Yes, won't someone think of the poor dealers

I am a fan of Miller, been a bidder on Dark Knight pages and read the books when they were published. I should have been clearer in what I was saying I just didn’t want to offend the buyer or the consigner as I was talking about Batman’s arms

Is $228,000 very high for the Dark Knight page for a silhouette of a badly drawn Batman? That image looks very strange to me

50k!! Seems like a bargain https://www.comicartfans.com/gallerypiece.asp?piece=1834030 sold in Feb for about 15k

I have a swipe of an FF cover

so did anyone here win the Space Ace piece then? https://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=1644543&GSub=207588

Wow, the entire Ditko Strange Tales 117 story just appeared on the next Heritage auction

Sold for $288,000, surprising in my opinion.

Here at the auction as well and I agree that is what appeared to happen.

Reviewing the prices, I wished I stayed awake to bid, excluding the higher end pieces, a lot of prices seemed on the low side.

I am grateful to have one, was hoping to upgrade but I guess that is unlikely now.

So the Cabal exists then? Always suspected there was a UK chapter, I figured you, the guy outside of Tottenham Court tube station with the Golf Sale sign and the enigmatic Mr Melchior were all members...

Funnily enough a boardie won this artwork http://www.comicartfans.com/gallerypiece.asp?piece=1489633

Congratulations! I managed to sleep all night without going for a pee so it was a good day/night for us both.

Ok let's have a crack at this and estimate using Fermi's method for the US only. (All numbers are pulled out of my ****hole) 323 Million people in the US Let's say 1 in 1000 people collect comics so 323,000 comic collectors in the US. (Given that Batman can sell 100,000 copies that is probably not unreasonable) Top 1% of US Income ($456,000 annually) 3230 comic collectors in the 1% income bracket. 1 in 10 Comic collectors may be art collectors (it is more niche) 323 people. People able to spend a million a year let's say 10% so 32 people. There were 13 people in the Cabal photo, and the one taking the photo........

I bid a few times on the Return of the Jedi 30th Anniversary poster but didn't want to pay £11,000 in total for it including Buyers Premium. I was more shocked by the Harry Potter signed poster that went for £7800 as I was willing to bid it up to £2000 as a present for my wife.

The worst cover from the story, however more may come up given the number of pieces it looks like Eric has released, so should one bid now or wait for a better one that may or may not appear, but I cannot work out why you would only sell one of the 6 covers.

Thanos, first solo story, but he is not on the cover

Drugs?

$8,365.00 for a Ditko drawing of 2 fish.

I know where that is and you'll have to wait in line for me as I have first rights of refusal if the owner sells. Btw the owner has owned this for 10 years and has never advertised it for sale

Too late

Does Walt not have this cover? He keeps the majority of his stuff.

add me as well
