Thanks, I try to keep prices reasonable. I am a collector and only sell when I have to.

I posted several pieces for sale on CAF with art by John Byrne Mark Buckingham Budd Root Graham Nowlan Shane Glines and more... Please take a browse: https://www.comicartfans.com/galleryroom.asp?gsub=201579

He's also cross promoting it on CAF. Just trying to get the most eyes... but once you signed up with Clink, I thought they had exclusive rights to the sale (so , no ebay)

Glad it was resolved and sorry to hear about your experience. Buyers beware! There are tons of artists that have similar reputations, where they have trouble (to say the least) with shipping out finished artwork. My friend successfully ordered predone pieces from Larry through facebook (against my recommendation). But they arrived promptly (ish) without heartache. Now my friend just has a few artists left that he's been waiting 4-7 years on. I had only 1 issue with a commission/shipping , and that involved Bill Sienkiewicz. After 3-4 months I started (internally) freaking out. This was over a decade ago, and in hindsight I wish I had been more patient because all I did was cause myself aggravation. 3-4 months is nothing, artists are flighty and unless they completely disappear off social media (this was pre-facebook) there is always a chance to get your art (...eventually). When i make purchases through ebay, I much have higher standards.

Check out the seller's closed auctions. https://www.ebay.com/itm/313061757214 Firstly, can it be proven that they are vintage? That is my main concern. I'm not jealous, but am more concerned that a dealer will pass them off as Bob Kane sketches - without any proof. Its a shame that Shelly Moldoff or Lew Schwartz aren't around to chime in. Assuming they are old, the set is such an oddity, to me it makes the most sense that someone at DC created them (as, who else would have had access to all the comics?) as a reference for Finger or other writers/artists. So they could reuse characters, or not unintentionally repeat names. my . take it for what it's worth.

What is the consensus, are they authentic vintage art? If the seller was just offering the "main" villains, I would have been more likely to suspect they were all fakes. But who spends the time to draw dozens of random Golden age thugs? Very impressive final numbers. Well over $1,000 on several of them. Were the winners bidding crazy, hoping they were by Bob? Or does it not matter, because they are just cool really-early fan art? I just couldn't pull the trigger on any.

One of Jim Steranko's $150 Fury Icon sketches, on comic board. Jim brings these to every show, as an affordable option for fans. They typically sell for $150-300 on ebay (depending on how many auctions are running). Seeing the $1,200 price tag was jaw dropping.

Here’s a nice HB piece for under $3k, plus has a detailed sketch on the back https://www.nostalgicinvestments.com/fridays

As a 1990's Batman reader, Azrael is my favorite, followed by the Doctor. Partially because I never thought Azrael would be picked (let alone, so early). Jim's auctions, along with Mike Mignola's sketch posts, are a daily joy!

Batman art from the Contagion storyline Poor Robin caught it, and it’s a race against the clock to find a cure!

It was offered by Anthony Snyder earlier. He picked up a bunch of McNiven prelims and sold them on eBay or through his site. Probably sold in the range of $500-$800

I thought it looked off, and seeing the published piece, now it makes sense. ut oh, Heritage is falling for fakes (and did no diligence)

congrats! My heart wasn’t in it, so I’m really happy that you found the page you’ve been after! Great price too!

Was it a McNiven Wolverine? Because he works that way on the pencils, illustrating each panel on a separate paper. There was an awesome Wolverine just on ebay, that I lost ( congrats if it was to you ) So to say the pencils are all digital, seems a misleading. I considered this quandary myself. But since I didn't win the auction, I no longer have to worry about buying the inks
