Received this one earlier in the week (approx. 13" x 20"). For a long time I'd been highly-dismissive of re-creations (which I'd always considered a pointless exercise), then I came upon this guy's work. I think it's highly unlikely that Kirby's FF # 6 cover art still exists (as I also believe is the case with a lot of early silver age Marvel covers . . . I don't subscribe to the theory of a hidden stash waiting to re-surface). No real substitute for the real thing, of course (and I'm not kidding myself on that score), but still impressive in its own right:

 

Three more re-dos in my CAF Covers Gallery # 4, if anyone's interested in seeing what else I've opted for.

Saw this page at Comic Art Con last month and a dealer got it right in front of me (along with 5 other batgirl pages). He sold them to another dealer, and I saw them again at a show last week. I loved it in person, so went for it, even though it cost about 25% more than the original price.

I have not seen this before, it looks awesome - is it a published cover, commission or something else?

 

Its a commission piece, it really is beautiful, thanks for the kind words. :cloud9:
