Great piece, I don't think many pages from the run can equal, or come close, to this one.

You always wonder if someone actually owns a piece like this... very nice!

Certainly, if there is understatement in the world, it is presented here. "First appearance of the Lord of Dreams" is presented with the same fanfare as first appearance of Timmy the Wonder Turtle. First appearance of a genre changing character and the splash from the first issue of a ground breaking run are probably more accurate descriptions. Like visiting the funhouse in your Killing Joke page, every time I check out this gallery, I find more and more wonder and amazement. Congratulations on owning another historic piece!

If I keep looking at your gallery, I may become numb, and won't be able to drive home. Killer, killer, page.

Can't believe that I have never commented on this, since I keep coming back to look at it. Extraordinary piece, and can only imagine what it looks like in person.

On the plus side my wife says it will narrow the pool of suspects.

Congrats!!! Also, I think once the kickbacks start she'll stop pursuing the investigation.
