Wolverine Symbiote...David Finch

It would be awesome to have an incredible amount of sketch covers. I just got into the hobby not too long ago and amassed over 20+ in that short period of time. But since I prefer them slabbed. I try to be picky on which ones to pursue. I can't imagine having over 100+ and having minimal storage space. I've seen the names mentioned above collections and they're pretty incredible. Not sure if there's any worth in these sketches but I do appreciate the hobby. Especially when you get an actual sketch from your favorite artist growing up.

Honestly, there should be a thread where you show us your top 10 sketch covers....just saying...

Ryan Ottley Sketch

Back from the Jim Shooter Signing....David Finch Sketch

Just to give you an idea for a sketch cover... Image #1 Remarque $500 Image#2 Profile Sketch $850-$1000 Image#3 Head Sketch $2000-$3000 Image#4 Bust shot no background $4000 Image#4 Bust shot with background (wraparound) $8000 I asked Moy if Lee would recreate Hulk #181 or something similar with both characters....$10K+ (but he also said Lee would unlikely do the request)

I spoke to Albert Moy (Lee's Rep) over at TorpedoCon yesterday regarding a sketch cover commission. Depending on the sketch request. If it's something specific like a Homage or how the character is posed there's a good chance it will be rejected. Usually the request should be made simple for instance I just asked for a full sketch of Wolverine ($4-5k). But depending on your patience...sketches completed could take up to 2 years. And you'll have to pay upfront. Moy holds the money till Lee is done and receives the sketch. I couldn't do the profile sketch. I've seen too many and they all look the same.

Just noticed the 2 sketches I submitted are scheduled for grading....Looks like will be receiving these maybe within a month??.... I'm surprised pics weren't shown through Instagram on how they turned out...

Yes...also look at the location of Stan Lee's signature...huge turn off for some bidders... The seller thought $10,000+ easy....

Is he even doing commissions anymore? or maybe you have to be really good friends with him or his Rep? I was able to lock in on a remark through here for his cgc signing....

Thanks for the response....

Hello, I was looking to purchase a sketch from Bob Layton. Currently I'm negotiating with his Rep Spencer Beck on purchasing the piece. I did ask him if he can submit it directly to CGC for Certification. Unfortunately he's not facilitator. How Can I have that sketch get a yellow label for Certification? Do I send the form directly to Spencer Beck to fill out or does it have to come from Bob Layton directly?

Just got this in today....Not sure how many Jason Fabok sketch covers are out there. Also did a little digging and found this link: Jason Fabok: BATMAN: ETERNAL I believe this is the actual sketch cover he's referring...maybe...the date shows 10/3/13. The book came out as a Wondercon exclusive in Feb 2014.

1 day remaining....ends tomorrow.... LINK: https://www.ebay.com/itm/304003161448?hash=item46c8001d68:g:CesAAOSwj0ZglA2~

Before the summer last year I was searching for this book like a mad man. I just got back into collecting and made a short list of comics I wanted to get. I remember seeing 2 on Ebay at $2500 but passed cause I didn't have the cash at the time. Then of course when I did they were gone. I do remember being picky because if I'm spending that kind of cash. I wanted to make sure it looked pretty clean. So jagged edges, Mis-wrap's or bent corners were a definite pass. So seeing now how people spend that kind of money on a condition like that is crazy to me. Note: I was able to get a 9.8 copy before they jumped.

Here you go...a reunion no one asked for....

I did....but not the miscut...

Neal Adams and David Finch....

You just bought that? I think I saw this on Ebay not too long ago....good piece...

Lee Bermejo...

It's obvious the seller doesn't want to part with it. So what do you do?....you list it at a ridiculous amount and hope someone caves in..

Newsstand?

Jim Lee is tempting...I like to see what other ones you plan on selling....

True...If that sales...then copies will be hitting an all time high...
