I am approaching the time to begin selling my collection and I need some advice. I have complete CGC 9.8+ runs of bronze/copper/modern X-Men and Wolverine. It would be easy to pull the bronze books, keys, mint books, rare sigs etc. and consign them for auction. But, then what do I do with the moderns and commons? I could see myself selling 100 books on eBay but I don’t want to sell 1000.

Sam Kieth please.

Do not kill it with fire! You have talent and this is a very fine first sketch cover 👍

Unfortunately I think all the Best of the Best threads got shut down in 2012. They were fun but the multiple threads were crowding up the forum and ultramanking had to create a separate web page to keep track of all the categories and winners, Your book is sweet!

I received my awesome gift box from spidermanbeyond and it was great. Plenty of new stuff to read. Some funny Deadpool Slurpee cups. A new shirt to wear to cons. This was my only comic-related gift this year and it was perfect.

I'm in. Marvel Comic Presents 89 & 90 CGC 9.6 SS signed by the great Sam Kieth.

Loved the Finch. I think this painted Tadeo is also amazing.

Please put me on the list for this when it comes up. Finishing my Kieth SS run is a priority for me.

Is another Kieth signing a possibility? I know he rarely does shows.

You are welcome. Crain has also done beautiful runs on Spectacular Spider-Man and Ghost Rider and Valiant titles. His paintings of Venom, Carnage, Deadpool and Ghost Rider are some of the very best commissions you will ever see.

Here is an example of his X-Force style Wolverine. One unique take on Wolverine that Crain introduced has to do with Wolverine's claws. Most artists draw the claws very strictly parallel to each other. Crain thought it would be interesting to have his claws behave more like Edward Scissorhands.

This is one of my favorite Crains. It is a recreation of a cover he did for a Wolverine/Punisher miniseries. He used fluorescent paint for the cigar tip so it actually glows in the dark.

Crain was the artist on X-Force for an epic run. He had an original take on Wolverine and you can see a number of images on Google. His comics are all done digitally but when Crain does sketch covers, he prefers to use acrylic paints so there is a difference between his painted Wolverines and his published Wolverines. Wolverine is my favorite character and I have been fortunate to get a number of different Wolverines from Crain. I'll post a few for you. This one is Crain's official contribution to the Weapon X HERO project.

Thank you my friend.

Here's a new Crain you haven't seen before.

Ha! Thanks, Nino. I have been blessed. I currently have 28 Crains and a few more in the pipeline.

All right I am going to join Jason and return from my posting hiatus. I missed you guys. And what better way to return that with new Clayton Crain masterpieces? They are all acrylic paints on blank covers. The Walking Dead cover is me and my family :-)

I need a new scanner too. Does HP have anything newer than the 8300 that works just as well?

That was Bill's first watercolor on a sketch cover. He did such a great job.

I love this book.

Nicely done.

That's a grail right there (thumbs u Dang, you posted quite the followup today- link!! I'm going for back-to-back!
