Indeed I do but I don't know which pages each one did.

or your wife! I just had an incident were Mike Perkins and Steve Epting were credited to work on a full issue of Captain America so I took I page I had from that issue for Steve Epting to sign it. It turns out they split the book up and some pages were completly pencilled by Mike and other pages were completely pencilled and inked by Steve. I will say GCD is the best place to get information about an issue and errors are few and far between.

interesting to read about his process.

That looks like it was a great trip! Watching a lot of art and enjoying drinks and a new place!

Hecho Manuel! Gracias por la oportunidad.

You really liked DHoKF! Nice art! let me know when you populate it with more art.

nice art! I wish I could afford an entire issue!

What are you saying I got wrong? I think people here are wrong to attack a person that is doing auction analysis for free which is a great tool for knowledgable buyers. That is what is wrong in this world. Everyone has opinions but if you don't like an auction report then continue hounding the person doing them, eventually they'll keep them to themselves.

Mike will get punished as he deserves. What about others who have had scams like his? Selling others books and not sendig comics out. I still vividly recall Craig Oscarson from The Brain Trust and how other group members tried to get him to pay for his crimes unsuccesfully. I only lost 2 books in that scam unlike others that found themselves out of a lot of money and books.

I appreciate @Michael Browning market anaylsis after auctions happen so why would we doubt his market analysis? The OA market is a harsh market and information is essential for informed buyers to make assertive choices when purchasing items. Michael's reports are thoughtful and more than others deserve if they don't do there own market research. I always follow auctions and dealer pricing myself but really don't have the time or energy to share them with others so his work is very commendable.

Let's wait for a SSB page to come to auction and well really see if the market is holding and those $30k private sales are true.

that is the truly interesting question. Who cared enough to bid on it on a Wednesday? A real collector that missed the drop or other people invested in keeping his market as is?

it's easy to assume to but in reality the market is down and many are not willing to send money on collectibles. Especially modern ones that have 20+ years to become vintage.

mostly for those invested in the artist current pricing to be kept.

the books that the detective has received will not be coming back to owners for a long time if they are to be used as evidence during the trial.

he still doesn recreations but they are definitely a lot more than $500

I'd put my faith more in a private sale price than and auction price as we have to remember anyone can bid on an auction so it might get a bid that technically cannot be called a "shill bid" but a bid to bump it up to at least it's original price might be made by interested parties.

Hello I have these two comics up for auction on Comiclink and they are ending this coming Monday and Tuesday: STAR WARS: HEIR TO THE EMPIRE #1, NEWSSTAND EDITION, CGC 8.5 VF+ ends Tuesday 8/6/2024 featuring the 1st appearance of Grand Admiral Thrawn & Mara Jade. STAR WARS #68, NEWSSTAND EDITION, CGC 9.2 NM- end Monday 8/5/2024 Both of these books are highly coveted as they are newsstand editions so any bids will be highly appreciated!

@Dr. Balls yes, definitely worth the premium! @Matches_Malone if I were to pay $20k for a commission (which sincerely I'd never pay but have paid more than that for a published piece of his) I would not be looking to get a "raw energy" vibe to it. I'd like to have the ultimately perfect piece which imho is achieved by Jim Lee when being inked by Scott Williams. I can attest to it as I got an unpublished Jim Lee pencilled cover and I paid Scott to ink it and the piece now shines brighter than anything else I could imagine. I had Scott ink directly over Jim Lee pencils and I have no regrets about that, I did keep a scan of the pencils just to show how lackuster they were.

Thank you for saying this! To me there is no good Jim Lee art without Scott Williams inks. Scott Williams deserves to command high prices for his ink work! I've paid his fees and he is completely worth every dollar he charges!

I personally wouldn't be able to afford a commission at that pricing so I'm glad I got what I got when I did. As a collector I hope his commission prices help give his published work a bump in price so I can sell some of the pieces I have. He can sell his commissions at whatever price he so desires and will do so. The opinion of collectors who can't afford them is irrelevant but the 1st amendment gives them the right to speak as they please.

I0ve hread this from a very known dealer!

I somtimes joke that some dealers hype the art they have for sale as 1/8th splash but it's getting ridiculous.

I wanted to sign up for a Fedex account but they told me at Fedex, in El Salvador, that I had to use the service a number of times each month to apply for an account with discounted shipping. What were the conditions you got when you signed up for one?

Let's see some art!
