That, my friend, is a birthday present! Yes, sometimes your wishes come true. There is a video of me unwrapping the present and from my behavior it is quite clear that this is not what I had expexted... (There are a few pages Jansson never had returned from his employer - the newspaper where it was published - but their whereabouts are unknown. There is also a piece of promotion art sitting in his inker's files that waits to be returned - I had my mind set on that one before I got lucky with these two.)

JadeGiant Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) I love a good grail thread and there are some definite grail-worthy pieces posted in this one. If money were not an object I would love to own a significant piece of early Kirby Hulk (The piece posted as part of Felix's recent podcast is a good example). Or maybe the cover the Hulk 227. For the art in my collection, the piece below is easily the most grail-like that I own. I hunted it for years before finally brining it down. There's a much longer description in my CAF if you are so inclined. http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=1362015 Edited April 15, 2017 by JadeGiant fsumavila and UnboxingTreasures 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an excellent piece of work but I can't get Shrek out of my mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyNameIsLegion Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Man, picking just one is tough. I guess I have to go with this one today- but reserve the right to change my mind- this was the first Avengers comic I ever had or ever saw- and I still consider it the perfect book. fsumavila 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unca Ben Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 That is a nice page; Vision, Doc Doom, Attuma, Cap, Iron Man, the Wasp and Scarlet Witch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaeld Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 This is the last of my three grails. The stars lined up for me to get this including a mistake by the auction house. This item was supposed to have a reserve placed on it but the auction house dropped the ball. Had they remembered to add the reserve I wouldn't have this piece today. http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=966095 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtymartini1 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 A comic etched in my childhood memory and I was able to acquire it. I love it from the use of Vulture's silouette, to the negative space and lasty Spidey in the Pieta pose holding the injured flight attendant. Giacoa inks finish off this amazing Saviuk cover like a cherry on top. zhamlau, fsumavila and BCarter27 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thethedew Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) Everything about MICRONAUTS 11 (1979) is a grail for me. After all this time, the art for the entire book is still assembled. In addition to the cover below, the interiors can be seen here: http://www.comicartfans.com/galleryroom.asp?gsub=58556 The only way it could be more perfect is if the original color guides survived. Anybody know? Edited May 8, 2017 by thethedew Text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r100comics Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I haven't seen many Micronauts color guides around and have only ever owned a couple. I do own the complete guides to #11 but they're from the 1985 series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
