CAF Update: Byrne X-men 128 addition & two Romita Droids Covers 1 1

[dspair]

Hi all...I finally got around to posting a pic of my X-men 128 addition from last February's Heritage auction.

X-men #128 page 3

For those unaware, my 'Comic Art Life Goal' is to put together this book.  This is my 6th page after about 10 years of looking.  So I should be done in about another 20 years.

As always, if anyone has any leads on any pages from 128...please let me know!  

I also had some of my collection out for a recent Star Wars party which prompted me pulling the two Romita Droids animated covers out into the light of day.

Thanks for looking!

I saw your X-men page on CAF! Best of luck getting the rest of the pages!

Very cool page! Always nice to read about other collectors making progress on their long-term collection goals. Hope you find some more pages from that issue. I'll definitely keep an eye out for you!

Well it’s been about 3 years from the last X-men 128 page addition to my collection.  At this rate I’ll be finished with the book in about 30 years.    Any leads on any pages would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Please check out my CAF gallery and leave a comment.  Thanks!

Congrats on adding the new page and congrats on having the best page in the book (in my opinion), the one with Colossus vs Proteus. WOW that page is a showstopper!

Another killer page! putting together a Byrne/Austin X-Men book is quite the 'Life Goal,' and I wish you luck! BTW, those Romita Droid covers are fantastic!

Have you ever talked with Terry about how many/which pages he has?

No I haven’t ever had the opportunity.  I’ve heard he doesn’t like getting bothered about that kind of stuff.  

I know I’ve heard it before but I don’t remember the exact breakdown of what the Marvel penciller vs inker vs writer would get.    I thought it was something like 2/3 penciller, 1/3 inker and writer gets a couple pages here and there.  So I figured Terry Austin has six pages maybe?
