Description

As soon as I saw Sean tweet WIP shots of this cover I emailed his art agent, Jason. Not too long after I was able to make payment and secure my first OA purchase ever!

Imagine my surprise when I went to Jason's office (turns out I work nearby) to pick up the art and he tells me..."Are you sure you want to buy this"? I said "Of course!" and he informed me that Sean had emailed him that Scott Williams was interested in buying the Tokyo Ghost cover.

Subsequently found a fun Twitter exchange between Sean and Scott where they talk about "dirty Jim Lee money".

It's always a thrill to buy art you love, but this one is extra special because, being my first OA purchase, it got the Scott Williams seal of approval too - haha!

My first serious purchase...I couldn't be happier, got very lucky. Not sure if true but was told that famed inker Scott Williams expressed to SGM interest in owning it.

All I can say is that if you stay in that ballpark for the rest of your collecting career you are going to have an unbelievable stash! I will look forward to seeing what is next.
