Fabulous New Mutants cover by Bil Sienkiewicz! I love his linework here from the ear when he was pushing the boundaries of what comic art could look like. It may seem tame today, but at the time a lot of us were startled by Sienkiewicz's bold new style. It was wild, it was different, it was strange. But gradually, we fell in love with Bill's brilliance and his incredible talent. Fantastic pick-up, congrats!
Many congrats, Dino! This is a classic Sienkiewicz piece!
A new vintage piece of art posted to CAF. It must be a Dino Saturday! What a beautiful piece of art. Just outstanding ink job and renders. Huge Congrats!!
Great-looking cover Dino, Sienkiewicz had really come into his own by this time!
A great cover and like you said the inscription is golden. My friend Richard took me to Jellys long ago and I was impressed with the store and owner. Congrats!
Baller.
Excellent to see his expert line work on one of the only non painted covers of his run. Congrats!
Beautiful cover and exquisite line work by Bill. Congrats Dino
Great cover!
Bad @$$! I knew one of the CAF big guns would land this when I saw it for sale. Congrats Dino!
GREAT cover Dino!
Sienkiewicz emerging from the influences of Neal Adams ...and becoming......
.......congratulations!!!!!
Now this is special. Just love that linework. Wow! Congrats Dino!
With so many covers from this run being of the painted variety, it's great to see one in traditional pen and ink and this was always a magnificent one, the skill and execution of which stands head and shoulders above anything else around it being done at that time. Fabuloso!
One of Bill's all time best covers! Congrats Dino!
Jelly's was the best!
SUPER!
Sienkiewicz at his finest...beautiful cover by (in my very humble opinion) one of the all-time greats!
An epic and really memorable cover, great to see on here and in good hands. Loving the dedication note, neat extra bit of history. Huge congrats on this monumental, truly unique cover from an amazing era.
Consider me Dazzled, Dino!
I have a weak spot for Sienkiewicz's New Mutants run -- all of the covers are fantastic. Great pickup, Dino!
Love this. Everything from Bill during these years were magic. Truly ahead of his time artistically. And when I lived in Hawaii, I shopped at Jelly's for my comics!
That's gorgeous Dino! Nice pickup!!
Fabulous line art cover by Sienkiewicz that they made to look just line his painted covers in the fabled run! He manages to startle and boggle the mind to change the way we thought of comics.
Congratulations on adding another killer cover to the Dino Museum!
Beautiful addition, Dino! A Sienkiewicz NM cover would be a centerpiece of most collections.
Magnificent. Bill is a legend and these issues were a highlight. Congratulations.
Super cool!
Amazing!
Everything everyone has said above! Bill makes it look so effortless.
Beautiful Sienkiewicz cover! Congrats on picking this up.
Sienkiewicz work on New Mutants is superb! This super expressive and dynamic cover is a perfect example of it! Huge congrats!
Oh, man, straight classic Sin-kev-itch! Hard to top as a New Mutants OR Bill example! Great energy, depth, composition, and of course the uber unique stylization is there. Big congrats, Dino!
A stunning Sienkiewicz! Such amazing line work. You really get pulled into the image too. Like, I instinctively lower my eyelids when I look at those bursts and flashes of light, imagining what it would be like to be on the receiving end of all that. Congrats, Dino!
I remember 11 year old Chris seeing this on the spinner rack and thinking "who likes this art?"
Cut to many years later and a much more refined sensibility... THIS IS AWESOME!
If you were to get a Sienkiewicz, this would be the one. Such a perfect example of his disturbing linework. Congrats, Dino! Another masterful addition to the Mauricio Master Collection.
Always a cool cover, but I'd say it looks even better in BW. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic cover! Wow, Dino!
a favorite of mine! congrats Dino!
A game changing run by Sienkiewicz. These issues/covers were just amazing!!!! Congrats Dino!!!! 8 )
