CLOSED — $85 Original Art - Copper Blue Beetle; 6 Pages Left 1 1

[Readcomix]

 

The pieces: 10 assorted pages from issues 8 and 9 of the 1980’s DC Blue Beetle series. Pencils by Paris Cullins, inks by Dell Barras. Most of the pages have some sketches (some pencil, some ink) on the back, so I am showing both sides of each page.

5 Simple Rules (Please, please read)

1st  wins; tie/indeterminate goes to the thread.

Payment is Check or Money Order (yeah, yeah I know I'm a dinosaur, troglodyte, luddite, mennonite, hermaphrodite etc. - I just don't have or want e-payments.)

Shipping: Within U.S., $25 box shipping unlimited; one page or the entire thread. (The boxes I use run me $7; the rest covers shipping. If it’s less, I’ll put the difference in the package. Art will be in cardboard sandwich with lots of bubble packing inside the box, which is wrapped in plain brown paper for that slightly seamy “racy lingerie/adult toy” feel. Will label as such at no extra charge, for the titillation of your postal carrier if you like )

Don't be listy  including the little one in my head.

Returns: Sure, just notify me within three days of receipt and get it back to me in the same shape on your dime.

Thanks Pete! I thought the same thing when I picked them up. Seeing them together made me feel like it was a little window on how Cullins and/or Barras works. I imagine they were fleshing out concepts for this series or something else, but then again maybe they were just doodling to practice their chops  

Either way, it makes them cooler and more fun!

I can add some Fables pages (Mark Buckingham/Dan Green) if there's any interest, though they are not quite as cheap as the BB's.
