The folks that ripped off Nintendo and Valentino both deserve to burn.
Doesn’t make that page worth 1 penny more, IMO.
I was just throwing it out there as a theory as to why younger collectors (under 30) would even know about this character let alone offer to pay thousands for a page.

What lawsuit? Googling didn't bring up anything.

Try searching “Shadowhawk SNES” or “Shadowhawk Rose Colored”. This company released a cartridge of a prototype SNES game and Valentino sued them for millions. About 30 copies were sold and I have to admit the packaging looks pretty cool.

I meant no disrespect but was just dumbfounded by the starting price. I hope you get what you are looking for, is it really close to 10K or is that just a super best case scenario? I just got to know.
No worries, I’ve pointed out auctions myself that I thought were high. The BuyItNow is best case, about double the highest offer so far.
I do get the nostalgia draw to the page, I remember picking this book off the shelf as a teen. In a few of the offers I had received before the auction, the collectors mentioned that they collect early Image art. I didn’t know that was a niche of the hobby but apparently it is.

Yes the Shadowhawk auction is mine (not the Wizard of Oz but that is a cool page).
I just have to say that in the 3 months I’ve owned the art there is still a lot of love for Shadowhawk. One dozen offers became two dozen, higher and higher. I’m not sure if it’s the historical significance or the attention the character got with the Nintendo lawsuit.
I’ve decided to put it out there and see what happens. Worse case, it goes back into my collection until Image’s 30th anniversary.

Just my : maybe "Matt Webb" in his fanzine days ? Could coincide with his early artist years, in the 80's.
Ask him, maybe ? ( https://www.facebook.com/MATT-WEBB-Coloring-338474322908014/ )
Thanks for the tip! I messaged him and he confirmed it’s not him.

Valentino's artwork from SHadowhawk is very hard to find the FMV on. Lot of reason for that but people generally want his Guardians of the Galaxy work, there isn't that many ShadowHawk pages he worked on, and ShadowHawk has fallen out of people's memories. For example, I remember that in the last 24 months the "Secret Reveal" cover was sold through a private transaction. It failed to register a bid when it was offered on eBay. Weird for sure.
If you ever want to part with it send me a PM.
Thanks Lucky! I’ve received about a dozen offers with the two highest just shy of $3k. Still a lot of love for Shadowhawk! Not selling now though, maybe one day.

Recently acquired. I thought it was a splash from issue #2 but it’s actually from issue #1.
Any idea of the value?
