Allen, hi.  the penciller was Jack Katz, inker was Colletta

Paul, another stunner. Sal and Frank. And the Executioner and the Enchantress! Wow. And on top of all of that, you have the Thing's "it's clobberin time". Heaven on Earth panel page!

Paul, an incredible page by my favorite artist of the Bronze Age. And my favorite inker. Sal and Giacoia in 1972 were unparalleled. Lightning in a bottle. An art collaboration never to be replicated. Bravo!

Wow, what a stunning Cover. Mike Nasser was awesome. I spoke to him via Facbook. He's in Israel for over a decade.

It is a gem! Its great to see it. ps Its so sad to see so many classic and historic comic art pieces sitting on CAF with little acknowledgement by the inmates, who now run the asylum!

Gil, a stunning Sal Buscema Hulk splash and no comments. what a travesty of justice!

Jonathan, hi, a stunning and historic page!

Lars, hi, I just saw this stunning splash! Beautiful Kirby splash. 

Sean, this is a superb splash, by the great Sal Buscema.  I love a good clambake, always! Man, Red Sonja was so.. smokin hot.

A truly superb Hardware Splash.  Denys Cowan's style is so distinctive and incredibly fluid! ps: he is premiering Milestone 2.0 soon! can't wait

Wow, a stunning Deathlok splash! Denys Cowan is a modern day master! Bravo!

Joe, an incredible vivid masterpiece painting, paying homage to Sal Buscema.  The cover to Cap #154 is a classic and historic Bronze Age cover. Bravo!

Daniel, a great early Hagar Sunday. Rare as hens teeth! 

A truly historic and culturally significant cover! 

Robert, this is an incredible culturally and historically significant cover. The cover story is about a black nurse that falls in love with a white doctor. Very risque and quite controversial subject in the 1970s. I think the artist is John Rosenberger who also drew the cover story inside. Inked by Frank Giacoia. 

Dino, wow, a Bronze Age masterpiece drawn and inked by Sal Buscema at the height of his powers. Sal was one of the master draftsmen of the 1970s, who finally escaped from Big John’s shadow only recently.  I always saw Sal’s immense talent as an artist and as an inker as plain as daylight. It took many others decades to finally see what I saw. I started reading comics in 1972 and at that time Sal Buscema drew many of my favorite comics, Captain America, The Defenders, Marvel Team-Up and Marvel Two-In-One.  That period of the early 70s was the true Golden Age for a lot of young guys my age. Congrats on a spectacular purchase> I will come back often to gander at this gem cover.  Bravo.

A great Epting Cap.  Steve Epting is the modern day John Buscema.  Epting's Captain America is the definitive version of the character in the past 35 years.

Larry, a stellar acquisition of a historic and classic Avengers page.  I am so happy for you my friend.  I felt your passion for this page in your description.  The emotional satisfaction from obtaining a grail piece is indescribable, unless you are lucky enough to have experienced it firsthand. You are a great guy and i'm so glad you achieved this great milestone. Bravo.

David, a stunning and historic page. Warlock is one of my favorite characters

DC, a stunning Nick Cardy masterpiece!

Fisch, a stunning cover. Warlock is one of my favorite characters. Bravo for grabbing this one.

Sean, a stunning cover! Colan/Palmer. An art collaboration that is unparalleled.

Sean, bravo and a big congrats on finding this personal grail splash. The rush a collector gets when finding a grail piece is beyond anything most people can describe, but you did it quite well.  I felt the passion and excitement in your description as I have been there myself.  Nice to see there are other real collectors left out there that share the true love of the hobby that you exhibit.  A comic art page’s value becomes infinite, if it resides with its true owner, the one that values it the most as it relates to him, and not the marketplace. 

Mr A, an astounding Sal Buscema Avengers covers. From his first year drawing comics. Congrats and bravo on keeping this beauty for decades. Sal and John defined the Bronze Age of comics from 1968-1976, which was Marvel's true Golden Age!!

Kirk, a superb Ken Kelly masterpiece. Kelly's 1970s oils were all breathtaking, and this one is no exception. Hang it up on the wall and enjoy it. Bravo and congrats!

Al, another stunner. We seem to have similar taste for sure.  Alex Nino is my favorites of the Filipino artists, and he is far beyond all the others. Yes, even the redondo brothers. I am blessed to own a complete Rima Voyagers story and it is a prized possession. Congrats on owning this masterful page by the one and only Alex Nino.

Al, this is classic Buckler from the early 1970s.  His run on Avengers starting with #101, which he took over the title from the likes of Adams and BWS, was among my favorite art and storylines in the early 1970s. This is a great page.  Buckler's run on the Avengers in 1972, was basically why he was and continues to be one of my favorite artists. 

Al, an incredible FF panel page by Big John. But I was stunned when I read your description.  There are very few collectors left today that love the storylines and feel the nostalgia, and I think I may have found another one. lol.  It seems everything today centers around how much did you pay, and how much is it worth.  I felt your passion for the storyline here as I too loved the Johnny and Crystal love affair in the early 1970s, and I was truly heartbroken when Crystal married that old geezer Quciksilver, in the classic FF 150. Congrats on a sterling page.

Daryl, an incredible Batman cover! Michael Netzer is a great artist. 

Nathan, it’s great to know there is at least one collector out there that appreciates the Bucky/Nomad mythos like me. I was shocked and heartbroken to see Jack Monroe die in Cap 7 and in such a worthless fashion. I can only guess that Ed Brubaker wanted to kill off the new Bucky before he reintroduced the 1st Bucky aka Winter Soldier to the timeline. I am still dismayed that he was never brought back. I know that the Brubaker/Epting glorious Cap run was “lightning in a bottle”, and it can’t be recaptured ever again. But It would be a dream to see those two bring him back if they ever worked together again, but I doubt that would ever happen. When I asked Steve Epting if he would ever draw Cap again in a series with Ed, he doubted it because “it will always be compared to their first run” and never live up to expectation. Sadly, it will be some time before we saw a daring writer and artist ever attempt to achieve this feat.

Jon, an astounding complete Sal B Spidey story! And by our Pal Sal.  I believe that a complete story is the pinnacle of comic art collecting. Bravo.  I remember this gem being sold in auction back during the financial crisis.  I wanted to bid on it, but I was hiding in the closet like a frightened turtle. lol  I truly thought it was the end of the world.  Big congrats on owning this.

Steve, a great panel page of the first panel appearance of the Gremlin! I remember this great Trimpe storyline from the 1st year I started reading comics.

Chris, ..... you are killing me. Breathtaking. Jaw-dropping. An astounding Jim Aparo Batman masterpiece. This cover is the absolute zenith of his immense powers as an artist. Man, I am so stunned. I am bowing down to you as I type this. Congrats my friend and a huge bravo. 

Oh man, this is another Cardy masterpiece. Bravo

Cardy was a master draftsman! This is a stunning cover! Car day is one of my favorite artists, he can do no wrong!

Shultz is a master draftsman! A superb example of his genius!

Chris, what can I say - your diligence and determination is astounding. "Thank god you are on our side" lol . First, you obtained the complete story to this Aparo Bronze Age gem. I complement you for getting that story back to the mainland, where it belongs.  That was not an easy chore or a cheap one, i'm sure.  And then knowing, as we discussed in detail, that I, like you, believe that complete stories and covers belong together, you approached me like a gentleman and made a case for it.  I literally had no chance. lol  Seriously, the cover belongs in your house, and I'm glad you are the custodian for both.  A remarkable achievement, nuff said.

Shaun a very nice commission. The Leader was one of my favorite Hulk villains. Drawn by the definitive Hulk artist. Herb Trimpe was one of the finest people you would ever meet in the hobby. I was blessed to have met and to speak to him on several occasions. I also saw him at the East Coast Comic con two days before he passed away. It was a tragic loss. 

Chris, a stellar acquisition. Jim Aparo is at his zenith here. Congrats on obtaining this incredible story which I remember reading off the newstand. And a relief that it will stay intact in your hands for the rest of time!

Marc, a stellar Ken Kelly masterpiece! Having your uncle Frank Frazetta paint some of it can't hurt either. Wow. Big bravo on owning this one!

Larry, a masterpiece featuring the big three!

Larry, a superb Batman/Robin page! Bravo

Scott, a culturally significant and historic Dan DeCarlo Archie cover during his prime period. Bravo and congrats. 

Coming from the man who owns the iconic AA #11 Cover, thanks Vince.

Andrew, wow, a Sal Buscema masterpice.  A glorious DPS. A big bravo to you on a stellar acquisition. If you ever want to sell this, please give me a holler. (Im 58. so don't wait too long) lol

J, this is another gem in your world class collection. Nino is my favorite of the Filipino artists. He is unparalleled among his peers as an artist and in a class by himself.

J, a stunning Colan masterpiece. Colan was one of the greatest artists and here he was at the height of his powers! Big congrats. 

Mark, hi. It was such a pleasure to finally meet you in SDCC last year. And thank you for selling me this great Sal page there!

Thank you buddy. But now I need my Epting avengers covers back. WTF was I thinking! Lol

Keif, a stellar Batman cover addition to an already world class art collection!
