That was a very cool piece you had . Why did you let it go? These things are hard to come by that was a great example -

One of the best and well said . He actually is a rare artist in terms of his body of works on Spiderman . When it comes to the black suit three names come to mind; Ron Frenz Mike Zeck Charles Vess All of these artists are important but I think the most iconic black suit covers come from each : ASM 252 :Frenz Web of Spiderman 32 :Zeck Web of Spiderman 1: Vess of these Web of 1 has to be the most iconic . As for commissions or works from a Vess on Spiderman I’ve been saving a few pictures I archived over the years . Get ready ... This is all I could find so vintage Vess 1985-? not much at all! -

I’ve learned a thing or two about art and acquiring tough to find artists . I don’t care about published art. You know why? Most of the pages are hot dog fillers . They suck . Anything worthy or a big splash is fought over by deep pocket buyers not fans ( at least not many ) . These people are the ones driving prices up . So if you want to talk pages start another thread I can guarantee I won’t be there ok pal!

Where is proof that happens? It’s not a new car leaving the lot . I can guarantee my Lee piece did not lose value when it was done . I was actually offered more than I paid as I doubt very much Jim will ever do a redo of a redo. HTF artists get premium money and the longer the wait lists or older they get the more people want them . I never wanted to wait decades to be able to buy a specific character by a specific artist. When the chance came up I went for it . I have no regrets . I’m very comfortable in my art pieces ( all Commissions)I’m 100% going to get my money back When the time comes . No doubt!

He really is a fantastic artist . I’ll give my two cents on what I’ve seen on Esad. If he loves what he is painting the result will be stunning . Try and get a piece at a lower consumer event so he can focus on fewer pieces and you can get the best art you can. Obviously everyone wants a gem but if I’m an artist and people start showing up to my booth with cash , things change. Time per piece will taper off as well as quality . Esad also gives you more bang for your buck with 2 figures piece as price goes up so does quality . In the end it really is hit and miss sometimes . At the NYCC he dis my piece on day 1 and I believe it may have been one first pieces he did which really helped my cause before more money started pouring in . -
