NelsonAI Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Are the current pieces inked in marker, India ink or combo? Cheers! N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Seffinga Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Is it me, or has Frank been studying with Gahan Wilson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vodou Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Here is a cool one Frank gave me this morning to list for him. I dig it. Not feeling this one at all. Give Bats a cane and Mr. Natural beard...I may change my mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Seffinga Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Might help cover the cold sores? To me Carrie looks more and more like Matt Murdock as time goes on... Goofing aside, I do quite like the drawing from the Batsymbol down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give Bats a cane and Mr. Natural beard...I may change my mind I understand. Again, I'm just happy to see new (to me) art from Frank, so this is a great time for me, because I don't mind his new style, and there seems to be more than ever available to view.

There were actually a couple Batmans Frank passed along this time. Though they have mostly all found new homes already. So ill let the owners decide to share them if they want. I do want to thank Grails for sending the Jock Original DK3 #1 cover over. Frank was very happy when he heard that you were willing to allow him the chance to add it to his collection.

wormboy Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 It's very interesting to me that Frank wanted that Jock cover. (It's the head shot of Batman, correct?). It looks almost identical to Frank's art. That was my favorite non-Miller variant. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman_Fan Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Dreadful. Is that comment serious or in jest? Oh he is serious. Lets just say Mitch and Frank dont get along and leave it at that. Doug, You know nothing about how I get along with Frank. I have no problems with Frank. If he has a problem with me, I know nothing about it. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Frank. There are many, many variables that come into play between Frank and I. Things you will never know. Like I know you're getting that art from Frank's assistant. You're not dealing with Frank directly, regardless what you might say. I really like that Batman & Carrie piece, the more Dark knight I see, the more it grows on me. Doug (or Mitch), do know if the assistant is contributing to the art being sold? Are the pieces confirmed to be 100% by Frank? This may have been covered elsewhere, but with Frank's health issues I hope you don't mind confirming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are 100% from Frank he is in the room each and every time they are handed to me or Jason (most times they are handed to us directly by Frank). He picks out which ones to give us and lets us know what he wants for them. We see him 1-3 times a month in person in his studio and each time he is very active and engaging in conversation about anything we want to talk about. From Disneys Frozen to Dark Knight. Also I should point out that Frank does not have an assistant, whoever is spreading that rumor is obviously far more removed from Franks everyday life than most. He is indeed his own man these days. The closest he has to an assistant are his two security guards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comic artist, comic writer, screen writer, film director, producer, etc etc etc. Frank stopped being just an artist a long long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Seffinga Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Yeah, I get that of course, but still really odd to me. I've been around a number of "celebrities" over the years. Artists, writers, film industry types and just plain uber wealthy folks that never had or felt a need for a security guard, much less two. I get it with the A lister elite and the paparazzi psychosis that surrounds them. But Frank Miller? Comes as a bit of a shock to me, so what do I know. Good on 'em!
