Hi, all;

I've consigned the complete 17 page story colour guides for Detective Comics #471, written by Steve Englehart, Penciled by Marshall Rogers and hand-painted by Jerry Serpe, with additional colour updates by Marshall Rogers when the story was reprinted in the 1980's Shadow of the Batman mini-series (Baxter paper).

For whatever reason, Heritage initially chose to pile all 17 pages on top of one another for a crowded group shot and I feel it doesn't do the lot justice (Splash, Boss Thorne, Silver St. Cloud, Batman in Action, Monster Men, return of Hugo Strange, Batman ID revealed!), so I attached additional pics to better highlight the published splash page, and pages with Batman and other key characters in the story.

Hi, all

i was notified by Heritage that they were working on scanning and uploading all 17 pages.  However, they are not able to complete the task in a timely manner and removed the lot from the auction.

as soon as they confirm the rescheduled date for this lot, I will let you know on this thread.

Hi, all;

Because complete color guides from this era do not turn up too often, below please find the HA sales for the only other complete and (near) complete Rogers/Engelhart Detective interiors
