g-man Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) finished last night on the link....lots of bids but the hammer price was pretty low IMO. Bats and the JL. Maybe because it wasn't a Batman title? No action? Or Clink? Edited January 17, 2023 by g-man aardvark88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will_K Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 People really pay serious $$$ for the pages where you see the lugs on the bottom of the Batman's boots. OtherEric and jjonahjameson11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GotSuperPowers? Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) Man, I hope the buyer for this piece isn't reading this thread... Or it doesn't pop up on Glen's site at 3x shortly.

malvin Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I didn't even realize there were Clink art auctions ending last night! I guess for this batch they separated the premium from the others and had the premium ones end weeks earlier. Malvin gumbydarnit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtcheap31 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I think that went for a very healthy amount I wonder what that page would have done if it was a hush splash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was their January focussed auction, but there was a small batch of "premium" pages. The rest of the OA didn't finish until February but the premium ones finished last night. I would have bid on some, good thing none finished than my max or I would have kicked myself (and I'm cheap, my max usually isn't market value, sellers should worry if I buy from them! ) Malvin Edited January 17, 2023 by malvin gumbydarnit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good, but not exciting enough to fight for it. The final price reflected it. Maybe that was symptomatic of other pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His foot seems at an odd angle, along with his bicep in the shadow. His forearm seems oddly long - I mean, I don't mean to be critical, but it just seems like a really off page for a Jim Lee piece. On the flipside, no shame to the buyer who locked in a Jim Lee piece for themselves (assuming it's not a dealer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But did you really look at them? Compared to the mediocre ones in the last batch these were even more lacking in images that would induce bidding. delekkerste and cloud cloddie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's when I bought two pages from it. The inkers share got broken and sold then I believe. delekkerste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
