    Paul Smith! The epitome of right place right time. I’ve wanted a Paul sketch for awhile but never was quick enough to respond. last week, 11pm, on Comic Art Tracker I notice he’s on the top of the page. I quickly go to his site and there are 3 drawings unsold. I make a snap judgement (but easy for me as I LOVE Silver Age Marvel) and picked up this. So stoked to add this to the collection!

    It looked to me like all of the Don Heck art sold at pretty solid prices. (10k for that Tales of Suspense 45 page bodes well for me as I have a page from that book too!)

    I have the prelim for the first appearance (birth page) of kid Loki I bought it for 15 euros. Paid more for shipping than for it (and I LOVE it)

    I have a Wally Wood Daredevil #6 prelim page. I paid $800. The page it helped create is about $30,000. i’d like to think I got a pretty good deal, but maybe I’m wrong 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I won the 2 page (one board) marvel spotlight 14 auction Birth page of Katherine Reynolds (familiar with SOS fans only I suspect) so excited to claim it. I was out of town without access to a phone or computer so I placed my highest bid and crossed my fingers. got to within $100 of my max, but I still won it!

    I commissioned this from Mike Vosburg via CAFLive. Contacted him on Sunday, he responded within the hour, and put this in the mailbox yesterday. I said I was looking for a She-Hulk circa 1980 sketch and here’s what he came up with! Man, he smashed it out of the Ballpark! Mike himself wrote me and said this is one of his favorite drawings he’s ever done of She-Hulk! Mike is a class act

    Commissioned a quick sketch by the great Rudy Nebres of the Jack of Hearts. Just about the size of a trading card but, lots of detail and attention paid to it! Turned out really great!

    this panel might be the best image of the Hulk in the entire Silver Age!

    As a “key Marvel Silver Age” guy, I’d say this auction has some heavy hitters

    I managed to sneak away with this out of the C-Link auction I’m a big Scarlet Witch and Vision fan, but my collection is primarily first and key appearance pages, so this one solved that problem nicely as the birth of Billy and Tommy was one of the most significant moments in their history (and, since my wife is a big WandaVision fan, and they echoed this scene on the show, it earned me bonus points in her eyes 🤣) Vision and Scarlet Witch 12 pg 32 Howell and Springer 1986

    I think for me, it’s simply just I’m not a “sword and sandal fantasy” kind of guy. Frazetta probably is great, but my eye never lingers on the page long enough to take it in, or to develop an eye for what separates him from his contemporaries

    Did anyone win anything in yesterday’s ComicLink auction? any thoughts about prices yesterday and what they suggest about the state of the hobby?

    Mike Ploog Marvel Spotlight 5 page sold for 50k last June 40k today…

    That Kirby/Stone FF 30 page went for 12.6 with BP there are dealers selling Kirby/Stone pages for 2x that Not sure if the market is speaking or if the market is softening (and yes I understand that page to page comparisons would have some impact on price)
  15. Grant Turner
    Not just you, I thought so too

    Picked this up from Albert. I recently sold my one Timm piece, and just felt like I still needed some Timm in my collection

    For those of you who collect first appearance art, at quick glance, I see 8 first appearance pages from some Marvel big names… may be more Black Knight Captain Marvel (Monica Rambeau) Iron Fist Iron Man MODOK She-Hulk Thunderbird Warlock

    OA and yes. I actually had 2 bigger ticket items in the Heritage auction and they tanked hard! 😔
  22. Grant Turner
    I had a few things in the c-link auction and a few in last week’s Heritage Wednesday my c-link stuff actually exceeded my expectations. Heritage however…
  23. Grant Turner
    Moved a lot of things around to make room for this! Marvel Super Heroes 18 pg 20. First GOTG who else picked up a page from this book in the last Heritage auction?
  24. Grant Turner
    Got this from Brent Peeples. Brent was great and got the art within a month of making the requesT!
