The Amazing Spida-mang

THE ABSOLUTE BOMB as far as Venom VS Carnage goes ............... my sketch finished by Bill Dinh. And a big congrats to him for the piece itself.

Rich

 

That is a fantastic piece - makes me want one

Bill is an amazing artist. Kudos to him 100%

This is so cool! I'd be very tempted to leave this raw and display the cover open on the wall if it were mine. Very cool!

I will be enlarging a pic of the spread and adding font if need be for a framing at some point as I do share your sentiment ;¤)

Rich

ps.... but is always nice 2 have the original in a well kept environment.

One of my newest additions, Sergio Cariello (9.6)

 

 

I do have a few more to show off but my scanner is dead, so I guess it'll have to wait. These phone taken pics don't do any justice to the pieces

 

 

Beauty bro!

:-)

 

Thanks man (thumbs u I got the scanner working so why don't I post this Venom in good quality

Thanks to Par2ch for this one!

;¤) NICE!!!!

Time to this thread with a few books I just back from the Dallas Comicon. Thanks to DWC for making these happen! This was the first show I have done SS books at, and DWC made the process very easy!

 

Amazing Spider-man #254 signed by Rick Leonardi.

Not sure how this got a 9.2 as it looks better than some 9.6s I have, but at least this has the distinction of lowest graded copy out of 8 on the census.

 

Amazing Spider-man #282 signed by Rick Leonardi.

Alone as second-highest SS copy out of 4 total on the census.

 

Amazing Spider-man #290 signed by John Romita Jr.

Tied with one other copy for highest graded SS, with only 4 SS on the census.

Nice books bro!

Never did manage to snag up a RL SS book as of yet!

Rich

nice stuff! I need to get me a Ron Frenz sketch someday

ditto my good man.... ditto

Sweet Mysterio

Two more Castrillo covers:

 

 

That ASM#29 cover is UBER SICK.

Congrats if your the owner of that beauty.

Agreed..... SICK COLLECTION (RUN) OF ASM BOOKS IN SS....

Best I've seen.

KUDOS bud!!!!!!!!!

Rich

Peep this, kinda of sad that it got a 9.2.

 

Ya know what bud?

Forget the 9.2

Grades mean mess on sentimental books.

From the Spidey in the top left corner to the Spidey in the bottom left corner where the UPC would be if it was a NEWSTAND edition, EVERYTHING BUT the actual title itself is BLACK & WHITE, WHICH is KILLER!!!!!!!!

I love the book!!!!!!

Rich

this is my favorite piece that I have from Bill, my very first sketch

 

here's one from BTK

 

 

MAN THIS IS FREAKING AWESOME ! Can't remember where I've spotted these before but I think they were the first BTK sketches that I've seen. You can imagine my jaw drop right to the floor

Very nice sketches.

Newstand and Direct Edition. Not really anything special.

I concur. It is cool to have both though. ;-)

LJB - GREAT SKETCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bryan91 let's see that puppy bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

Rich

I uploaded this on the Hero Initiative books thread already but what the hell

 

 

 

 

Let's keep the SS Spideys coming !

Congrats on owning one of the rarest sketch opp books of all time!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

Would of loved to get my hands on a few of them.

Rich

If the seller were to look at the responses in this thread, I think it would motivate him to sell it at the $80,000 price being offered.

 

assuming the 80k bid is "real".

I question alot of bids I see.

If you go to comic link right now and run a search on Amazing spider-man 226 cgc 9.8.

You have 1 copy with a misrap that a seller wants $528.00USD for & to top it off we have a bid at $375.00USD.

Secondly we have another copy with pretty much perfect centering, but with OW/W pages at $60.00USD for the Sell price. Not a bid on it.

Now wouldn't the guy that bid 375USD on the 1st copy just buy the one for $60???

Some things just blow me away. Now I don't think that's the site involved in any way whatsoever. But the person that consigned the 1st copy could very well have a friend jamming in a pretty hard and ridiculous bid to entice some dummy to pay alot more and create a bidding war.

Maybe this is the same scenario. Maybe not.

Time will tell I guess.

 

 

Love the spider sketch placement on this one (thumbs u

Yeah I like the placement on that too Steve man. Can't replace my

ASM#255-CGC-9.9 that I sold but what could?

That was my favorite book of all time. Old label. May have hit a 10.0 if resubbed it was flawless. Although who's gonna start cracking ASM 200-300 9.9's for resubs?

Let's see some more spidey books and Sketches fellows!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

Well it's been what ahhhhh ...... TWO MONTHS SINCE LAST POST?!?!?!?

EEEEEPPPPSSS

Figured as I don't have books in hand but Fred was nice enough to send me images as the good people at CGC have finished grading the 17 ASM books I subbed through Fred for the Rubinstein opportunity and as this thread desperately needed a bump it was time to post something.

I'll post my bummers first.

2nd ASM#271 CGC 9.8 Cracked - & - 2nd CGC 9.6 on return ;-(

& as a Hobgoblin Fan as my fav Villain this one killed me too....

and the 1st appearance of PUMA .... needless to say the 3 books that dropped were major BUMMERS ;-(

NOW ON TO THE GOOD OF THE LOT ... .14 of 17 did maintain a 9.8 with no 9.4's or anything lower so all in all a fairly good cracking and signing considering Joe took awhile to get it done, he added a small spider-sketch on each for me which adds to the rareness of my overall collection as I try to pull the entire run from 201-300 all in 9.8 SS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very happy that the BIGGER Registry point value books hit home such as ASM258/259/260 and a few others like 265.

Good opp all in all and will have 2 sketches to show when I receive sketch images for them in the actual slab as well as books that I received a few months ago from Sean - NY COMICS such as ASM201/202/208/209/220/224/243

244/248/249 & 251 all in CGC SS 9.8 when I get scans of them up as my scanner is down currently. 5 of them are Stan Lee's with the remaining by JRJR.

Rich

OK i posted this one on another thread, but I really like it so I'm posting it again, I hope there is no law againt it...

 

No law against it. Publish it in as many threads as you want.

Nice book!

I thought those ASM 201 & 202 were my books and somone scanned them till I saw the John Romita Sigs and the ASM 200.

Still can't get my scanner working. Have to buy a new one.

Very nice books Enigma!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rich

I Agree.

I love the sketch but if I could only do 1 book, it may be a wraparound of Spidey on front & back by Ditko & Romita or......

As it's more in my ASM ERA a JR & JRJR on back!!!!!!!!

Either way killer wraparound & ultimate spidey sketch!!!!!!

Rich

That Spidey Greenie is a dyno sketch!!!!!!!!

Sketch provided by Mark Bagley! It's a beauty!

NICE ASM#300 as well...

Adding this one I just got back from the Detroit signing.

SICK GRADE & ESPECIALLY ON AN ASM SS SLAB!!!!!!!!!

Beauty!!!!!!! Congrats bro
