Given that you don't really like D ick Dillin, have you ever seen any Dillin Phantom Stranger art that you do like ?

It’s all the same problem. Simple lines, basic page structures, perfect for a coloring book.Could there be some nice pages? Maybe, if you like the style. I don’t. Shame too, because I have seen a little pre-JLA artwork that I liked much more.

Speaking of the Phantom Stranger, I saw the cover Anthony had up for a couple years finally sold recently. I hate that you didn't get that one.

No worries. I've been following that one around by Dominquez since it was $3K. I've got a better one:

Wow, that one is MUCH better and I'm so glad you have it. I was honestly worried when I saw someone else bought it.

 And I thought I had a tight focus. I'm loosey-goosey compared to that. How often do you unearth older Phantom Stranger pieces?

The problem is that I have most of the artists who did the older ones, or I haven't found one I really liked. I've also learned to kick myself when I pass on one and wait sometimes forever to find a replacement. Passed on a few Perez versions (not in his book of course), and I am stll looking for a page from PS 35 by our favorite Warlord artist (I'm making do with a preliminary sketch/convention sketch I found on line), so I mostly get newer stuff, and lean towards the more obscure. The old stuff? Maybe once every 6-9 months (and getting rarer). I have never, ever found his first series work (which would be by Carmine Infantino on pencils).

It was one of three Dominguez covers sold from a private collector many years ago. The other one was the voodou doll.

Let me add that if anyone sees PS pages which aren't on CA Tracker, feel free to let me know. Except Adams. I have that base covered, too.

I remember them all well.
