.

Well I would now have to agree with those who warned me. I can see why original art is so intriguing to comic aficionados. I know that I wont be able to continue buying original art at the pace that I have been acquiring graded comics.

While I have been averaging over 175 graded comics a year (YIPES!) I will probably only be able to manage five or so original art pieces per year.

Nevertheless I have managed to acquire my second piece in less than a week. I just couldnt pass up on this one since it is from my all time favorite comic series which everyone by now knows is The New Mutants.

This particular piece of original art is from Issue 13 Page 2. It holds the first meeting and direct conversation between Magma (Amara Aquilla) and Professor X!

Being such a big New Mutants fan and just recently bitten by the O-ART Bug had me clawing after this one! I love it even though it doesnt have any real action going on in it. It is also signed by Tom Mandrake.

OFF AND RUNNING!!!!!!!
