A seller had it at $40-45k, and it sold just under $15k. Doesn’t mean the price was soft, just maybe it was overpriced when offered on the dealers website.

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? Maybe consignors not wanting to lose their pants on their art? jjonahjameson11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Turner Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 It looked to me like all of the Don Heck art sold at pretty solid prices. (10k for that Tales of Suspense 45 page bodes well for me as I have a page from that book too!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Browning Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 The Ragman splash was actually by Broderick and Tanghal with breakdowns by Giffen and has almost no visible Giffen art at all. Breakdowns they may be, but that art is almost entirely by Broderick and Tanghal and anyone who knows anything about Giffen and Broderick art can see that.

Saw a lot of MK pieces that almost all came from the same person which were pieces that had been at auction in recent years, some more than once. The MK #1 page I recall sold on Heritage originally for around $3,500 but had a reserve of over $29,600 here which it didn't hit. The cover was nice I thought and went for a nice price for the buyer compared to the first cover from that series that sold for I think double a few years back on Clink. Somewhat expected I guess since the artist isn't well known. Edited September 8, 2023 by DeadpoolJr. cloud cloddie and jjonahjameson11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The splash is page 24 in the issue, the end page to the story. HA listed the page number correctly, Comiclink did not (they had it as page 1). Per credits, Broderick only worked on page 22.

Lucky Baru Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) Does anyone have thoughts on the Bloom County daily strip’s hammer price of $2001.00. It had Opus in all the panels. It provided the first look at the offspring of Rosebud the Basselope and Hodge-Pudge. I’m alway curious about any information on the strip as it was a favorite of mine to read in the 1980’s. I’d like to add an example of the strip to my collection in the future. Thanks. Edited September 9, 2023 by Lucky Baru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
