Q&A with Chris Swartz

Which piece in your gallery is your favorite and why?

The Crow 3 cover. I have always been a huge Crow fan and this is my favorite cover. So much so that I have it tattooed on my back.

Please tell us a little about yourself.

I collect Golden Age comics, mostly early Detectives, vintage toys from the 80’s, and my sweet spot for art is from 1984-95.

How long have you been collecting comic art and what prompted you to start?

I have been collecting comics since I can remember. Started to collect comic art around 2006.

How do you display/store your collection at home?

I display my collection in one room that is dedicated to my comics, comic art, and vintage toys. My wife won’t allow me to display anything outside of this one room.

What are your top five most wanted original pages or commissions?

Batman 497 cover or splash; X-Men 205 cover; Amazing Spider-Man 316 cover; Marvel Spotlight 5 cover. Highly doubt I will ever obtain any of these pieces though.
