This is great! She is one of the artists being featured at NYC's Austria Cultural Forum... if you click through here, there's a short interview with her and a video tour of the exhibit.

I remember meeting Ms Renee at the SDCC many years ago. A small older lady just sitting by herself. I introduced myself and explained how much I enjoyed her work. I had brought a Fight, a Planet and an early Abbott & Costello for her to sign. She graciously signed them for me. I think she liked the Abbott and Costello the most. She was pretty quiet and seemed very surprised that anyone would care “about those silly comic books I drew so many years ago”. She said she always felt she was a more serious artist but had to do comics to pay her bills. I believe this was the only comic book show she ever attended. She apparently left a couple days early. Was great to meet her and chat for a few minutes. 

Oh, I asked her if she ever met Matt Baker. She smiled and said a couple of times and said he was a “dashing young man”.

Getting back into collecting GA after a hiatus of some years. I think this is a nice way to start!

Wow, very excited to get this one in the mail today!

Thanks to John(JB123) for letting me get this one. And it's even sweeter because I might have even caught Comcav sleeping to win this one. Well... that's my story anyway and I am sticking to it!

Nice book and solid copy! I sold my low grade under copy for a pittance about a year ago. Hey, I bought it a hundred years ago for nothing so I made out great. But books like this are on fire right now! Great grab.

Can't remember if I posted these.
