Not all nostalgia is good ?

Cover I was secretly hoping to win.  No one would be very interested in it so figured $6k-$8k.  Boy was I wrong.

You might say you were expecting to win it for Peanuts 

[Bronty]

this is an interesting contrast at similar price points

 

	94026	Mark Bagley and Randy Emberlin Amazing Spider-Man #374 Story Page 10 Venom Original Art (Marvel, 1993)....	$40,800.00	Sold to HA.com/Live
		94025	Ayers Strange Tales #115 Story Page 3 Sandman Original Art (Marvel, 1963)....	$45,600.00	Sold to Internet

1 hour to get through the first 27 lots.  At this pace we’ve got another 7 hours left in this round.

[Bronty]

Yikes.

But that's kind of on point I think.   A little over 30 seconds per lot is normal.

[Kryptic1]

It’s over 2 minutes per lot.

$84K for the Kryptonian Heimlich maneuver. My condolences to the winner.

Wonder if this is a record for a cover swipe?

In 2000 or so I tried to win this on ebay at the last second, but I was foiled by a slow internet connection.  Winning bid was $400.

Seriously? Panel pages are going for $3K-5K and the cover is from one of the most important scenes in the film.

I had no idea what things were selling for

Excalibur 16 goes for double Dazzler 1?  

[Brian Peck]

96K with juice for Excalibur #16 cover by Alan Davis and Paul Neary

 

Wonder how Gary Land is taking it. He cornered the market on Davis Excalibur art and sold that cover not too long ago for 1/10 the hammer. That is crazy price for a DAVis Excalibur.

The last Excalibur cover for sale went for around $14k a month ago. People have lost their damn minds at 100K

Great cover, but that's nuts!  Obviously it was a bidding war between two people who really really wanted it!

Great cover

Honestly, that's a stretch to me.   Its a decent cover with a cool homage, but its pretty far short of "great."

Wonder what Excalibur one shot and Excalibur 1 are worth then.    Obvious we can't really project this data point too much, but still.

[Matches_Malone]

Mike Dringenberg Sandman #8 page hammered at $90K.  It's sort of what I expected as it's  Not too far off from the selling price of the first appearance of Morpheus. But part of me feels it should have gone higher, above the 100K mark.  Me thinks, these pages are just scratching the surface.
