That was a cool X-Men cover

[jbud73]

Has to be a record for a Brent Anderson piece by a mile.

…great X-Men cover and EVERY hero on X-Men and FF are using their powers/talent (except for Kitty being scared) which is an impressive artisitic feat

Wow! Brent Anderson hit's the big time! I might have to start busting out all my Strkeforce Morituri art and make a killing!

Yowza, look at the bidding on the X-Men Annual cover

 

Someone really really wanted that cover. I thought 15K tops.

 

 

 

It was more than just one person who really, really wanted that cover. Looks like three separate bidders duked it out.

 

Big time congrats to the winner!

I just don't understand how all this art sells for so much money and when this auction is over, I usually only end up seeing about 10% of it. Are there that many "private" collectors that aren't on CAF? I seriously asking. Is CAF and these boards just the tip of the iceberg?

True Felix, but the person with the last bid, really really wanted it. At 44K you have to be thinking, "I'm spending 44K on an X-Men piece NOT drawn by John Byrne, and I don't give a **#*$&%&" Its the only way to still pull the trigger.

But that image by Byrne, on a cover, from that time period would have a "1" in front of that "44".

Those Fastner & Larson portfolio plate illustrations went WAY lower than I expected.

As the winner of the Wolverine poster, I agree 100%

Wow, I won the Alpha Flight one. That's a crazy low price.

[lb jefferies]

Nicely done.

[Dumur]

I was going to jump into the Alpha Flight one (being Canadian and all), but didn't go higher for some reason.

Nice score! I put in a low bid on that one too. I remember I gave that particular plate to a friend as an X-Mas gift when we were in junior high. I've largely moved away from collecting painted art, but, at these prices, I'm willing to make an exception. (thumbs u

The usually only give "featured" positions to pieces they think will make a minimum of $20K, so both very good buys.

Yes it is. There is something else I want up for auction so I declined to hit it a few more times Gene. The Canuck in me is slightly

True, I'm just saying that if I'm spending 44K on an X-Men piece, the artist is Byrne.

The auctioneers have really slowed down the pace compared to past auctions. Not great for watching, but much better for consignors. If this is HA responding to past criticism, then (thumbs u

I thought the girl went at a decent pace, but they guy really slowed it down.

The woman auctioneer has been the best one I can recall.
