I know there are only around 14 graded 9.8s so it’s pretty rare in that grade . This one has a lot of room for growth imo . It’s a nice looking cover in the red and wraparound . Nice pick up

Subby1938 replied to Timely's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
That’s one of the holy grails of comics and most likely would never be sold publicly here . That usually would be sold in auction like heritage or comic link . You do know how valuable this comic is correct? In any condition -

Not sure if this question has been asked but if you have a golden age book with tape on it that does not look like old tape , is that considered restoration by CGC? -

Very nice . A tougher Subby for sure -
Museum grade blocks out 98% of UV on oil , marker , ink whatever is used really .I have a Bill Everett sketch from 1970 done in the day of primitive marker and paper quality and it’s holding up very well 50 years later! I also use acid free matte so I’m not too concerned because if it’s good enough for art galleries it’s good enough for me . You will pay higher amounts for these materials and obviously don’t display in direct sunlight

You and me both . I can’t even win low grade books prices are surging -
My first Timm piece . It’s one that has not been seen since around 2008. One his best Namor renders imo , I’m still hunting the full colour version as it’s a huge want for me being a fan of the character . Huge thanks to my friend on CAF Kent for helping me land this. He unselfishly passed it to me knowing how hard I was trying to land a Namor ( I think he got tired of all messages I sent wanting to buy his Namor Vs Iron Man Timm lol. Thanks a bunch

I haven’t had any luck on the few eBay auctions that just passed on some golden Subbys . It seems every book coming to market is getting scooped up . Some not cheap! Is it me or is demand started to amp up? A few months ago I noticed books lingering around Clink and eBay now they are ghosts??? -
Comic Art Commission how long is too long and what to do
Subby1938 replied to nathanlogan's topic in Original Comic Art
Great advice and most artists I’ve worked with are very good. Notable ones that wouldn’t consider doing a character I want is Adi Granov, Bruce Timm and even Jim Lee does not allow any input into the art which is fine he tends to do your character at least -

Subby1938 replied to nathanlogan's topic in Original Comic Art
His pieces are super expensive for the size no offence that’s fine at least let customer choose their character. I work hard for my money it’s my right to buy or choose what I please . Some can argue it’s his right to turn you down but I’m leaning to the spender having more say here . -
Comic Art Commission how long is too long and what to do
Subby1938 replied to nathanlogan's topic in Original Comic Art
I’ve been trying for couple years now to get Bruce to draw or get a commission from him of Namor . Very very hard to do as he rarely draws what you want . I borderline harassed his art rep Albert Moy and learned that Al has zero say in Timms choice or art. I won’t give up on getting that special colour piece from him . Being in Canada complicates things even more ..... -
Great art work here . I’d kill for that Namor piece I posted but even getting a personal commission has been difficult . I know last year Albert offered me a spot I had already spent too much a month Earlier for a Jim Lee piece . Couldn’t swing both financially , I’m starting to regret that as wait lists and cost is up every year making it harder to score art
