Oh, I LOVE panel pages (they're most of the pieces in my collection) and this is a very unique and eye-catching one!

Starlin's mindset!

This is absolutely, mind-blowingly existential.

Such masterly use of negative space . Can't stop marveling at the disappeared detail !

Glad you are enjoying it Marcus!  Definitely GREAT in your collection and a fantastic edition!  And what happens in SDCC should stay in SDCC! ;-)

Many congratulations Marcus! This page demonstrates that an original artwork can have great significance without being cluttered. It was also very nice of you to prepare a gift for Nick.

Simple but effective and historical piece, a little says a lot I suppose here.

Almost nothing never looked better ! A true highlight of a panel page by the master of "Lost in space" !!!

Panel 1 may have all the razzle dazzle but there is SO much to love about the rest of the page. 

Panel 2 - Perfection, thy name is writ clear on the stars. The calming eveness of the ink application holds the mind securely, bracing us for the shocking revelations to come. 

Panel 3 - The palate cleansed, we can start to read more deeply into the mysteries that are somehow contained within a mere four right angles. The mind wants to expand outwards, but is reined in by the expertly rendered lines. 

Panel 4 - Much like Van Gogh's The Starry Night, the subtleties if this space can only be unlocked by returning to Panel 1, staring at it intensely for 20 minutes, and then quickly revisiting Panel 4. The negative image that magically forms quickly draws tears from our parched eyes - tears that weep for our lost souls. 

Panel 5 - Honestly, this could have been left out, but the artist's whimsy cannot be denied.

The horizontal page layout is fabulous. Incredibly symmetrical! But the detailed rendering in panels 3 and 4 are truly out of this world!

Boy, talk about minimalism! Sometimes, the less you say, the more meaningful it gets!

I appreciate Starlin leaving four panels blank so that the fans can become part of the story by drawing their own scenes.  The kids must love it.

What a page - I can't believe Marvel editorial let what is happening with Invisible girl in panel 3 get to production. GASP!

It's literally ALL of us on Panel 1. and then NONE of us on Panel 2...and then a psycological analysis of the reader on panels 3, 4, and 5. Resisting was futile

This is almost conceptual art, pure philosophy about absence by one of the Masters. Congrats :-)
