If not, add that one to your list of signed by Frank but not by Frank And I think we need to be aware that GCD data may not always be 100% either... https://www.comics.org/issue/34974/ A decade ago, I remember the Donnellys selling this cover at SDCC claiming it was Frank Miller despite the widespread doubts... I came --this-- close but happened to connect with Joe Rubinstein who said "abosolutely NOT Frank Miller!" A great cover image tho!

Bronty Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 remaining pieces (while there are nice ones as always) seem a little lackluster so far. I'm sure that will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronty Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) I like it even though I'm neither a SW fan nor a Hildebrandt fan. What do you have against orange? It's a featured piece so I would guess its 25k or more in ha's eyes. Ultimately the selection so far isn't typical heritage. I'm sure it will get a lot better. There is a cool Beast page from Xmen 2, but it's hard to get thrilled about a page with only the Beast Edited September 1, 2017 by Bronty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SWG sets (and this piece in particular) along with the TZ novels with Thrawn are probably some of the biggest reasons why Star Wars survived the early 90s when it was just us diehard fans holding it up. People forget how truly dead and niche SW was before the prequels came about. Honestly if you were ever going to find an "important" piece of star wars illustration art to come up for sale, this painting would be it. Short of a Zahn Thrawn Trilogy cover, this would be tops.

I remember one very high profile cover that a dealer stuck under Frank Miller's nose and had him sign that Frank didn't have anything to do with. In Jack's case, his name is there, how or why or when is up for discussion. Absolutely! Our old friend Steve (lol) at Coollines had a Romita junior ASM cover for sale that they had senior add his signature to at a convention. The cover then became a Romita Senior/Junior piece of artwork (even though senior's hand was not actually present) . . . with a highly-inflated asking price to cash-in on the deception.

Twanj Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I won my first two pages at the Heritage weekly auction. I don’t see an invoice or place to pay. Do they email one or does it show up on their site later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My general feel of HA was that there's usually a bidding frenzy for stuff I want. I don't follow the weekly auctions as much, but there were 2 Alan Davis pages I really liked & just had to put 1 bid in for the live auction. No fight or fuss. The only downside is 6% state sales tax. I just saw the email, it came in about an hour ago. I just paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocket1312 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Is anyone else having trouble with the Heritage website as it relates to wantlist and tracking notifications? It just occurred to me that I haven't been receiving any e-mails from them lately despite a recent flurry of items popping up from my wantlist. I'm also tracking items on a weekly basis and haven't been getting e-mails on those either. I thought that maybe I had inadvertently altered my notification settings, but I checked my wantlist on the website and everything is coming up with "no current matches," which definitely is not the case.

You should email their support and let them know about it, maybe they can tell you what you're doing wrong, or you can help them discover a problem with the site.

Every week I see stuff in the weekly auctions that I think should be in the higher profile auctions. It's rare that I see something in the quarterlies and think "what the heck is this doing there?"

You'd think that the descriptions would be a little more explicit as to what exactly these things are and what their purpose is. For the TLDR crowd, these are imaginary covers from the Funky Winkerbean universe drawn by famous artists that are being sold to support Tom Batiuk's (Funky Winkerbean creator) cancer charity.
