    I waited to post till after the auction to be fair to those bidding on it. Two nice pages from Byrne historic Galactus story just ended, they sold as a pair for a even 10k. Seemed low to me... any thoughts? Here's the link to the completed auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fantastic-Four-244-pgs-4-5-Galactus-1982-Signed-art-by-John-Byrne-/362030038865?hash=item544aabff51:g:LZYAAOSw3h1ZXXcZ

    Mike thanks for uploading all those killer photos (109 pics) on CAF: http://www.comicartfans.com/galleryroom.asp?gsub=11513 Congrats on such a cool and successful event, I now have to order one of those programs!!! It must be a trip to see your collection so nicely displayed and filling up all that space in the gallery! Does this event plant the seed for the "Mike Burkey's AMAZING SPIDER-MAN Museum"? Steve

    Appreciate all the photos Mike, it looks like a good time was had by all. Glad the Romitas had a chance to enjoy the heartfelt appreciation of John's fans. He's an incredible artist and deserves every compliment! You're a good man Mr Burkey!!

    What a tangled mess we find ourselves in while acquiring pages we really covet, sorry for your 2002 experience. The waiting for a deal to unwind itself to a final conclusion can be painful. So happy that you eventually pushed through the mess to get your page. I suppose at the end of the day it's what art brings the biggest feeling of joy and satisfaction is the most important. With the realization that the quest is next to impossible, the trading of these pages for ones that are more impactful to you makes total sense. Steve

    Mike, thanks so much for documenting this event for those of us who can't make the trip! I can't wait to see the video. I'd love to hear what Mr. Romita has to say -what a great contribution he made to the field of comics! Steve

    Scott, If ever there is a radio play of the Jack Kirby story, I want you to be the voice of Jack. Based on the Kirby interviews I've heard online, you've nailed both his voice and personality! Thanks for sharing your recollections and thanks to Felix for conducting the interview, that was great fun! Steve

    FS on Ebay '78 Chaykin/Austin Superboy 240 pg 12 I told a friend I would spread the word about this nice vintage Howard Chaykin inked by Terry Austin example. It should be a bargain, at much less than say a Byrne/Austin example from '78 ; ) Here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SUPERBOY-and-LOSH-240-pg-12-NR-Art-by-Howard-Chaykin-Terry-Austin-1978-/272602542777?hash=item3f7860b2b9:g:kvUAAOSwB-1Y1I9V Worth clicking to see a nice big scan of Terry's razor sharp inks! Starting price $570.01 -No Reserve. Word spread, Steve
