accessndx Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Mattbird: I dunno what :think: is supposed to refer to when I indicated I bid on something...LMAO. E.S.: I didn't mean to step on anyone's ....I'm sorry if it came off this way. It just appeared that there was a witch hunt for ol' Dannyboy and I came to his defense. I implicitly understood every limitation everyone had relating to Nate-gate. Yes, I get it...he's busy and can't deal with every little request someone has. Should people be more patient and tolerant: yes, myself included. Do we love Nowhere Men and Nate.....yes. We dig you as well and are surely glad you entertain our insanity in these forums. You're correct that every fart that blows should not be aired here. Don't get the wrong impression however. I just was the 3rd person involved in the aforementioned issue and wanted to reinforce that Dannyboy didn't just come in here busting caps without having attempted to resolve the issue multiple times and without harming anyone in the process. He shouldn't be demonized for that......and neither should Nate for being an artist that has very little time available as result of all the good press. I wish nothing but increased success for Nate and all the projects you're working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colicab Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I would have rather been patient and gotten the OA instead of publicly outing an artist and just getting a refund. A very tough lesson learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) yeah, it will be quite some time before OA is going to be offered by Nate online....see him at a con or forget it. Hopefully word doesn't start to spread among the Image artists and they raise the drawbridges. Edited March 26, 2013 by krighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully word doesn't start to spread among the Image artists and they raise the drawbridges. +1 that would make me said. Hey E.S.- Perhaps tell Nate to contact jjeanius on these boards. His CCA website is great and really helps out the artists in eliminated them from not dealing with the drama. He is also a really reasonable person to talk/deal with.

Chaseman210 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I'm curious about OA. I've never tried to obtain any, but what are the prices like? I assume it varies by artist, but I was wondering what a ballpark figure is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 $175+ depending on who's selling it......normally it's best to get in early, even before the comic is released...prices are normally a lot lower than after it gets hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colicab Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 150-500 depending. Splash pages are always more. Double splashes even more so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) yeah splash pages are often times as much as a cover, it varies from artist to artist. I think a certain modern cover was going for around $3500 but that's because I had heard he didn't really want to sell them. You can buy it, but you'll pay.

Chaseman210 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thanks for the answers, guys! I've wanted some OA for my personal collection, but I never knew how to go about getting it or how much it would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

500Club Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 . There's always a middle ground, and better still, there's a high road. Generally speaking, both lead to better places. -e.s. Eric Stephenson Publisher Image Comics, Inc. www.imagecomics.com That all sounds well and good, Eric. However, in this case, the 'middle ground' was attempted by one party, and the high ground would have involved blindly hoping the art got sent at some point. IMHO, I'd ve been a little concerned as well if I'd been told 'the art is packed and ready to ship' and 'the art is being sealed', only to subsequently have nothing be sent.

Mr. Hog Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I get excited to tune in and see what's up, yet find new drama... A bit expected at this point... But underwhelming. I will say the outcome for me has been a greater respect for e.s. - not in a buttkissy way. Because he comes on and speaks his mind and doesn't sugar coat it... Also he says 'fcuk'. Respect. As for the drama, sorry for adding to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
