    WTF are you talking about?

    Heath, Williamson, Brunner, Adams, etc. were incredibly accurate yet never boring.

    What I’m talking about is back when Kirby started, 99.999% of the comic book artists drew stiff, boring art that was very 2 dimensional. They were trying to be accurate with regard to the human form and figure, but it did not translate well most of the time. Kirby’s art was fresh, dynamic, invigorating, and exciting. He focused more on motion and action, than precision correctness. I doubt he has any regrets about it!

    Hey there!

    Thanks for the good words, although I'm sorry to hear you're not interested if they are auctioned at Comiclink...do you just not bid with them for some reason?  I wanted to give them a shot at some real OA because they've always been great with me personally, but I understand that everyone has different experiences.

    No, no, CL is great!  I just need a good 3-4 months to sell stuff so I can afford to put in a serious offer.  If I was offered this back in May, I'd have the money to buy it now.

    Oh, and I guess this is the forum for a shameless plug of my two pieces in this CLINK auction -- take a look!

    Love me some '70's Marvel Team-Up with Gil Kane and Sal B...

    Wish I knew this was for sale before it went to CL. I’d have made a very strong offer on it. Best of luck on them!

    Wonderful splash . . . the  #18 cover is my favorite, though this two-parter is probably third on my list, with The Master Planner trilogy first, followed by the Crime Master two-parter.

    Here is THE KEY page to the Master Planner Trilogy where Spider-Man learns the true identity of the Master Planner!

    Church ad art was turning up fairly regularly in the weekly Heritage Auctions for a while several years ago. I don't follow OA closely enough to know whether it was all coming from a specific collection. If you search completed auctions you'll find hundreds of pieces. IIRC @Timely has sold some here on the boards, but I might be misremembering.

    Edgar Church art.
