Based on what? Outside of comics fans, he's a kiddie cartoon figure... the only relevant SM to Gen Z is Tom Holland, and most of that is due to Zendaya

Wow, you’re losing a lot of credibility with statements like this.

No, I just live in the real world and have 2 young adults who are plugged in and answer questions about these matters... I'm not living in my parents' basement playing video games in a shirt stained with cheese doodles, telling myself my longboxes will make me a millionaire

No disrespect, but when you say a kiddie cartoon figure, are you referring to any of the Spiderverse films? Because I've never read a Miles Morales Spiderman comic, and the quality of those films have made this 63 year old Spidey non-reader an ardent fan!!!

Dude, you WORK in the industry... it's sort of assumed you would be an ardent fan

My only takeaway from this is that there's NO WAY you're 63. This is a typo right? You're a kid. A KID.

Insanity!

Some head scratchers today. Hard to figure what's going on with some pieces.

That said, I didn't think this was a particularly strong selection of art for the Platinum Session and we've seen other quiet Platinum Sessions over the past year or two only to see the buyers come out of the woodwork for the other sessions, so, I think the jury is still very much out. Could just be that there weren't any real showstoppers in this session.

Is there any way we can discover who is it that keeps slow rolling their bids to "last and final call" and making so many pieces take forever to finish? 

I'd like to know that.

 You and I both wish! That said, it will be a typo in a few days when I turn 64!

Yeah, some very impressive prices.  For those priced out of today's live bidding, there's still lots of goodies during Sunday's auction.

Thats a head scratcher.

Hard to estimate any sort of price on so many pieces as comparatively a lot of these results make no sense.

[cstojano]

In my niche corner of the world the last month has established that a key interior page can sell for more than a cover (Eddie Campbell From Hell).

Guice Indy TOJ seemed about right based on pre-auction numbers I was hearing. 

[Kryptic1]

Wow, $102k for the Quesada Daredevil cover.  At this rate, Mandel is going to have enough money for another X-Wing by the end of the auction.
