Its impressive to see how big it was. Seeing it held - really helps us understand the enormaty of the art. Fabulous. It's amazing that Schultz did one of these plus all the dailies each week for so many years. Thanks for the great pick. Finally - and I may be reading into this- but that looks like the pride of a daddy holding his newborn baby on his face. Priceless! Congrats and have a cigar!

It's amazing to see wonder woman gone in this style. Such a departure for DC. Very cool!

The world is not coming to an end. But this does show that people have been thinking about if for some time.

Added a painted cover by Kyle Baker. Bizarro 1. Inspired by Uncle Fester cartoon by Charles Addams. Had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Baker at sdcc many years back. I asked him if he could draw a small cowboy Wally sketch for me. He said 'sure'. I passed him an 11x17 art board. On it he drew a 2 inch full body image of Wally with his feet touching the bottom edge of the page. I learned the meaning of not to say 'small' sketch ever again. His sense of humour - is why I appreciate Kyle Baker - but I have to add that this piece of art seems to have been done in many layers- but is so smooth that when I first got it I wondered if it was a print. Looking at it at an angle made it clear this was the real deal. See it on my caf HERE. Enjoy.

It hasn't always been there. But perhaps its been there longer than i noticed..as I asked for this feature a while back. Either way I think a lot of folks didn't see it. The specific feature that I asked for was published vs. Unpublished. The other sorts may have been there longer.

Ideally looking for painted covers - but panel pages from some of his indy titles would also be cool. As would set he collaborated with Mike Bair on. Thank you.

Looking for 1980s or early 90s Sakai Yojimbo published art from his own series, albedo or critters. Please reach out if you have something from this period to sell. Thank you!

On several occasions I had asked Bill Cox to add a filter to caf so I can filter the art into categories I care about. Today that feature seems to be operating. You can now sort published vs unpublished or see only covers or pages or sketches. Etc.. No need to wade through stuff that you dont care about. The filter function can be found at the top of the new art page. Big improvement!

wow! I had no idea so few members were premium. I support the site because I want it to survive. Hopefully the advertising does the rest.

These were some of the inconsistencies. Again wasn't sure if the line quality in the printed page was a effected by printing standards?

what's your opinion? many lines seem off to me -but I am not an expert on this one. ebay link

I would always buy the best example I could afford.you cant choose what art shows up when - but as I try and not hoard - I go for the best example I can. Quality o error quantity. Page or cover doesn't matter.

Yes. It was either Art Droids or Brit comics or something like that. They had prices on individual pages but said to email form a price on the whole thing. Trying to recall pricing - I think pages ranged 9-17k per page depending on the page if anyone here has a clearer memory - feel free to post.

I have bought digital pencil with traditional inks by 1 artist - but it's not optimal. I generally am old school and value such art far less than if it were 100%o paper. If all the great artists of the past and some of today's top guys can do it straight on paper - there is no reason why any current artist couldn't do so too if they wanted to. If an artist wants to use tricks on the computer (rely on digital tools/shortcuts)- I get it, but to me that makes it worth less as a piece of art. Maybe publishers dont care - but as a collector I see it as a negative relative to value placed on it. My 2 cents.

I think you forgot - Sal is top 5. Plus the last Sal cover at HA went sky high. No doubt incentivized someone to put this one up for auction.. Re:clutter- I think it's well composed. The eye moves around the page without much effort. Love the classic poses too.

I wonder if this thread ended in 2005 because folks started to use the new this week thread instead. Too bad none of the images from back then dont work. Crazy you dug this up Camd

What kind of security issues?

You can pay higher values with cc if you are ok to pay a cc fee. (2-3%? I cant recall exact amount. Perhaps someone here knows)

What's the advantage of this over camscanner?

Didnt realize the ebay was you - but was shocked on when I saw it. My guess would have been $300-500 of so. I watched the cartoon as a kid - so have a fondness - but only certain strip art runs those prices and heathcliff is not one of them. If someone ponies up - let us know and teach us a lesson on heathcliff value.

Had a conversation with another art collector recently and they mentioned they also collect slabbed comics (as well as raw copies) and the slabbed copies represented their OCD for having high grade copies. Then I got thinking that I am totally not OCD when it occured to me that - is being a collector (of stuff) in general - the very definition of OCD as collecting is not a rational behaviour? Finally in writing this - had rememberedthe umpteen threads here where collectors were 'picky'on things such as blue line vs all art, altering art, signatures on art, etc.. so does that mean we (collectors) are all OCD? Any thoughts?

So it's not exactly the same thing - but its a similar enough topic that it's worth mentioning it here. This past san diego I met another collector who had his own personal artist edition printed. An 11x17 hardcover book featuring all his new art from the past year. It looked great and he mentioned he did this as a way to' take the art around' and share at a public space like the sdcc without any worry of loss. He doesn't sell these - but has given a couple copies away. To me this seemed like a brilliant idea - and had thought to make one as a tradeable object with any other collector that made one of their collection (or part of). Not sure the thoughts on this - here on the boards.

Looks like PMS channelling Alberto vargas

A loss is a loss.. whether that's due to auction fees that are very high or other factors - it's the result that matters. If you get bit by a shark but it doesnt kill you, but then you die due to infection a week later - you are still dead. It's the result that matters.

Interesting to see this one in your gallery. Batman cover And compare to Byrne Wolverine cover
