Gaps in your OA collection that you’d like to address 1 1

[exitmusicblue]

Just realized I don’t have a single piece of Silver Age art... one of my themes is coverage of every era, so tut tut.

Also want at some point at least one Bill Everett, Neal Adams, Adam Hughes, JSC... (Marvel or Archie)

What are the gaps in your collection that you’d like to address?

[Peter L]

I would like a Brian Bolland and a Jae Lee.  I sort of feel the peer pressure to someday get a Jim Lee but I don't naturally gravitate towards his art.  I just don't want to regret not getting one of his and look back that I should have gotten some when he was "cheap."

[Brian Peck]

Many of the gaps in my collection is around golden and silver age art and artists.

For Silver Age would love to get a Neal Adams - Batman, Deadman, Spectre page, Gil Kane Green Lantern (saying the oath), Joe Kubert Star Spangled War Stories featuring Enemy Ace or Curt Swan Superman,  for Golden Age Joe Shuster - Superman, HG Peter Wonder Woman full page or splash, Murphy Anderson Spectre, Will Eisner Spirit page.

Also want some nice EC art by Johnny Craig, Al Feldstein, Jack Davis, Graham Ingels. Or Harvey Kurtzman Little Annie Fanny.

I'm mostly out of collecting comic-book OA with just three exceptions:

Looking for some more Marshall Rogers 'Demon With a Glass Hand' pages:

Some example pages I currently own from those three strips . . .

Today, I’d like to find the Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe illustration of Cloak — I have Dagger, and she looks odd on her own.

Anyone out there got him?

Any one of those would be great to have but I strongly encourage you to rethink the twice up. Once you have one, you will quickly realize one is not enough.

Funny you say that. I have thought a lot about it and have decided that one will be enough. Please don't test my resolve, I don't know how strong it is.

Kaluta (I've had the other Studio guys represented in my collection for 30 years), Ploog, Winsor McCay, Carl Barks, Rube Goldberg, vintage Golden, Dave Stevens, Mark Shultz...

Happy to have found at least one example by many of my bucket list artists, but there are a few gaps  (items I have zero examples from and would love at least one)

Frank Miller Daredevil page

Early Cerebus page

Rick Leonardi Spiderman 2099 page or Cover

Jim Lee Wildcats splash of Cover

Ben Edlund The Tick page or cover.

There is always more stuff that is of interest, but the above would be awesome to have at one point.
