Right next to the "Only an Android Can Cry" splash used as a placemat.

 

Please invite me over for dinner.  I'll bring the beer & pizza.

That one piece of art would have to be a big one for me to give up everything. Probably Detective #27 cover, or any page from Batman #1 depicting the Joker.

Personally, not sure there is one pice of comic art I would trade my entire collection for.  That said, if the Louvre ever wants to trade David's Death of Marat I'd be all ears.

I actually just acquired this piece  Thankfully I only had to sell a few pieces of my collection and not all of it. Never thought it would happen  

Will post in a couple months

I was going to say, sure, I'd swap it all for the cover artwork to Love & Rockets #1...and I would do so, but only if I were allowed to begin the hunt anew the next day. I mean, a Grail is a Grail but there's a world of wonderful OA out there that's still worth the chase.

You, sir, are an art tease.

I'd trade my collection for a Caravaggio.

Sigh.  David would "compose" a wall-sized canvas in such a manner as to simply avoid drawing as many faces and feet as possible.  Or, in the case of Mademoiselle Guimard and Stanislaw Kostka Potocki, he would just draw the feet ridiculously tiny.  The Tennis Court Oath was intended to portray a contemporary event, but by the time he abandoned this neglected project, it was an unfinished historical piece.  And his Deathmate: Socrates miniseries missed multiple shipping dates.  Really the 19th century's Rob Liefeld...

I wouldn't trade my collection for any one piece.  However, If I did, it would maybe look something like this:

Great Ceasar's Ghost!

Thanks!

In the right hands, Deathmate: Socrates could be a kick-@$$ book!

Ugh... forgot about the Cover to L&R #1....  Yeah, that would be a big contender for sure...
