Or you can just go to comiclink in the OA section and sort by highest price.

 

It's a great page from ASM #32 where Spidey gets trapped under the rubble.

 

Asking price? 37.5K

 

Considering what Roger Clark's ASM page went for - who knows what's reasonable.

 

Will be interesting to watch...

[SuperBird]

that's an awesome page. What did Roger's sell for?

It's a very nice page, but $37.5K? That would be tops for a non-villain panel page so far as I know. It's splashy, but that's about all it has going for it, imho. No villain, no major content. Will Gabri-El is selling this early fight page for $38.5K:

Roger's page sold for $19,750, which I suppose in the overall context, was a good price.

I would take the Vulure page over the 32 page

[CAP Freak]

Vulture is lame. That crushed story is epic.

[Shemp]

I prefer the 32 page.

[Mac Man]

Yeah... that storyline was probably one of my favorites of Ditko's for interior artwork.

Hi

I was away over the New Year and missed Roger's auction. What was the Ditko page ( issue / page ) ?

Merci

ComicLink just added a Ditko Spidey to their upcoming auction:

Not as action-packed or splashy as their other page, but I find it much more interesting for content and for that reason, like it a whole lot better.

[CAP Freak]

It does have a panel similar to the cover.

[batman_fan]

Like the page but I am sure I won't like the final hammer price because it will definitely be outside my budget ...

Josh has done a nice job of attracting some very high-profile Ditko art to his site and auctions. The ASM 32 page is just a stunner, from one of (if not THE) most memorable ASM story arcs of all time. The ASM 18 page is a wonderful example of Ditko lines, characters, and facial expressions with a little action in the early panels. Who wouldn't want a page of Sandman with those sand-sledgehammer fists? I'm surprised they didn't put it up for sale right at the height of the ASM3 movie hype.

 

Which brings me to my ramblin' point. We're seeing some high-quality Ditko pages coming out of the woodwork now that prices are through the roof. I will be very interested to see if these pages sell near the asking price (or expected auction price) given the current economy. If enough people took Gene's advice and bought Gold when it was $400/ounce then sure they can afford Ditko If you had your money in Citibank, you're screwed and will probably be selling your own art pretty soon in order to pay the kids' college tuitions.

 

Will the Ditko market hold?

 

I think it will. Now, who wants to buy some krugerrands?

Hey Chris!

 

Deal! It's a long story. I'll PM you. But I'm good, just had a bit of a hiatus is all.
