    AMAZING EC original art coming to Ha.com in June 20th auction

    in Original Comic Art

    Posted

    I suspect this is from the Roger Hill collection, there is a great video which is attached to this auction which is a tribute to him. The Haunt of Fear #14 is my favorite horror cover...some great wally wood Galaxy art etc...just wow. What do you think that ec horror cover will bring. What is the record price for a EC horror cover, I know Russ Cochran sold one for 100K it was a crypt cover years ago???

    Rest in peace Bob Beerbohm.

    Why don't you, Mitch? You were quite close to him and his inner circle, weren't you? 

    never had any contact with jean or anyone on that issue, I just knew about it and talked to Bob, I can speculate as to what probably happened but since I do not know for sure, it would be improper to give my best guess.

    Bob was told he had 6 months to a Year to live - he died 4-6 weeks later - so he didn't have time to get things in order.

    Did Bob ever settle things with Jean? There seems to be some conflicting information that he did or didn't in the late 2010's.

     

    someone should contact her, she might be able to make a claim against the estate. I do not know how or if this was settled?

    Ebay Acquires Goldin

    Watch for a possible run at CGC with E-Bay and PSA...here is some food for thought

    1-PSA/Ebay buys CBCS and then intergrades with existing platforms...least likely

    2-PSA/Ebay create a third comic book grading company...most likely

    3-CGC buys CBCS and merges them and head off PSA/Ebay...less likely, but in my opinion the best option for CGC to keep market dominance.

    4-HA and CGC merge...possible with blackstone taking some equity in HA....longshot

     Look for the pot to be stirred up in 2025!!!! 

    5-A comic book storage company is created by THEM - where you buy the GA book on Ebay  raw and with a click of a button they send it to PSA and then after grading, they store it for you and put it up on Goldin auctions or back on E-bay as a graded book all at a big discount if you use all services at once, you can buy it from them  in auction and then keep it stored and auction it with other auction houses who accept the storage as ownership  or back on e-bay...the cycle never ends, except the PSA and Ebay win big time.....

    your thoughts on this take!!!

    In Ditko's early 2000 essay's he wrote of how Stan asked him to do the Hulk for TTA. He wrote that he came up with Major Talbot, the reason for the change being 'anger', the Leader, etc.

    amazing that it takes years and years for the truth to really come out....please keep up this thread and post more.... every book seems to increase our shared belief that it was a one sided team up.

    Infantino was a master cover artist.

    Carmine Infantino and Gil Kane gave Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko a run with creating new villains in the 1960s. I say they finished a close second to the duo of Kirby and Ditko when it came to creating new villains.

    I would second that, especially MIS
