  1. No sympathy for the oligarch. He paid an asking price he was happy with at the time and also flipped that questionable davinci for a 300mm profit. Cry me an f’ing river. Don’t get me wrong, everyone else involved sucks too. Just not quite as much.
  2. I'm just over here quietly hoping we finally see a decent Fabry Preacher cover in this auction
  3. Yep, a large canvas from the Deitch show and a retired stencil collage (30x30" - stencil used to make a print included in The Doors vinyl box set):
  4. Those are both great calls. Totally forgot about that AIBO dog. I have an 8 year old and wonder what his generation will collect later. He's really into multiplayer online games like Fortnight and Minecraft and would rather have the virtual items in-game than any associated physical merchandise. I'm not sure what will remain when those games inevitably go offline.
  5. I think we all realize that. Most collectibles follow a similar lifecycle. OP is asking for the next thing to hoard to be ahead of the curve.
  6. The great thing about Shep prints is that there's always a new one to buy next week if you miss out on one. The guy is a machine The ones with the most upside are already over a grand IMO (early works, which are almost impossible to find in nice shape and key images from the later periods). I cashed in all Obey prints about 10 years ago and used that money to fund a couple grade A originals.
  7. Agreed. It's especially noticeable because of his otherwise hyper-realistic style.
  8. I don't think this will work on the screen and I really don't think Netflix is the right choice to produce it. I'd describe their best shows as superficial - competently produced and well acted, but lacking the depth of HBO's best. Their worst shows are just unwatchable. Hopefully they prove me wrong.
  9. Watch it reboot in October with Fear the Walking Dead #1 by a new creative team
  10. And so quickly, too. That was only, what...16 years ago?
  11. My bad - I misread that post as the final results.
  12. I'd say $1200 ballpark based on recent results. I'd rank it a bit below this page NSN discussed back in September: PREACHER 10 Page 02 - $1300 Jesse, Tulip, Gran'ma, Jody and young Jesse on a page from the arc that seems to be everyone's favorite. Preacher pages are down a bit since the show hype has faded.
  13. This is one of the silliest things I've ever read on this board. Pretty much every comic artist ever (and yes, I realize this is hyperbole) has pushed gratuitous T&A to sell books to the fanboys, but you're a "bad artist" if you slip a dong in there. C'mon.
  14. There's also going to be a lot of color variation between copies of the original book due to age and condition issues. You're probably better off looking for a reprint or just going off of the pic you posted. Otherwise, I think the only way to be sure you're looking at the original color as it was printed is to turn up a high grade (likely pedigree) copy of the book, which seems unlikely at best.
  15. Early page Decent dialogue Jesse and Tulip Boring scene I'd still BIN it at $1K tho
  16. What did you get back in trade from Frank? You can't leave us hanging like that
  17. I just saw this and sent a join request. I don't have any game artwork, but I love looking at it!
  18. I spilled coffee on a Preacher page. It cleaned up pretty well but the stain always annoyed me so I sold it. Still ended up getting full market value, so I guess it didn't bother the buyer.
  19. Woah! East of West show rumors?!? I seriously need to pop in here more often. I never thought this book would be adaptable, but I'm glad they're giving it a shot.
  20. Woah...do you realize that the post you replied to is going on 12 years old? Impressive.
  21. Just popped back in for the first time in a few months and see that I got a shout out Still reading and loving EoW - it's the best book out there right now IMO
  22. I considered bidding, but then totally forgot comicconnect had an auction ending last night It's not the most memorable page, but it is a nice self-contained scene with a great shot of V in the last panel.
