delekkerste Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 That 1st Legion page from New Mutants went nuts. Cool page, but...$93K? DC gets no respect...can't believe that sweet Swan/Adams Jimmy Olsen/Supes cover only went for $15K. Didn't see until now that the Tec 395 page by Adams/Giordano only went for $12K. Not an A page but some cool poses, splashy panels. If I was in the market for an Adams Bats page, I would have been very happy to pick that one up at that price.

Par for the course for sports cards, but, not often you see that for comic art. Edited June 23, 2023 by delekkerste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexus Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 On 6/22/2023 at 10:47 AM, Bronty said: Well its an indy book from the 90s of some acclaim. I seem to recall one interior page going for even more than that. I don't play in that market but the price seemed reasonable to me, as though it could have gone for something more. Clowes/EIGHTBALL is squarely in my wheelhouse. And I had zero interest in that cover. But EIGHTBALL covers rarely pop up so for anyone looking for one, this has pretty much been it for a while. There are some collectors who pegged it even higher, based on where other Clowes art has sold. I could definitely see that for more desirable covers (I understand there are much higher offers for some of the "best"); this one finished about where it should, IMO.

Dirtcheap31 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I know we were chatting about the hush cover going a little light but then have a splashing hush page going for about the same as that cover so I think hush art is doing just fine maybe people were scared away thinking a hush cover that’s going to be 80-100k and that may have scared way some bidders who knows… but that semi splash page at over 50k seems like a strong result.

Bronty Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) FWIW Looking through the results I see a Little Nemo Sunday ended at 36k; cheapest since 2010. Middle of the road example maybe but they were all hitting 100k+/- for a while there. In fact one example sold for more than this all the way back in 2006!

He's been pretty open when he buys something on his own account, like the Dark Knight 1 cover, so just keep an eye out and you might get confirmation, I guess.

Pretty sure that one will go down in the record books as one of the biggest hits someone has taken on a blue chip, mainstream piece of original comic art. Where and for how much was this bought Gene?
