I didn't really set any specific collecting goals for 2013. I hoped to find and buy one page, splash or cover, but really had no target in mind. Of course I always have my running want list in my signature line, but what are the chances I will ever be able to find something on that list (shrug)

 

I guess 100% this year !

my current want list:

 

- A Kirby/Sinnott FF cover or excellent page

- A John Buscema Silver Surfer cover

- A great James Jean Fables cover

- A great John Byrne X-Men example

- At least one great trophy/"halo" piece to cap off my collection

 

2 great, fully-painted James Jean Fables covers and one of my favorite Byrne X-Men panel pages from the run acquired in the past week. Still looking for an exceptional Kirby/Sinnott FF example, a Buscema Silver Surfer cover and a great Adams Batman page. After that, just being opportunistic if/when certain nostalgic favorites turn up or are let go by their owners. :wishluck:

Happy New Year! Anyone care to share some comic art goals for the year? I figure sharing my want list can't really hurt. I'm going to try to stay focused. Looking for the following

 

Preacher page with Saint of Killers.

Another Y: The Last Man cover. Prefer 29, 33, 38, or 58

Early Marvel Transformers cover. Prefer 25

Death of Superman page from the original storyline.

 

Reviving this thread after two years to announce that I actually got one of the pieces from my goals! Pretty excited about this one. When I was about 10 years old, I absolutely loved Transformers and especially Optimus Prime. It was rare for me to like the hero back but Optimus was the man! Then in the movie, he died and I have to admit, I kinda freaked out. I heard about it at school and I refused to watch it. I guess if I didn't see it, it never happened! lol Then a few months later, I saw this on the comic book rack and was immediately intrigued by the cover. Megatron deserved what was happening to him! After reading the story, I was really intrigued by the differences in the plot. I had one friend who had some Transformers comics and read them trying to piece things together. But this comic was my baby. I would carry it around in my back pocket for weeks, reading and rereading it. I even tried drawing/tracing some of the scenes. Anyway, I have to thank Joe Sherman for letting this go. I know he is a hardcore Transformers nut and I am thankful he allowed a few pieces to make their way to my collection.

By the way, I am still looking for certain items. Check my want list on CAF

 

 

 

And I also added some other TF pieces. More write up in these than I usually do but I am totally geeking out. Forgive me. lol
