TeddieMercede Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 (edited) That page is the best in the book, Highly preferable to the cover, unless you're just a cover guy. Amazing piece of art. Edited September 17 by TeddieMercede Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhamlau Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 I like that, at least in this photo, most of the artwork seems pretty stable and non faded. This looks like something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xatari Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 (edited) I did a lot of research on that New Mutants run. Cool history behind it. During the 90s Rob used pencils on much smaller, thin paper which he would then Xerox to enlarge. From here, either he or Marat Mychaels would place the Bristol board down over these enlarged facsimile and either tightly pencil or ink. For more information straight from Rob and Marat about his process during this time check out the following Robservations podcasts at the specified time stamps. The Making of Deadpool part 3 - 52:00; 1:09:00 Here is the original penciled version for this same page which sold a while back on Heritage and is currently traveling with the Marvel Exhibition courtesy of Semmel.

cstojano Posted Tuesday at 02:13 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:13 PM (edited) The Eerie 1 cover posting yesterday really grabbed my attention. Its a fun exercise to look at the Nov auction page, in particular the thumbnails, to compare the NM 98 to something like the Eerie cover. I cannot tell what I am looking at with the former, just a very different style I suppose. Edited Tuesday at 02:14 PM by cstojano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, one is mainstream media and one isn't, so....... yeah. Very different styles and probably very different purchaser profiles too. tth2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are predictions on this one? That was a bit more of a singular, identifiable, example...the one page from that one issue that was indisputably the page that started it all for that character. Tends to lead to a more focused blood-sport bidding situation than one of many pages with the cover to the same issue also out there and available. So, it's not the best apples-to-apples....if we had some pages from 181 out there, that would feel more same end of the same pool at the same temperature kind of situation. buttock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
