AnkurJ Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Didn't see any threads on this. What were everyone's thoughts on the sale? Seemed that some prices were soft. The two Thor covers for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexG_art Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) The Jason Fabok Batman #21 Watchmen Button Flashpoint cover's stood out. A seller had it at $40-45k, and it sold just under $15k. Edited September 7, 2023 by AlexG_art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud cloddie Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 It was interesting seeing some of the pieces purchased not long ago, offered several times since, not even come close to the reserves. Twanj and grapeape 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be from a single seller. Maybe buyer's remorse or raising funds for something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtcheap31 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 I thought the Tony Moore page did well thought the Tim sale DPs and Long holloween might have been a little light those were strong pages…the kubert x-men page was a great pick up for someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstoppablejayd Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Mixed bag but definitely on the soft side as you said the Thor covers where soft , the mad X-men page sold for a ton more within the year (someone took a bath on that) Clink auction timing also continues to confound me.. two days after Labor Day, kids starting school.. against a heritage auction at the same time . They either have really bad luck with timing or don’t really consider what’s going on in the rest of the world.

g-man Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Thought the Sale DV DPS went low but the LH page fighting Scarecrow did ok. The Adams Batgirl commission went low and it’s a beauty. The MK #1 page did not meet reserve? Great battle page by Sienkiewicz. TOS 97 complete story seemed low but just an observation. Don’t have the data on hand.

fsumavila Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 The 2 pages from Dazzler #4 sold for very strong prices, $2700 & $2500. Those are the highest prices yet for any Dazz pages at auction, outside the splash from #3 and a 1/2 splash from #2. didn't really keep an eye on the rest of the auction, purposely, as I'm waiting on the heritage auction.

gumbydarnit Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Seems as the prices are softening ALMOST enough to get me off the sidelines. I had my finger on the the button for two pages if there weren't a little bidding at the end I would have landed one. With Comiclink you can have more pieces end without a flurry of bidding at the close. If they fell through the cracks - I was in the basement ready to catch em ; ) Twanj and jjonahjameson11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyCollector Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 A few bidders really wanted the Alan Davis Excalibur page featuring Meggan... ended at 4400, which was def a good amount over recent HA results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyCollector Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) The Sal B Avengers page with Black Panther and Palmer inks was an absolute steal at 4000... hope a collector got it Edited September 7, 2023 by KirbyCollector comichut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjonahjameson11 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Overall, prices for the majority of items were soft…a good buying opportunity for those into Bagley and J Scott Campbell art…prices were very soft on these items. the Art Adams Nightcrawler cover and Batgirl were also particularly poor performers. the McSpidey half-splash at $51K … on the one hand, seemed kinda light for a half splash, but it featured d-level villains. Yet it had a great ‘discombobulated hips’ Spidey middle panel. I was expecting $50K at the very low end, $75K at the upper end. also noticed a lot more items than usual with reserve prices. Perhaps a hedge against another unscheduled shutdown? Decreased confidence in Clink’s performance? A weakening market? Thoughts? Twanj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman_fan Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Some of the stuff I was tracking. DD splash (which was awesome), a little lighter than I expected. Peanuts Peppermint Patty daily - on the weak side, I suspect Tim was happy to snag it given he is the #1 PP fan Romita Spiderman cover - Very strong price Nova page - on the high side but not a crazy price tth2 and KirbyCollector 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It ended exactly where it should. the Sal Buscema Nova page wasn’t on the high side at all. In fact, it underperformed mtlevy1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
