It is sad.

I’m going to look into the possibility of the public being able to view the art, hopefully you don’t need to take a course at Columbia just to see the art.

I was just reading an interesting article about collections after you die and they go into where all the ElfQuest art will end up.

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/30/style/collectors-estates.html?unlocked_article_code=Y2ksbVpJFv9Jr7aq1bg4qWjaJjSLWBZOE6c2xZDzlE3bvc5DmmBg26LT0RjHL-Y2kyTwpakGnEDitF3Rbcmkp1tznqHPCOLUCO8U6ngpZJQc6vpGEj_0-iJt71YzSLYe0vRhQgjLQhxWs-stM4dGNLgThbBteucGOamkZT4mY1lF8dZ45hBUM_NZe2isGvskLC5k3OYE2Y3QyP0IdGVThPNNN1-6XUY-BbvLbV30IEBagb1r8X8chXTDmLhRshzZKVVqFXeVsSFQvnOInVbAWYlSXGFAzq5hYYanZh0rqywQKj1c11stJu8aiuGSm1Q32VGHBHq0Q-m8Xg&smid=url-share

As others have suggested, Heritage, and if you can, wait until just before the movie comes out. Ride that marketing wave to the bank.

Here’s the best match I could find;

Dropping to $199 per page before I try posting elsewhere, thanks for looking.

Jeez sorry to hear. I sent 100+ pieces to ComicConnect in NYC last year and I was petrified of something similar happening and fought the urge to drive the pages in from Boston. As a practical matter, what happens now with Heritage? Do they pay you out on the appraised value you agreed to? 

I imagine this would all have to be covered under USPS insurance, Heritage never received the package.

Last week I saw a Facebook post or Tweet about “bricks” in the hobby, I can’t find it but could someone please explain what I’m missing?

What they say "that is my one true grail, I doubt I can pay you FMV for it but if you could see any way to help me acquire it I would be forever in your debt."

What they really mean "I have a sucker lined up to buy it but I would like to make more off it."

 

I accidentally won an early Image #1 splash for $400 (seller sold it as a page from issue #2), my inbox was flooded with those types of messages. 

I’m sure some of them were genuine, but others who had initially offered their absolute max kept coming back with an extra thousand, so you quickly start to realize they’re just looking for a deal.

Can anyone identify this page?

Someone reached out to me for help but  I thought it might be from Spidey Super Stories #24 but no luck, this page isn’t in there.

Someone really wants these pages this year... they have been way outside of the normal price range of Kirby's other DC titles

They went for more than double what I expected. I was hoping to add more Kirby pages to my collection but at these prices I’m going to have to stick with the two that I have.

These Kirby pages went for more than double that I expected;

So many Kirby pages to choose from, it’s hard to pick what to go after.

In terms of impact it’s not fair to pair any artist against Kirby. The man IS comics, more than anyone. He created multiple genres not to mention almost every major hero besides Batman & Superman.

So we are left to compare their styles and again it’s just unfair; drawing figures that went beyond basic anatomy and into forms that moved with the reader’s eye. Kirby was working on another level, he was that ultra rare genius like Mozart or Einstein.
