Pics from NYCC 2023 - Anyone take any?
SuperBird replied to Infamouspure22's topic in Original Comic Art
It was Aliens, so he sold them all. -

In this case, the artist took on an art rep who immediately told the artist to basically double all their prices. No art dealers or auctions involved. -

We stopped by a new artist Thursday morning, flipped through his book, asked about a few pieces he'd sold and the prices. He was pausing all sales because his art rep was coming by. By 2pm, post art rep, all the prices were 2x. On the one hand, good for him! On the other.... -
Hi, is there a way to find out what items sold for best offer on eBay actually sold for? Thanks!

Any Cankor fans able to lend a hand re: FMV?
SuperBird replied to troydivision1's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
I've never seen one sell before, but suspect if you threw it up with a BIN of $999 with "make an offer" you'd find out. -
Not that I can afford any of it, but Tradd has such a unique style that you can't really compare his work to other comic artists. That, combined with a lack of supply, and obviously the market thought the prices justified.

They sold within a half hour, if not faster…

Is this the most that new comic pages have ever sold for? (as in, freshly sold when the book was published)
-
Nope! I definitely recall it being a warehouse find.

My list, just focusing on cultural impact Action Comics/Superman - the first superhero, and still one of the most popular Detective Comics/Batman - he's Batman! ASM - the most popular super hero Avengers - the most popular/famous/successful group of heroes Watchmen - changed the nature of comic storytelling Dark Knight Returns - see above TMNT - massively popular for 40ish years now Sandman - launched the Vertigo line and all that came with it Bone - read by every kid growing up in school these day

Walking Dead for sure belongs on this list
-
Question- the 5 books you initially listed: Adventure Comics More Fun Comics The Brave and the Bold Showcase Shonen Jump I'm not familiar with Shonen Jump, but the others I am, and honestly couldn't put a finger on what cultural impact they have had. More Fun had 1st appearances of a few DC characters who have not had much exposure outside of comics, and Showcase has SA Flash, but I'm stumped on Adventure and B&B... I could see putting Action, 'Tec, ASM and FF on the list before the ones above. Just curious as the the thinking.

I disagree with the criteria of 100 issues/10 years. Almost none of the books listed above have the same creative team or ever writer over that period. Better off to think about specific runs or series with more consistency, e.g. creator-owned books with a definitive ending. If you want to stick with 100 issues/1 decade, I can think of only a few: Cerebus (can we just pretend issues 200-300 didn't happen?) Nexus 100 Bullets Grendel

The Black CAT club (Cerebus1, Albedo 2, TMNT1)
SuperBird replied to WolverineX's topic in Copper Age Comic Books
And 2 more black covers in the same batch. The Cerebus looks like a 9.4/9.6 to me. Not sure what happened there. -

IIRC, Primer 2 is also a warehouse find, so actually easier to find than Grendel 1? (at least according to the census)
