SuperBird Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Is this the most that new comic pages have ever sold for? (as in, freshly sold when the book was published) Nexus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grendel72 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 From Felix's website : "Thank you to all who have helped us achieve this historic, record-setting day for modern comic art. Today, there is no creator more deserving than Tradd to hold this crown. DOCTOR STRANGE: FALL SUNRISE is an absolute masterwork from a singular comics talent. Only Tradd could have visualized this story. And only Tradd could have executed it. The comics medium has been redefined forever". Probably laying it on thick there but is art style is kinda unique. Really liked his Silver Surfer art. Thot it was a perfect canvas for his flowy psychedelic style or whatchamacallit. Reminds me a bit of moebius.

lobrac Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 So what does this mean for the first appearance birth-page of Tragg from Mystery Comics Digest #3 (Gold Key, 1972)? Congrats to Tradd & Felix! SuperBird, Nexus and alxjhnsn 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ecclectica Posted April 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) Well, don't know what to really think about the prices... but I bought the MS and read it. It's a comic book, after all. On the art side, at first, I thought it was a sadomasochist move from my part, but I can say the guy has talent, and psychedelic art is not normally of my taste... There are some pages with very small incredible panels like in the origin recap here : I have convinced several other people around me ("This is going to rip your eyes at first, but you will see some great things after"). Glad to see an artist like this one. He represent the kind of diversity I like in comics (and it's a relief from the myriad of pages done in realistic way nowadays).
