  1. I will also add that I did this to help support her as an artist.  Right now , even as you questioned, was this due to relation with Frank Frazetta, She has a bit to overcome with that legacy being the benchmark to which she will be compared due to that relation. It is still early in her career and I am curious what "her preference/ style " will evolve into . 

    Sure I would love to see similarly to Frank . Yes I would love for her to do a Frank tribute series like Vampirella #1 , Creepy, Conan, Death Dealer, Blazing Combat, etc. What I am really interested in will be what she evolves into on her own . What things will be just hers. You get the idea. 

    I just believe several of the artists, especially those living in the shadow of greatness need support and to be given the chance to find their own style and success.  

  2. It was more of an impulse.  I like Red Sonja, and Mars Attacks.  I definitely LOVE Frank Frazetta. When I saw CGC announcement of the in house signing I looked at what covers she had done and saw these . Which led to the subsequent impulse purchase.  Really happy with how they turned out . She signed in the color I requested. I think they look really good. I know these are not everyone's cup of tea, but they have a classic feel with a modern twist. Thank you for the comment !

    This is a beautiful copy! I don't think I've seen a 9.8 that didn't have a top spine corner tear that appears very common with this issue. Congratulations on your most recent submission, you really captured Big Foot, the Loch Ness Monster and a chupacabra! 

    A lot of the later printing tend to have those issues as well as color rub or widening staple holes . I was very happy with how this one presented raw and was hoping for a real elusive 9.9+ but knew better. :roflmao:

    Thank you.

    How do they know if the pages are white if its polybagged or sealed up?

    They have to be opened prior to submission.  Any poly bagged books must be removed or they will and if they do it you may not get the bag or any other contents back. 

    They just note on the label any books that were distributed in sealed bags.

    They announced two shows up here at Jones Beach in Wantagh on Long Island.  A certain 'someone' does not want to go to any live shows this summer.  :( 

    And I am not going without her... I was offered an extra ticket from friends or to come party with them... but ... not going without a certain someone. 

     

    I also declined to do Phish as that will just be a mess on the beach in Jersey.  I have seen them 30+ times.  I don't think I am ready to do shows on the actual beach with people all over me in a crowd lol. 

    I completely understand.  I too have missed live music, but at the same time right now may not be the best for several reasons. I am sure with things just opening back up for a lot of people,  the shows will be crazy. ( and not in a good way)
