That Pollard piece looks amazing!!!

I've got a big itch to buy something, especially since no conventions, but haven't found the right piece yet.  Looking every day sadly enough.

Love that Death Lee piece.  Still trying to figure out why Frank Miller picked Ronin for his piece.  

very cool discovery!

wow, that's impressive.  And never knew about that function either!

wonder if anyone who has already bid on head sketches is aware of this and not re-thinking.  

curious to see how much detail he ends up putting in this commissions given the higher price.

hmmm...not familiar with the artist either.  Looks nice though.

The art Adams Death piece is amazing. 

Lee weeks have written some great stories especially the Spidey mini series

Interesting, wonder what just headshots will do to the bidding price.  

Anyone else surprised at how low the Adams Doom piece went for.

Frank Miller will be doing a piece.

really curious to see how this turns out and how much detail he will be putting into it.

Sorry for your loss David.

wonder what all these major con cancellation will do to sales for OA.  People have all this money saved for using at conventions like SDCC (hotel, airflight, etc).  wonder if they will redirect all those funds to OA now.

congrats, some great pieces you own!

Instead of focusing on the image, focus on the deliberate omission of the watermark. That disclosed your ownership of the photo, and the omission of it was an unauthorized misuse of what you owned by altering the photo. As such, I think you have the right to insist your ownership of the photo be acknowledged. That won’t get you damages, but it should get you at least an apology and correction.

I think this is the biggest point.  You had it marked and they deliberately cropped around it so they knowingly saw the mark and decided to ignore reaching out or doing the right thing.  How do you react?  Not sure but I would agree that the bees and honey is probably the best route but make sure to note that the purposely do out your watermark and see what they come back with.

very nice, cool to see the progression.

Not directly but I do support Yeet Presents, a small comic book published every month or so

Not comic book artist related but I also support Troy McDevitt who is an amazing sculptor.  He is currently doing a line of Hulk busts based on various Hulk artist and he is perfectly capturing the look of the artists.

Missed out on this one, a stunning tribute to human imagination!   Do you think Byrne would do a recreation?   

Yes, but it will be $2,000 and he will only agree to use his signature stamper for it.

I have to admit,  I was a bit amused that a blank page from a She-Hulk comic book sold for $228 on CL recently.  It did have John Byrne's signature on it but there was literally nothing else on the page except the issue info on the top.    Loved the description in the auction :     Dimensions: The art has an approximate image area of 0" X 0".

Has there been anything else as random as this that sold?

For Hulk 1, I would buy it and have not problem keeping it away.

Art Adams is now doing the same thing through Jim Lee’s auctions. His selections, however, will be based on the most likes. That was posted this evening on Facebook.

 

Interesting.  Not sure if they will get to the Jim Lee price level but if he puts a lot of detail into them, they might get close.   Looking more forward to seeing what Art does have to say.  

This is an awesome thing they are doing to help keep the shops alive but wondering how long people will have this amount of disposable income in the current world situation.

If someone could post if the early Hulk pages still exist along with who owns them, where that person lives, and what times during the day they are not at home, I would appreciate it.

It would be great to have a list somewhere showing what pages are definitely know to exist.    Along with maybe artwork we know no longer exists.  Erik Larsen had that house fires years past and lost a lot of OA, not sure if it was ever documented what exactly he lost.

wow, that was a roller coaster of a ride of a story!

He says DC.

I get it but I'd rather see a mix too!

that's too bad.  Given his role, I guess it makes sense he has to stick with DC but I think there are a lot of people out there (like me) that don't collect anything DC, regardless of who is drawing it.
