I don't know if this one fits in here or on the Bronze Age forum, but I thought I'd post it anyway. It's the Tom Palmer Tomb of Dracula 66 cover art.

Checkmate! 29 by Tom Grindberg from 1990. (I think that's still the copper age, right?)

You have to understand that the term Copper Age really hasnt been around that long. I find myself sometimes asking, is that Copper. As well I think it got short changed in the timeline thing. IF COPPER really starts at 1984 it gets the shaft because 1980-1984 is a pretty production time period that now gets associated with Bronze. The period itself if defined as 1984-1992/3? Is the breifest of all the periods is it not. Modern at 1994-2005 is now longer

 

In terms of Market, you haev to give it some time, the BA market just matured in the last 5 years. Copper is a ways a way, if it ever comes at all. I can't imagine a future when DKR #1 and SOTST #21 are worth $1000 can you?
