CREEPY #112 "The Last Sorcerer" pages 5-6 by Alex Nino (Warren, 1979)

Chaykin would agree.

Gazing into my crystal ball, I predict this piece of art will soon magically appear on the RomitaMan website. Welcome to the “future flip of the day”... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Peter-Snejbjerg-THE-DREAMING-1-1996-pages-2-amp-3-DPS-Stunning-VERTIGO-Art-/402049129050?hash=item5d9bfeda5a%3Ag%3AFnQAAOSwEy1eKkUF&nma=true&si=P0Ux18fRWKItf%2F%2FJe8WcIuXMsgU%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

I don't believe the Carillo sold in that eBay auction. Not sure though. I do seem to remember it for sale elsewhere later, but not sure if it was a posted sale with a fixed price tag or public auction. It's all a blur. The Carillo did finally appear on CAF last year, so I would imagine the new owner knows for sure. https://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=1549599 I remember initially liking the image when it was listed on HA. Considered bidding, but did not. Then I saw it not long afterwards on eBay with the mega-marked up BIN and sent those links to Lee. The rest is history.

Amazing this thread all started less than 3 years ago with a humbly little Fred Carillo SSOC #170 back cover pin-up. Now over 75,000 views later. Impressive.

It was actually discounted by $1000, but who's counting? (it's still fugly, by the way) And RS88, I have a t-shirt for you. Let me know your size.

There are many licensed properties that Marvel turned into comics, and then there is this one...

Fugly Conan of the Day! Jusko SSOC 137 cover painting, $3300 on Comiclink: https://comiclink.com/itemdetail.asp?back=%2Fsearch.asp%3Fwhere%3Dsell%26title%3Djusko%26GO%3DGO%26ItemType%3DCA&id=1365662 Now $6500. Still fugly. (reduced later to $5500, and still fugly) http://www.romitaman.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=23649&ArtistId=1307

AVENGERS #112 page 19 sold on HA for $690 in December 2019: https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/don-heck-and-frank-bolle-avengers-112-story-page-19-original-art-marvel-1973-/a/121950-15091.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515 Now on $1399 BIN: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Avengers-112-Page-Featuring-Thor-Lightning-Strike-Don-Heck-1973/293459261245?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

Two great and respected artists does not make one great piece. #clickbait #flip-fodder

Both of these Kirby pieces (Amazing Adventures #2 splash and FF Annual 2 Super Skrull pin-up) sold in the HA November 2019 Signature for $33,600 and $15,600 respectively. https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/jack-kirby-and-chic-stone-amazing-adventures-2-splash-page-1-inhumans-original-art-marvel-1970-/a/7212-91044.s?ic4=OtherResults-SampleItem-071515&tab=ArchiveSearchResults-012417 https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/jack-kirby-and-chic-stone-fantastic-four-annual-2-super-skrull-pin-up-illustration-original-art-marvel-1964-/a/7212-91040.s?ic4=OtherResults-SampleItem-071515&tab=ArchiveSearchResults-012417 Oh, hello there again!

Another link to CAF that doesn't work. #shocked

Your old link does not work. I see you're selling it now on Romitaman. That didn't take long. Did you ever even own the Hawkman page? Typical #clickbate post in this thread, as usual. http://www.romitaman.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=23180&ArtistId=1176

Notice how the Donnellys changed the description of this item they purchased from HA to make it sound like Kirby actually touched the piece and drew layouts, which were then finished by Purcell. Here is the original listing from HA: https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/howard-purcell-black-knight-marvelmania-poster-original-art-marvel-1969-/a/7204-93128.s?ic4=OtherResults-SampleItem-071515&tab=ArchiveSearchResults-012417 And here is the Donnelly piece with their altered and deceptive description. #lame. http://www.coollinesartwork.com/Featured.asp?Piece=309213

Here is an example. Originally this piece by Jesse Santos was published as the title page to Mystery Comics Digest #3 (Western, 1972). Later the top portion of the title page was used for the cover to Doctor Spektor Presents: Spine Tingling Tales #1 (Western 1975).

What's awful is the same year this woman's husband was President of Marvel Comics was also the same year Jack Kirby died. (1994)

Wow, what a badge of honor. A real high point year for the company.

UPDATE: Listed on eBay by Donnelly for $1495 opening bid, while at same time was listed/consigned on HA (whoops). HA results are in....$360. #realitypricing https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/panel-pages/brian-postman-and-kim-demulder-captain-america-annual-7-story-page-1-original-art-marvel-1983-/a/122001-11857.s?ic2=mytracked-lotspage-lotlinks-12202013&tab=MyTrackedLots-101116

A friend of mine who is not on the boards is selling a nice Mignola page from "Hellboy: The Third Wish." He's friendly and easy to work with. Drop him a line if interested: https://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=1597561
