Mike Burkey by Mike Burkey

By the power vested in me by myself, I hereby declare you the poet laureate of CAF.  Now we just need a 1980s computer animated version of Burkey to accompany the lyrics.

The delicacy of the line work, the meticulous lettering and bold use of negative space all speak to a genius we never knew was lurking beneath the surface. Congrats on this grail!

Thank you for the very detailed instructions on what Dueling Dealers is all about and how to participate in the fun! I look forward to seeing what grades you get when you get these cards back from PSA. When that happens, you will have set yourself and your family up financially for several generations!

I want my Dueling D 

George H. start rehearsing now for all future band performances at CAF functions and Bill backyard FL bbq events.

Of all the Mike Burkeys in the world, you're the Mike Burkiest.

😹😹😹

Epic and cosmic duels!! Cool!!!

why mike hasn't won a Oscar for his various portrayals is a crime. Tom Hanks couldn't hold a candle to mikess "hulk smashed." sitting at a bar.

That's the way ya do it Marcus!

Great post!  What a way to start my Saturday morning.  Haven't seen that Dire Straights video in way too many years.  And Burkey by Burkey is one cool pickup.

Signed by Burkey with a signature as confident and iconic as a Stan Lee signature in the middle of a piece of art! This one's got everything you could want! Huge congrats!

Make Mine Marcus, the heralded muse of our hobby!

So many great memories and memes, thanks Marcus!

You da man, Marcus!  Congrats on the set!  It shall only grow in value!!

Burkey looks to be in dire straits in that sketch card!

Congrats to everyone's favorite CAF member!  You make CAF a fun place to be my brother!

Them thighs gaps numb, indeed!  Love the line re moving MM Cosmic Odysseys, and hope you continue to find the strength to spool out lyrics on CAF!  

This is priceless! :))

This set of cards is DEFINITELY a claimy doozy!  And what a fantastic poetic description you wrote, bringing back all those memories of Dueling Dealers that we have experienced so far.  The best part is that there are so many more to come!!

It's a Burkeypalooza! Thigh Gaps! This post almost has it all...Just needs more cowbell. Heh, great post, and killer lyrics, Marcus. As always, I'm wildly impressed. Congrats!

You've reached the pinnacle of art collecting with this piece, Marcus!  No where to go from here but down! ;)

top notch good buddy. you have a true one of a kind here.

Keats, Yeats, and Larkin move over!  Well they're all dead, so maybe turn over.  Marcus is in the house!  Well done, sir!

AYKM!

This is fantastic, but the write up for "Money for Nothing" is GOLD! 

Did NOT know that Mike could also draw.  And deal.  THE killer combo.  Congrats, Mr Wai!

He can't. Stick to the day job, Mike.
