I went to see the AF 15 art at the LOC during the first few months they had it. I asked the curator Sarah Duke what other Marvel art they had and the told me there wasn't that much but they had a "few" Marie Severin pages. Mind you that was back in 2008...so maybe there has been a snowball effect since then.

I made my own machine, I wanted a cocktail arcade table type which could easily be transported from room, this one has 128 classic arcade games from the early 80's... it's a lot of fun and doesn't take too much toom. It's standing next to my Spider-man pinball machine in my man cave, but can be rolled into the kid's rooms very quickly. It would have looked neater if I had sunk the electronics lower into the cabinet, but I also have side-buttons to play virtual pinball and speakers and my woodworking skills are not good enough to make a perfect template using just hand tools and I wanted a little ledge to rest my arms on as well

Richard Rae returns ? Watched the documentary, highly enjoyable...thought I saw a fake Dr. Seuss sketch and heard something about fake Peanuts strips.

Thoroughly enjoyed the podcast (again!) Felix. Very happy you started doing this, like some of you I also prefer the "collectors just chewing the fat" episodes, especially as I'm one of those sad specimens that doesn't know a single other person who also collects art. In fact the only time I ever get some facetime with other OA collectors is when I go to the US to bum around SDCC or Chicago Comic Con. And I think Andy "forgot" to add the juice to his highest purchase ever just because he didn't want to psychologically deal with the bigger number . I don't really subscribe to the notion that people at Heritage forget to add the buyer's premium to their bids, as it's there right in front in them each time they bid. How someone can forget a few thousand in "juice" is beyond me. Whenever I make a bid I just mentally add 20%. And yes I know it's 19,5% but with shipping and bank fees it might as well be 20. Keep up the good work, I don't care if the collectors are BSDs or sketch-hounds, each of them has a few interesting stories and I've learned more from the podcast than I have in my 10 years+ of collecting.

You know like Michael Jackson not really being "Bad"

I believe Mignola Hellboy also could be in a higher tier... considering not a lot of truly A-pages come to market, B-pages, or A- pages have been selling around the $12K mark for almost 18 months now. Last month a panel page from Almost Colossus went for $15,535.00 and in 2017 quite a few sold between $10K and $14K

Call Bill Cox and ask him to set up the software so animated gifs can be put in the comments section. I'm sure traffic will spike.

Great page congrats, when someone asks why Ditko is better on ASM than Romita, just show them that first panel. Now that's a "Spider-man" pose.

Wow a Heritage auction that has finished for me just before midnight, won two out the three pages I was interested in and I'll actually manage to get a decent amount of sleep this time around. So glad my stuff came up early during "Barry Time"

Would have caught on quicker if you had used an animated gif.

These things usually last till around 4 am my time... it's brutal, especially during the time I was hunting after Wood and Williamson pieces.

Get some EC or Prince Valiant art and you'll agree that bigger is better

I love those.

Congrats ! I loved that book and was delighted there was a page out there that I could vote on

Thanks to everyone involved in setting this up. Just spent over an hour looking at all the stuff that got a lot of votes...such cool stuff out there. Also delighted that the two pieces I entered got 4 and 5 votes... really delighted with this result. It was my first time participating and I'm 100% sure I will be back next year.

After 15 years on the boards and 10 years on CAF, Brian's enthusiasm made me activate my Lowry for the first time, I'm a pretty low key collector and don't put everything on CAF, and when I do I rarely post about it, but I've decided to be a little bit ore pro-active from now on and am on board for the first time Anyway, I only put up two pieces... slowly working up to 2020 when I might dare to put up...gulp... 5 of them. Anyway hope these two put a smile on a few faces somewhere out there.

Dunno about that, I mainly collect EC art and nostalgia plays no part there at all, the company was long defunct before I was even born, and aesthetics wise, it's pretty hard to beat or even equal Al Williamson and Wally Wood.

Guess this is the end of this topic and the 7-year tradition. It was fun while it lasted, but back in 2011 we had 15-20 members participating, I guess I'm the last one left, so I'll turn off the lights. total for 2017 is 1305 comics read. By far the lowest amount of comics I've read in a year in a long time, I must have been crazy back in 2013 I'll still continue reading comics and lots of them, and will be keeping track, but I won't be posting the details any more either in the new year, it was a great idea and it motivated me to read 14292 comics over a period of 7 years, but it has run it's course. Anyway I already posted January through June, so here's July through December 2017 July 143 comics Bane Conquest 1 Black Bolt 1+2 Black Road 10 Britannia - We Who Are About to Die 2 Bullseye 4+5 Colossi 2+3 Comic Book History of Comics 5+6 Copperhead 13+14 Daredevil 20+21 Dark Days The Forge 1 Darkness Visible 4 Darth Vader 1 Dead Inside 5 Defenders 1 Dept H 14 Failsafe 2 Faith 11+12 Gamorra 5 Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout 1 Guardians of the Galaxy Mother Entrophy 1-5 Hadrian's Wall 7 Harrow County 23+24 Hawkeye 6+7 Heathen 4 Hellboy into the Silent Sea Highlander the American Dream 4 I am Groot 1 Invincible 36 Iron Fist 2-4 Jimmy's Bastards 1 Jessica Jones 8-9 Kill or be Killed 9 Kill the Minotaur 1 Kingpin 4+5 Lobster Johnson - The Pirate's Ghost 03 Lucifer 18 Luke Cage (2017) 1 Magnus (2017) 1 Misfit City 1 +2 Moon Knight 14 Motor Girl 6 Noble 1+2 Normandy Gold 1 Nova 6 One more Year (226 pages counts as 10 comics) Old Man Logan 23-25 Outcast 27+28 Paper Girls 14+15 Pestilence 1+2 Powers 8 Predators Hunters 1 Rapture 1 Rebels These Free and independent states 2+3 Reborn 6 Red Team Double Tap 9 Redneck 2 Regression 1+2 Ringside 10 Rocket 1 Rough Riders - Riders on the Storm 3 Samaritan Veritas 1 Saucer State 1 Secret Empire 1 Seven to Eternity 5+6 Stained 1+2 Stargate Atlantis Hearts and Minds 1+2 Sons of Anarchy - Redwood Original 10-11 Sons of the Devil 12-13 Spirit Hunters 6-8 Spread 21 Star Wars - Rogue One Adaptation 2-3 Star wars 31-32 Star Lord Annual 1 Suicide Squad 17-19 Thanos 7-8 The Black Hood 5 Dark Tower The Way Station 1 The Hellblazer 10 The old guard 4 The Punisher 12 The Visitor How and Why he stayed 4 Uncle Scrooge 26 X-o Manowar (2017) 3 The Theory of Chaos (122 pages counts as 5 comics) The Damned 1 The Normals 1 The Walking Dead 167+168 There's Nothing here 1+2 The Divided States of Hysteria 1 Uber Invasion 6 Ultimates2 7 Winnebago Graveyard 1 August 38 comics A fractured Mind 1 Aliens Dead Orbit 3 Aliens Defiance 12 All-New Guardians of the Galaxy 3-6 All-New Guardians of the Galaxy annual 1 Alters 6 America 3-5 American Gods Shadow 4+5 Astro City 45 BPRD The Devil You know 1 Bane Conquest 2-4 Bankshot 1 Black Bolt 3 Britannia - We Who Are About to Die 3-4 Calexit 1 Daredevil 22-24 Darkness Visible 5-6 Darth Maul 4+5 Darth Vader 2-4 Defenders2-3 Dept H 15-16 September 134 comics Diablo House 1 Failsafe 3 Generation Gone Hadrian's Wall 8 Hawkeye 8-9 Highlander the American Dream 5 Hillbilly 7 I am Groot 2 Invincible 137 Iron Fist 5-6 Jimmy's Bastards 2 Jessica Jones 10-11 John Carpenter's Tales of Sci-fi 1 Jupiter's Legacy 5 Kill or be Killed 10 Kill the Minotaur 2 Lobster Johnson Mangekyo Lucifer 19 Luke Cage 2-3 Magnus 2 Marvel Universe Guardians of the Galaxy 20 Millennium The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo 1 Motor Girl 7 Normandy Gold 2 Old Man Logan 26 Pestilence 3 Predator Hunters 2-4 Rapture 2 Rebels These Free and independent states 4-5 Rednecks 3-7 Regression 3 Rough Riders - Riders on the Storm 4-5 Samaritan Veritas 1-3 Sacred Creatures 1 Secret Empire 2-7 Seven to Eternity 7-8 Skybourne 4 Sons of Anarchy Redwood Original 12 Stained 3 Star Wars - Rogue One Adaptation 4-6 Star Wars 33 Stargate Universe 1 Suicide Squad 20-22 Superb 1 Tales of Suspense 1-36 Thanos 9 The Forevers 4 The Hellblazer 11-12 The New Gods Special 1 The Normals 2-3 The Old Guard 5 The Punisher 13 The Visitor How and Why he stayed 5 The Walking Dead 169-170 The Life and Times of Wallace Wood (255 pages counts as 11 comics) There's Nothing there 3 Uber Invasion 7 Ultimates 2 8-9 Unholu Grail 1 Winnebago Graveyard 2 X-O Manowar 4 Oktober 121 comics All-New Guardians of the Galaxy 7-10 America 6 American gods Shadow 6 Astro City 46-47 B.P.R.D.

I have no idea, but after reading that entire manifest, I feel like buying some books from Cal myself, just to see what all the fuss is about...or maybe watch a Klaus Kinski movie, haven't decided yet.

This one. The OA page was on CAF for about 3 months, almost ten years ago but the original owner took it down soon afterwards and I've never seen it since.

This looks like a great tool...congrats on making it happen. I did run into a little snag, when I use "Search for keywords" I typed in "Kirby" (no parentheses ) I then used the "Exclude keywords" field and added "Rip". When the search was done I was still seeing Rip Kirby pieces and the word "Rip" in the Exclude keywords field was automatically replaced by "Kirby". So it changed to looking for "Kirby" and excluding "Kirby" (but still gave me all Kirby related artwork)

I love Peter Bagge... great pickup.

Someone should fix you.

Yep, I was the one that wore a different Ani Difranco t-shirt 5 days in a row.
