Demon DPS about 47K with BP, a little low I thought. In general I think the prices are mostly not crazy this auction so far.

It was a great splash and I was expecting higher too but even at $47k, that is a darn strong price for a 70s Kirby double splash.

This one went higher than expected but as I predicted, I will have to be happy owning the Part One splash 

Your part 1 is certainly the better of the two, as well.   Congrats.   Highest number I can recall on a pre hero kirby splash on HA.

36k for Liefeld layouts? First appearance mania apparently extends to unpublished prelims.

 

I thought they would go much higher and  am very grateful to be bringing one of these home. 

These carried bigger weight to me than normal prelims due to the way Rob creates. Couple this with my love of Deadpool, and I couldn’t be happier!

I'm not sure. The really strong ones rarely come up. This was the best I can recall seeing at public auction in the last maybe six or eight years.

Congrats. There is a lot more to these Deadpool prelims than other common prelims. Not many other new characters debuting in the last 30 years, if any, have the cultural footprint of Deadpool. Not everyone will agree on the significance of prelims or their value, and that's ok. These are awesome.

Definitely. It’s perfect for my collection, so I was getting this as long as budget allowed.

We need to hear from Timely whether that was a good price or not. 

Don’t need West’s input to confirm what I already know

These days, bad is below $120K, good is $160K.

Congratulations to Jon Bogdanove on another spectacular auction!

I would not put the Calvin and Hobbes Sunday into the category of big winners. For the buyer, yes.

Compared to what, Scott?

What's the highest for a Peanuts Sunday?  Around $360K, right?  that one trumps many other Sundays at around $110K

As for Calvin and Hobbes, the highest price for a daily is $215K, which sold only a few months ago.  the previous high for a daily was $130K from Sept 2021.

So, what am I missing?

But you can't compare the volume of available Peanuts Sundays with available C&H Sundays...

Did I miss something? I didn’t think he had his work in this auction.

Yes, I'm well aware of that, Nico

So likely not good unless they paid no SP and got part of the BP

Only because of expectations built up from the price of the daily in the last auction.

But $400k would've been pretty impressive without that comparison point.

Two pieces on the low side I thought

* ASM 88 Romita Splash $77,500

* GL 69 cover Kane $59,000

Those are not the prices paid.

Who keeps quoting final prices without including the BP?!
