Non-appearance pages from 1st Appearance issues...nothing special (and no premium should apply) beyond whatever the actual content is imo. Unless one or more parties are actively attempting to put the story/book back together. And even so, that's more attributable to the completion attempt not the 1st Appearances on other pages aspect, except as it may be a driver behind the completion attempt. Which is why I am interested in how well that Batman #232 Panel with Ras Al Guhl in it that is up at Heritage right now, does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are all of these 85-95 year olds who were around when Action comics #1 came out and are spending hundreds of thousands, and even millions of dollars for a copy? They must be extremely nostalgic and very well off, eh? There aren't a lot of people spending that kind of money, for one. Second, you are referring to an iconic comic. When markets drop, they tend to be the last to sink. The post-War books until the end of the Golden Age will drop before Action 1 (special issues will hold out a while, too).

Lee B. Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Your latest article was a great read Rich! I totally missed those Mike McKone pages. It's impressive see nice-looking panel pages featuring major super-heroes selling for less than $125. It seems like there continues to be fine art to be had at entry-level prices. I'm also surprised that the Alan Davis Excalibur prices are holding up after seemingly months of those pages appearing in the Heritage weekly auctions. Thanks a lot for the very kind shout-out to my website as well. I think there is still a lot of room for additional original comic art-related content online, and you have done a great job of keeping a discussion going with your weekly columns. Keep up the good work! Best, Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twanj Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Yes, thanks as always. Is there a story behind the 2 a week Excalibur pages that keep trickling out? Must have been a great collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been a great collection. I thought the pages could possibly have come from Gary Land's collection, but Gary seems to have quite a large collection still posted on CAF. I suppose when you have an artist working on a title for so long, several large collections could have developed over the years. The pages on Heritage always seem to be of pretty high quality.

Dick O. Posted January 17, 2018 Author Share Posted January 17, 2018 Really appreciate your support and encouragement @Lee B.! Likewise, you keep up the good work too @Twanj I don't have any insight on where they come from, but am impressed with how prices keep going from strength to strength!

I feel the comic OA hobby could do with more of that. It seems like he has a higher view on the matter coming from 100-year-old illustration art than the crossover comic collectors we often see. Keep the interviews coming! Written or audio -- both have been great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
