RBerman Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Anybody ever thumbed through their stacks or portfolios or spreadsheets and come across an entry that baffled them? I'm usually meticulous about documenting the provenance, cost, and other details so my family can more easily unload my collection when I kick the bucket. Morbid thought! But anyway, I have this page that I know nothing about. It's not labeled, and it's not in my documentation file. It's not in my purchase history on eBay, ComicLink, or Heritage Auctions. (Comic Connect doesn't seem to have that feature, which is irksome.) So... anybody have a guess what it might be? Anybody else have stories about mystery pieces?

Rick2you2 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 On some occasions, I have bought things directly from artists who have thrown in some bonuses, like a pencil sketch, an extra page they apparently decided to gift me, a poster, signed comic, etc. Did you buy anything directly from the artist recently?

I don't believe that I got this that way. But part of the problem is that I have no idea what artist or series this is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E. Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 At the bottom margin I see the initials R.B. R.B….R.B….R.B. Where have I seen those initials? And could this person have multiple personalities unknown to each other? Will_K, cloud cloddie and Rick2you2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC25427N Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Well the paper itself is branded First Comics Publishing, might be a page from one of their publications? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_First_Comics_publications I know this doesn't have to be true but maybe if you have a lot of free time to go diving into their titles to see if any characters look similar to those in your piece its a decent lead to chase imo. Good luck! John E. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
