Green Lantern #10, page 10

I CANNOT believe I won this!!!

I backed Liam's Kickstarter for "Encore - Gold" to get a remark sketch, as I'm a sucker for Kickstarters with affordable original art.

But secretly, I was also hopeful that I'd win this page.

Now, normally I don't really expect to win anything. In most contests, the odds are just against you. This, however, wasn't a normal contest. Instead Liam made it more of a competition. The book would include a secret code and the first to crack it would win the page. I'm no expert, but I'm still pretty good at cracking codes. So I figured I might have a shot.

Except... I'm all the way in Denmark. There was really no way I would get the book early enough that I'd be the first to crack it. But then I noticed that Liam would also be sending out PDFs of the book, so I might have a shot at it!

It took a while until Liam sent out the PDFs (there's been a pandemic slowing down everything, in case you hadn't noticed ;) ), but when he did I rushed to check if anyone had cracked the code yet. No one had!
So I started going through the pages, trying to find the code. It didn't take long until I spotted the first clue, which quickly turned out to be the first part of the code. Hurrying, I put the code together, sent it to Liam and then frantically refreshed my e-mail the rest of the day!

When the e-mail ticked in, that I'd won, I laughed out loud out of pure happiness. I couldn't believe my luck! And to be honest, I still really can't. I'm super happy with this.

Now onto the actual page!

First of all, it's HUGE! 18" x 24"!
When I first opened up the tube it came in, I actually wasn't stunned by how big it is. Then I figured out it's because I'm used to getting posters in tubes and not original art. When I compared it to other pages I own, it's almost twice as big! HUGE!

It is also gorgeous. With the stunning alien vista in the background/first panel, full of all that Sharp detail we're expecting. Then there's the gorgeous lady in panel 3, Strong Woman, a somewhat prominent character in Morrison and Sharp's run. And finally, some great shots of Hal in panel 2 and 3, with some lovely acting by Sharp too.

It's not the most flashy page, but everything that is there looks great.

I am VERY happy to own this and every time I look at it, I can't believe I was fortunate enough to win it!

Thanks Liam!
