Description

Every so often, I have this daydream, that I will sell most, if not all, of my art and use the proceeds to buy just one piece: An Alex Raymond Flash Gordon Sunday.

First time I ever saw that art as a kid, I recognized that I was looking at something extraordinary.

Nearly 50 years later, I still feel that way.

In the meantime, I have this great Raymond Rip Kirby to enjoy. Frankly, they are all pretty great, but this one especially spoke to me because of the terrific use of light and shadows. (And smaller word balloons than typical means more art to enjoy.)

Publishing the complete Raymond Rip Kirby � and Flash Gordon, with the Raymond Jungle Jim toppers � at IDW was a joy. An absolute joy.

And I�m still thinking about saving my pennies�
