Figured he could maybe use a thread, as he is getting a lot of attention for his covers lately and seems to be the new cover artist du jour.

Lots of cool covers to choose from, with Venomized covers being his latest calling card. 
I personally really liked his work with Azrael and Moon Knight.

As far as I can tell the crown jewel for Mattina collectors is the Red Hood variant

Mattina is italian, and doesn't look to do too many conventions in North America.

He signs some of his sketches with "Live Rock". I don't know why, but if anyone knows the meaning behind that I'd be interested in hearing it!

Does that mean there are a lot out in the wild yet to be found and graded or does that mean it's super scarce and not that many are out there at all?

This book has been known about long enough that more would have turned up if the right people had them. I would assume they are in peoples collections that don't care to have them graded. And yes, tough book to find.

There is a 9.8 on the bay for a lazy $2499.99 USD.
