    Every artist since Jim Lee has drawn like Jim Lee.  Portacio, Campbell, Finch, Charest, etc. etc.  Who can tell the difference?    

    One small tweak here - Jim Lee copied Whilce Portacio, not the other way around. 

    When Jim was breaking in he was lifting his style from everyone like a sponge, including studio-mate Whilce.

    There are plenty of Jim Lee clones out there, but Whilce should not be grouped in among them.

  3. This reminds me of when the ASM328 cover sold a decade ago. Crazy price, the market moved, but...we haven't seen a $600k McSpidey since.

    Does anyone actually know if it was bought by a fan vs investor? Spending 4-5x the hobby high does not seem like you'll be making a profit anytime soon, but I could totally see fans going not_in_tune_with_social_norms crazy like this :)

    News to me, I wasn't going there but my gf at the time was. She wasn't into comics, so I never heard of it.

    Please tell me you guys went to Words and Pictures, that was such a cool thing while it existed.

    I went once or twice and remember it vividly!! Except again, sadly, I wasn't as into comic art back then and didn't appreciate how amazing it was. I can still remember walking through the art floor, or the full sized turtles hanging from a wall. They had paper out so you could draw. It was such a cool place:) I'm sure I would be shocked at what was on those walls...

    My greatest fear in the world as a child came from Beastmaster....those bat people who wrapped people up and at them while holding them....scared the F--K out of me.

    Yup, horrifying. But on the flip side, Kodo and Podo are the coolest friggin' ferrets in history!

    For me it was always the dog thing from The Neverending Story. Nightmares...

     

    And speaking of The Neverending Story, the original painting and tons of others appear available as an exhibit from Casaro. Has anyone ever seen this exhibit or booked it? That seems insanely cool...
