Even for the best in the business, sometimes all the elements come together in a special way.  This is one of those times.  An Everett Grail for sure.  Venus is so beautiful.

"Your atoms would have been scattered all over the solar system."

I understand eating Pop Rocks and drinking Coke could have the same effect.  What we learn here is rocks can be dangerous!

Classic Swanderson page!

What a freakin' great page.

Yes, and Hallmark movie-inspired comic books!

THAT, is a really cool piece of art.  I have not seen it before, but it is now my favorite Mike Zeck picture.

I know I've looked at this before.  I can't believe I never commented on it.  Then again, what is there to say about one of the greatest pieces of Silver-Age Marvel art.  JJ in the bottom right is a timeless image.

I am a HUGE fan of zip-a-tone, and I love what Al did with Swan's pencils.  This is a really cool page.

Beyond awesome

That is hilarious and sexy at the same time.  : - )

Budd knows his audience.

Say what you will about 'The Marvel Way,' but this page is a perfect example of what made it great!

Yes, Sunfire's headgear in the first panel is stellar.  As are Palmer's inks.  What a page.

Screw canonical.  I collect scripts for movies and TV shows, and the most enjoyable thing of all is getting early drafts.  That way, you can see the creative process that led to the final product.  That is art.  It is a process, and seeing it happen (not just an artist doing a piece beginning to end, but the first ideas to the final pice) is so exciting.

And that is what this piece is...exciting!

What a cool page.  Cap and Falcon giving autographs.  How cool is that.  You're very lucky to have this one!

If you are going to have problems in your life, Archie's problem would be good problems to have.

Great cover.

The perfect subject matter for Mike Mignola.  Awesome cover.

It's kind of like the antithesis of Love For Sale.  Another gem from your non-hero collection!

I've never heard of this book.  Really cool page.  I take it the bottom panel is the microwave exploding!

The page is great, but you gotta love the title of the next issue!

That is a wicked-cool page.

I've never heard it referred to as chain mail armor.  Way cool!

Great Heck page.  The fifth and last panels are fantastic.

What a tremendous Nasser page.  That cat is amazing!

Well, this has kickstarted me.  Iago has 'the gift.'

Buscema is the all-time Conan penciller for me, and Chan is his soulmate!

Adam West couldn't have said it any better!

Fabulous page showcasing the meshing of the old team with the new as they learn about each other.  That, and two master artists at work.

What an ad.  So much detail in this DPS, Perez created the comic industry sequel to the movie Bucket of Blood - Bucket of Ink!

If you weren't interested in reading The New teen Titans after seeing this, you weren't interested in anything!

I learned to love Dan's art during the Death of Superman run, then followed him over to Solar.  This is a great page.

You chose...wisely, and found the true grail.

Caps' face in panel 2 is priceless.  Outside of sites like this, Bob Brown is not remembered.  It's great places like this exist to keep his talent alive!

Peak Mazzucchelli.  Graphic perfection.

Looks like a woodcut.  It's beautiful.

I was shocked several years after my mom passed away to find out my dad read Mary Worth and Judge Parker. "Every day," he said, as though I would expect it.

It takes a special talent to do newspaper strips.  I tried, and found myself to be quite jealous of those who do it.

I'm torn on this one.  Is it better in black and white or in color?

Answer: Yes.

" An indulgence (and memory of youth - if you believe that!!) "

You were a stripper?

Great painting!

That Thanos!  What a card.  This is a flat out Marvel with a BOLD CAPITAL M splash page!!

It's funny, because I was such a major fan of EC Comics, yet, when it came to Marvel and DC, it was all superhero or nothing with me.  I totally sluffed off all these not tight-wearing books and what I considered blah, boring art, etc.  Look at these covers!  Look at all the Ghosts, Unexpected, Witching Hours, etc pages on CAF.  I'm so glad I grew up and can appreciate how amazing all the work was on these books.

This cover, and all your horror pieces, are simply phenomenal.

Jack was one of a kind.  There have been many great writers and many great artists, but Jack was the physical embodiment of the medium.

BTOOOM!

That half-splash Spidey is incredible!

This cover is, of course, fantastic, yet all I can think of every time I look at it is this quote from the Batman 1966 movie:

• Miss Kitka: How purrfectly wonderful of you! Mmm. I close my eyes and l dream of all those savage Cossacks racing over the steppes on their brutal mission.
• Bruce Wayne: How strange. I close my eyes, and l dream of something quite astonishingly different.

Okay, I'll start the fraudulent comments section as though this were an unused cover.

I like it even better than the one they used!

P.S. - Your Planet comics collection is amazing!

Look at Wolverine in that first panel.  They should have sold baby Wolverine plushes!

Now I get it!  Oh yes, The poster book is going for $324 on Amazon!  This is a really cool piece to own.

Congrats!

This is really cool.  The paste-up for the 1975 book?

Pure Decarlo gold!

Channeling Walt Simonson big time!  Very powerful page.

You ripped the words from my mouth.  This is FLAT OUT Alan Davis greatness!

Two of my all-time favorites: Twilight Zone and Al Williamson.  This is an awesome page.

See, if Reagan hadn't gifted the wealthy with his giant tax cuts, Breathed never would have written this strip, and it would never have been burned into your brain, and you wouldn't have asked if Breathed still had it, and then he wouldn't have gifted it to you.  Therefore...you DID benefit from Reagan's tax cuts.  I guess, even though Reagan committed treason by making a deal with Iran to keep the hostages to help him get elected, he really was the friend of the little guy.

Bummer of a birthmark, Hal.  Larson was the man.  You're lucky to own one of his pieces!

Certain people are just meant to do certain things.  Ramona Fradon was meant to draw the Super Friends.
