Moderns that are heating up on ebay! 71 71

[Dinosaur Pinata]

Has anyone checked the rest of Latour's previous work to see if he's ever drawn a middle-aged white male before...? It might be worth looking into.

 

 

Good luck finding any copies. I am buying up all available comics with white males. One if them is bound to be the prototype for the next new hot book.

Right. Those are typically one-shot characters created to test out concepts prior to launching the marvel lineup were all familiar with. Not even remotely similar to Wooster.

Scalped #43 is bringing as much as nearly all of those books in the 2 lists. Haha.

 

 

Here is the best yet. First Earl AND TV show. Hehe

ASM 471 has been mentioned as a potential book to watch in this thread before.

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/301204284728

 

Obviously not a trend yet, but that is a new high for the book and it was only listed for a few days. Relatively low number of copies listed for a modern ASM book at the moment.

 

I've been buying these. I didn't realize it was #471 I always thought of it as vol2 #30. That JSC and JMS run was pretty spectacular...I mean Amazing

 

I used to get very good money for issues #30 through #36 and I love going back years later and finding this stuff cheaper. (thumbs u

 

Same here been picking these up as I see em - 1st Morlun and sweet J.S Campbell cover.

Sandman looks just like Neil Gaiman - he is his own prototype! Anyone have a copy of his high school yearbook?

 

Also, I'm pretty sure Mcfarlane drew a black soldier somewhere in the ASM Assassination Plot storyline (Spawn prototype right there).

OK even I draw the line at prototypes with an exception for Foom 2.

Uh oh

[jjeanius]

Not to mention that prototypes are new creations - not an existing character created by another artist.

[Lonzilla]

Here's a neat kinda prototype story, A While back I got a Journey Into Mystery #74 from Nov 1961, same month FF #1 was released. I guess Kirby was practicing his Ben Grimm because one of the main characters in the story looked just like him.

But what really stood out to me was Ditko's "Mechanical Men", the side view especially with the Spidey shaped eye

List it as "RARE 1st Ditko Spider-Man prototype art pre Amazing Fantasy 15, NOT Foom 2"

So I went back through Scalped. I read it two years ago. No one can possibly still believe this is Earl Tubb.

 

 

 

#16 page 5. Actually appears on page 4, but page 5 he says his name.

 

#54 page 9. He gets shot in the head. Dead body is shown face down on page 10.

Yeah, spot on. The suggestion that this is Earl's first appearance is just silly. Or fraudulent. Take your pick.

Don't ruin it, Im really enjoying watching all the suckers buy Scalped 43 at hilarious prices

 

Anyone that's read Scalped knows how funny all of this is. Let the fools throw their money away.

Funny or annoying? I've watched Star Wars 68, which doesn't feature Boba Fett but another character entirely, get priced higher and higher as a Boba Fett cover and story. I think Boba Fett is in one or two panels in the book (in a flashback) and he isn't the character on the cover. (Hint: if you watched the Clone Wars TV series, you would understand there is an entire planet of people who wear armor that looks like Boba Fett's armor.)

 

Another is the first appearance of Rocket Raccoon. Half the collectors out there think it is Incredible Hulk 271.

 

Once these books go up, they hardly ever come down.

While the story in issue 68 largely doesn't feature Boba, the cover art IS definitely him. You can tell because of the Wookie scalps/pelts on his shoulder. Fenn Shysa doesn't have those.
