It reiterates the main rule about sketch covers. Commission whatever you like. But if it is for resale, cheesecake sells the best. Concept pieces, like the 1/2 and 1/2 design of the Corona piece are a complete crapshoot.

 

I didn't commission this piece for resale at all. If I was going for that I would have requested Emma Frost making out with Rogue while Jean Grey slowly removed their costumes using telekinesis. I merely had an opportunity to buy a key I'd been chasing forever and needed to finance it with sales, which meant the most recent books got the cut. If I could have predicted such a pathetically low sale price I certainly would not have listed it.

 

Is this idea copyrighted or can we start requesting it in our ops?

You are free to use it so long as the artist writes "after ryanatlas" beneath his signature.

This is a truly once in a lifetime opportunity to own such a rare piece. It’s with a heavy heart and deep regret that I have to let this “Grail” piece go, but bills must be paid. This particular issue of Sandman #1 is signed by Karen Berger, Executive Editor of DC Comics’ Vertigo imprint, who has recently stepped down. It is also signed by artist Sam Kieth, who rarely makes appearances, Robbie Busch the colorist, Add the lines coming out of the eyes and it even has a sketch by cover artist Dave McKean, and most importantly, it is inscribed “Sweet Dreams” by Neil Gaiman.
