I was doing okay until 3..then it was my worst ever...I'm still punishing myself...I think I may like it. 😱😈😉

Congrats TC and General! well done!

@CGC Mike Thanks for another contest.

My quick start (for me) burned out quickly...

The Hit Comics threw me off.  I kept thinking there might be a detached cover at the top staple or worse a 50% spine split so I bumped it down to 4.5.  

That Hit and The Showcase annihilated me....totally crapped the bed.

Well, I've thrown out my "sure thing"....

Love the depth of the Tiki bar piece!

Thanks Good Dr...that's what I was trying to accomplish...from the Bamboo pole in the foreground, to the patron in the back left. I appreciate it!

That one has me stymied...some up...some down??? 7 points

Grades tossed in...I felt sooo sure...

3.5 I love this book...my 1st Silver ASM I acquired as a kid. 

could stretch to a 5.5

I think this BigBoy book is worthy of a tomb. 

I'll go 5.0 The front rock area on this one is usually all jacked up...this one presents well

4.5 or better if the back can be improved

I was rooting around some folders going through old artwork stuff and I found these: my buddy is an author and comic book aficionado, so when his second book was coming out (this was 9 years ago), I did a "variant" cover for him. Below are pencils, inks (with zipatone, which was awesome to work with again) and the final colored piece that he turned into a poster to give out to fans.

 

Love it Dr...nice work

Mike, I'm in..thanks!

5.5

5.0   nice

4.5 also...presents well though
