  1. The story (and additional photos) behind my 1974 San Diego Comic Con mustachioed Snoopy sketch is on ComicArtFans. https://www.comicartfans.com/gallerypiece.asp?piece=1634492
  2. Thanks for the leads, guys! I was aware of those already, but I'm thankful for all the help. It looks like I have located my desired Ditko page and have already paid for it. Once I receive it in the mail I'll post a pic and close the thread. Thanks!
  3. Ben Dunn came over once. He responded to a Craigslist ad for a Transformer toy I had listed. I played it cool until he was going out the door, "See you at the next comic con." He was a bit surprised. Couple days later he flipped the toy on eBay.
  4. Those really are what I'm angling for, especially the Charlton horror. Thanks for making it clear for me.
  5. Preference is around $3k - $4k. But willing to go up to $6,500 for the right page.
  6. That Captain Atom cover is quite nice. Ditko's style wasnt lost in Rocke's inks. But I'm sure that's a 5 figure piece which is more than I can do.
  7. You're right, there are. But most of them are already out of my range. The two that aren't were inked by someone else. Thanks for the heads up, though!
  8. I saw it on the Comic Art Fans site, but leaning towards something a little different. Thank you though!
  9. Bumpity bump. Do have trade offerings to entice: 2 Marie Severin watercolored E.C. prints from 70's, Bernie Wrightson Swamp Thing head shot (11x14) and 2 Lee Weeks Daredevil pages (with Punisher).
  10. Looking for a Steve Ditko penciled AND inked original art page. I am primarily considering 1960's to 80's Charlton pages as I'm likelier able to afford those. I can pay with Paypal. Thanks for your help! UPDATE: Found my Ditko page! Photo of it is on the 2nd page.
  11. My very first purchase off of eBay was the original Amazing Spider-man #1. I had just worked all summer of 1998 saving money for my freshman year of college when lo and behold I discovered eBay. The issue was purported to be in Very Fine condition and starting bid was $1,900. After some serious consideration and discussion with my two best friends, I took the plunge and submitted the winning bid. No Marvel chipping or writing. Really solid book. 3 years later I submitted it to CGC, came back an unrestored 4.0. I treasured it for an additional 3-4 years before selling it for $2,400. The buyer was super pleased and messaged me after receiving it felt it was at least a 5.0. One of my regrets, but at least I owned one.
  12. What do you guys and gals think about the lone Lee Weeks piece? Lee Weeks and Al Williamson Daredevil #300 Story Page 25 Original Art Did final bid price have more to do with the climactic scene in a notable Daredevil story arc? Or is Lee Weeks first run Daredevil art turning a corner?
  13. I grew up with Bagley, Larsen and McFarlane and really enjoyed their takes. But my love for Spidey hit another level when the black and white Marvel Essential books came out. Ditko was the master. After graduating high school in the late 90's, I made an Amazing Spider-man #1 my first purchase off Ebay after saving my pennies all summer (190,000 of them). CGC graded it a very solid 4.0 (no Marvel chipping or missing pieces). Wish I still had it ? But, hey, still have my original Spidey Essentials. Ditko gets my nostalgic vote.
  14. WTB: Bernie Wrightson Swamp Thing commission/portfolio original art Hello all. I'm looking for Bernie Wrightson Swamp Thing original art, specifically a commission-style piece that is inked. Not looking for the older published pages. I have limited wall space so just looking for one that "speaks" to me. I will pay the seller via PayPal. Thank you!
  15. Congrats on that dreamy Transformers lot find! I have been trying to stumble across something like that since I was a kid. Did you get them for an amazing price, market value, or somewhere in between?
  16. A bunch...around guide prices.....but well worth it as they are all usually over guide selling comics. I just can't fathom finding anything like that in the wild here in Texas. Nice find!
  17. Would you mind if I asked how much you paid for that haul?
  18. A very rare quality find for me at an antique shop (or anywhere for that matter). Paid $86 for this fair copy of Incredible Hulk #3. It's got a missing chunk on the back cover, but at least the front is mostly there and all 32 pages are present.
