Sad to hear. Someone should tell the Dragon Con folks that comics are popular these days. They seem to have less comics focus every year. I'll definitely try to hit the Saturday panel. Sounds like a cool one.

I don't have any Kirby or Eisner art, but I'll definitely stop by and check it out. There's always some amazing pieces up for display.
On a related note, will there be another Original Art panel at Dragoncon this year? I think last year's may have been the first time they had one and I enjoyed the discussion.

Very cool story. Too bad you weren't able to come home with one, but I imagine it would make for tense transportation home, assuming you flew there.

Plus I feel like this cover gets an extra bump because it's so much nicer looking than the interiors. If Kubert did the interiors of this issue as well as the cover I'd imagine they'd be going for 4-5x what they're going for today.
Agreed completely. Now pages from 267... That's another story. Some beautiful stuff there.

How does it affect the value of a first appearance page when that first appearance page did not appear first?
Gambit first appeared in Uncanny X-Men Annual #14 in July 1990. Then he (later) appeared in Uncanny X-Men #266 in August 1990.
I don't think it matters much in this case. It was really just a scheduling mistake by Marvel at the time. X-Men 266 is the first chronological appearance, and was definitely intended to come out first. It may boost the value of the Annual's cover a bit, but I doubt it would ever come close to the price tag of the 266 cover.

Really like the Ditko. It's very Ditko and very late 60's. I think the last panel especially seems to be more politically-minded Ditko, and seems like it would be at home in Mr. A.

Count me among those who buy quite a bit for the writer as well. And even the same writer as you. The art needs to be there for the perfect piece as well, but I've bought many pages because a specific piece of dialogue or narration had such an impact on me. This page, for example, is decent art-wise. But the text sends shivers down my spine every time I read it. Helps that it was the first book by Alan Moore that I ever read, but I value the impact of the story just as much as I do the art itself.
