Someone just consigned a boatload of walking dead pages & covers over there. Only people it could possibly be are Adlard, Moore or Kirkman. Probably the latter. No, it's all from the James J Collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a fair deal for the buyer too. Everyone wins. Yeah, I'm underwhelmed by this cover. Has a lot of characters, but not very good/flattering shots IMO. I suppose a Solomon Grundy-dominated cover beats a Psycho-Man dominated cover, but... I normally love Adams/Giordano, but the inking here is loose and there's not much background detail outside of the heap of characters on the floor. Just feels like a piece that checks a lot of boxes (Adams, check; 1971, check; multiple JLA members, check) but doesn't really thrill the eye. At least not mine. I liked the JLA #66 cover that sold for less at Heritage last year about 100x better. It checks the less desirable 1968 box, yes, but it is just a much more appealing cover IMO (IIRC I was the underbidder on that one; I had zero interest in bidding on the one tonight).

Dick O. Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 The Frazettas have 2-minute intervals before each one, versus the standard 40 seconds for other pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it sold for $3k LESS than a Capullo Batman cover.....how many boxes does that check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenlake Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I thought it was odd how low the Killer Croc origin page was going, then it went from $605 to $1351 with three bids in three seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flambit Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Well, 4 minutes to go on the FF cover, and I was officially way off base by thinking it would go for 250+... Unless there is some giant leap in price. Shows what I know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabidFerret Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) $7900 for Jim Lee card art of Psylocke and Captain Britain seems insane to me. Especially with an Allstar Batman page going for only $2500. Edited September 20, 2017 by RabidFerret Twanj and Ryanfromottawa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The psylocke was re-used as a variant cover. Now I want to figure out if I can extrapolate the value of my sabretooth card art, which was also used as a variant cover from that finish Malvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'd say that's right on target given the last couple of Byrne Superman cover sales on clink... As much as I liked that era and the art, that story was so slimy I just couldn't bring myself to bid. That Next Men cover was only $600... I probably woulda bid on that one but I forgot about it!
