I may put in a tracking bid but I generally don’t bid at all until the end. -

Beatles Yellow Submarine for the win! I kept thinking this looks familiar and that was it. GREAT art and I am admirer of Tradd's. I am always happy to see sucess. Felix is a very smart operator and did a great job for his artist. If the market didn't like it then it wouldn't have sold. Who cares whether the value will be more or less unless you only bought to flip it at some point and then, you are kinda missing the point of the great art. The fact that the art is fun and and great to look at will never change.

Heritage December 10 comic and comic art auction
Superhero replied to drdonaldblake1's topic in Original Comic Art
I think it was a huge mistake to put so many pieces focused on a few characters (Dr. Fate and Spectre) in the same auction. Too many great pieces particular to my collecting to get very many of them. I was the underbidder on a few that I otherwise would have gone higher on. -

Just love this one of Cooke channeling Kirby cause I can't tell the difference Sorry for the crappy image. -
I have every book digitally now and hypertext linked. It is so easy to look up things. I love the old books but I also like modern technology. Funny enough, I doctor friend contacted me last week to maybe try to get a game together. I haven't played in about 20 years so I am looking forward to oiling my rusty skills.

Me too. I have a few copies since I wore out my original version with the Melnibonean and Cthulhu Mythos I had to buy another that was as pristine as I could find.

Agreed. I was going to bid on it because its amazing but that price is miles beyond what I thought it would go for. That is the sad thing to me. I now have no real concept of fair market value anymore. -

So the question for me is does this crazy auction cause a stampede of people to sell their art causing a decline in the market due to supply or does it cause people to hold onto their art and create demand that vastly exceeds demand driving prices much higher? Or something different, pigs fly, Hell freezes over, dogs and cats living together....just what does this mean? -

Well done summary. Seems like they are just testing the waters to offload inventory that is subpar. It's the same collector(s) each time buying pieces and at least one recently appeared on a rival show....coincidence or are these the only collectors that are actually buying?

Congrats to the buyer on this. Just curious if this piece is historically significant or if there is a reason other than more than one person really wanted it why it went so high. No doubt its a cool piece but $90K seems a lot. -

Everyone knew this was coming. First time I will miss in 20 years. Sad.

Neal Adams Todd McFarlane George Perez Brian Bolland Art Adams Steranko Alex Ross All of the above influenced other artists and made a huge impact on the art of comics and how they were perceived. I also think each advanced the medium significantly.

I stared at the 251 recreation on Neal's site for several years knowing the original cover was well beyond me so I eventually picked it up. link below. It is a great piece. I confirmed with him that it was all him. The title/logo/trade dress are stats on a separate overlay. I talked to Neal about it for a while. At that time, he didn't know if the original cover still existed or who might have it. Interesting thing is I know he did it in the late 90's early 2000s but he dated the certificate of authenticity when I purchased it instead of when he actually drew it. https://www.comicartfans.com/gallerypiece.asp?piece=807921
