Nothing beats a Frazetta Famous Funnies Buck Rogers cover! I often wonder what masterpieces Frank would have created if he didn't ghost for Al Capp for nine years. Thanks for posting a larger image.

This piece is just PHENOMENAL!!! This is one of those pieces that you consider yourself lucky to just behold in person let alone actually own it. Congratulations and thank you for sharing this with us.

How does someone other than a museum own this? This is not art, it's American pop culture history.

I'm just back for one of my usual visits to this piece. It's so nice to be able to come and visit this anytime. Thanks again.

After years of collecting, this might be the finest pen and ink piece I have ever seen.

Unbelievable !!! Master Collection, if there were ranks you'd be on top of the list...!!!

This is one of my favourite pieces of comic art I have seen! A masterpiece! Just amazing posture, colour, contrast and use of inking, brilliant!!!! CONGRATS!

I cant imagine getting to admire this in person on a daily basis. Its probably a good thing Im not able to. If I were to bask in the glow of this brush-work for long Id probably quit inking.

Splendid. I also had he pleasure of visiting the museum, in its' heyday. Did the blue wash affect the look of the printed cover or did Frazetta add it just to enhance the original? Norm

Thanks for your comment. Several of the famous funnies covers were done in blue wash--it did not effect the printing process.

One of the best comic book covers of the "golden age" even if a little later and one of the best comic covers of any age. Incredible. Bravo!

One of the most wonderful pieces of comic art I have ever seen. Each time I view it, I can't believe the linework and the composition.

I scrolled down through, because I must have commented on this before, and didn't want to make another comment. Turns out, I'd never freakin' commented either. That's insane!

This page is the most powerful comic book cover ever, that looks like a diaphanous dream. Wisps of fine lines coalesce into such a beautiful image, it almost hurts to look at it. You are so lucky to be the caretaker of this piece of comic history.
