EDLS is now collecting Jester art... So he is not as biased.  Nice pick up, by the way!

Arthur Adams knocks it out of the park with this powerhouse shot of The Thing! The detail in the rocky texture and the sheer energy in Ben’s pose make this a showstopper.

Art Adams (CHECK)

Thing Cover (CHECK CHECK)

Reference to Dr Seuss' Thing 2 (CHECK CHECK CHECK)

The amount of checks payable to Grant for large sums of cash? 4, but totally worth it.

Holy smokes! What a cool variant cover for Fantastic Four #1 by Arthur Adams! IMHO, Art has always had the ability to draw any character and capture the essence of that character. Take the Thing--The one thing about the Thing is...he always gets in everybody's face. Which is just what this cover does! Love this up-close and personal portrait of Benjamin Grimm. Fabulous pick-up, congrats!

This is such an amazing cover.  I love the super strong image of Thing close up and personal. The details are so well done as you would expect from Art Adams but this one is definitly something special. Congrats Chris!

Congratulations, Chris! As the one who originally picked this up from Art, I couldn't be happier that it found it's way to you via Grant. It was meant to be...!
