Nope, Thanos' sunken face in the 3rd panel put me off that page.

Yup it was this preceding page; bidding hit $3.55k a couple times but didn't meet reserve.

Thanos & Warlock

There was a nice selection of Kirby Marvel in this auction; the Thor stuff performed solidly.

Fantastic round-up of February's top eBay performers! https://www.comicart.tips/ebay-original-comic-art-top-10-feb-2019/

Enjoyed Francesco's inaugural blog auction report on the recent HA auction https://www.comicart.tips/comic-art-auction-report-heritage-feb-19/

$8-9k would've been reasonable

Hey Dave I’d describe it as “large-paneled”. IMO a “splashy” page has to contain a dominating image occupying a majority of the surface area. This 3-panel page, without said dominant image, doesn’t quite qualify. There have been several public sales of Lim panel pages between $7-8k (some of which were decidedly mediocre items). So $10.8k isn’t a huge leap for a piece of this quality, and follows the trajectory of lesser pages moving up in the mid 4-figure range. The recent impressive sales of those early-2000s Thanos covers on HA could be a signal that market is moving up again

Lim panel pages have also entered 5-figure territory: https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/ron-lim-and-joe-rubinstein-infinity-gauntlet-6-story-page-8-thanos-adams-warlock-and-doctor-strange-original-ar/a/7204-93097.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515

The last Big Wow! ComicFest was in 2015. As Steve mentioned in our interview, he then took a few years off before starting the current Lake Como Comic Art Festival.

See “Artist representation”. The link to Big Wow Art has been there all along.
