Description

Dark Knight III : The Master Race #1 cover by Rafael Alburqueque. This was used for the covers of both the Books-A-Million and the Fried Pie Comics variants.

This was far and away my favorite cover (of the many) that were done for the DK III series. In fact it's one of my favorite Batman covers of the last 20 years. Love the layout, ink wash, and dynamics of the cover. I missed out on this cover once before, and was happy to finally pick it up when I had the chance.

This is my favourite too. If the series art was done by Rafael, I'd have bought the book.

Wonderful pick up! This was my 2nd Favortie of all the variants, the first being a similar scene depicted by Dell'Otto. If this had gone to the auction floor after the piece I had really, really wanted from Heritage I would have at least made you pay a little more for it! As it stood, I couldn't risk bidding on this without knowing just how high my Spider-Man Vs. Wolverine title splash would go for; but I sure wanted to bid on this too! Stellar pick up! Congrats!
