  1. Now this is just frickin' redonkulous. You have amassed your collection of over 500 pieces and everything has been since Superman For All Seasons? Less than 15 years? I am never selling you another thing. Man, I thought I was sick. Well, yes, I guess that I am sick. But you too! As soon as I win the lottery my collection will quickly expand too
  2. This was too cool to pass on on eBay http://www.comicartfans.com/gallerypiece.asp?piece=767695
  3. There are a bunch of threads: http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Board=48&Number=5399651&Searchpage=1&Main=246743&Words=coollines&topic=0&Search=true#Post5399651 http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4559320&fpart=1
  4. I haven't seen it yet, but my 74 year old father liked it
  5. I penciled in the prices, but Russ used glossy paper for the Frazetta catalog and the prices aren't too clear. I'll scan the results page from Catalog # 28 (coming up next). Oops, monitor viewing angle was not optimal. Thanks
  6. I am actually surprised how high the prices were for small Frazetta sketches(relative to the other art). $550 for a 5"x4" warrior Frazetta sketch, or $400 for an 8 page EC story?

  8. "New" art from the last few months: http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryDetail.asp?GCat=33951 Green Lantern, Conan, Batman, and Hangman
  9. Let me guess, you currently don't have any kids yet nor a gal you are very fond of, but expect to have them by release time?
  10. There is a lot of great stuff posted here. These are some of my favorites: I have been a big Wrightson fan for a long time, and his ST pages are my favorite: I really enjoyed the MCP series back in the day, the Keith covers were the best: Fun, beautiful page: Great looking page: One of these years I am going to own a WD page, but no way will it be nearly this iconic: Simpsons, Infinity Gauntlet. Is there a more perfect fit? I love Frazetta, and this is a well-executed homage: Great use of shadows on this cover:
  11. Not sure if this has been posted yet: (just noticed this is a GA thread, not General...oh well)
  12. One thing that I make sure I do is read the story that the art comes from. There have been plenty of time when I see an incredible splash page, but then I read it in the context of the story and (1) it is the only decent page of art in the entire book or (2) the story is . Some may disagree that story is important, but to me it is vital.
  13. Nice find! (thumbs u I'm not sure how CGC handles books like this. I'm sure the first grade would be the outer cover, but after that I don't know if it would be the most interior cover or not that would get the 2nd grade. Either way, we'd love to see a picture of the book with the extra covers fanned out. The highest graded cover is the actual grade for the book, and the grade of each other cover is noted. (This also assumes that there is nothing funny looking that resembles re-assembly...you never know what strange things previous owners do to their books.)
  14. I am glad to see that Wiki posters are still up on their counting and addition skills.
  15. Alien doesn't seem to be a very popular game: http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/6689/alien
