My X-Men Original Art quest.. and the Journey... 1 1

[Unstoppablejayd]

As one of our infamous dealers would say… this is a doozy!!

the one I wasn’t sure I would ever get.. Neal Adams!

end page from issue 59… the two biggest contributions from adams in his X-men run in my opinion are  Havok and Sauron… this page has some shots of Havok and the first appearance of Dr Karl Lykos who next issue transforms to Sauron! All this and all the realism and emotion that Adams is known for!

Thanks Gene!! Still Kind of in shock it is here

Oh my. Now that is a page.

Omg it feels like forever since I could update everyone on my quest… only two artists left and pretty stuck. Ian Churchill has been much harder then I ever thought it would be (admittedly some fumbles on my part like not knowing how Goldins auctions work , bad set up and info on there part fyi) 

Kia Asamiya is whole different problem.. he is a manga artist and they don’t sell ANY of their OA … I was able to connect with his rep in Japan and plead my case … but it went no where ugggh… I was able to get Kia to do a sketch for me so that will have to suffice for a check mark on this one. Big stretch but the best I can do!

Now someone please sell me a Churchill X-men page!!! Lol

Jay, do you have the art in a CAF gallery? I'd like to add it to "The Themed Comic Art Thread." It's a terrific example of a theme.

We should come up with a plaque for when you immortalize someone's collection on your thread. 

We can tell them "You've Been Touched By a Johnson"....welcome to the club!!!!

Let me know what you think about it. I find themed collections to be really interesting.

Jason, 

Do you still need an Ian Churchill X-Men page?
