Really great piece which brings up fond memories of the movie/movies and growing up in NJ!

Wow what a strong Conan image! Zaffino did some excellent work here. Even the subtle coloring work on the final cover looks great (didn't ruin it!). Awesome cover pickup, congrats Rick!

Excellent cover!!!! Huge congrats on this Miki. I'm the furthest thing from a Legion guy, but from your description alone it's obvious how key/important this run in the title was, and how much this addition means to you. 

The calm before the (final) storm! the part of the rpg where you get your final party ready and make one last save game file incase you need it later should you fall to the boss on the first try. 

Very nice set of 3 sequential pages from the Dan Dare story. The top panel here is so cool. congrats!

Really cool looking art pages especially with that Moebius-like linework you pointed out. Congrats on adding 3 sequential pages! I had no prior knowledge of this series at all, so I appreciate learning something (as usual) when I stop by the Mark V gallery :)

another great page! to me that bottom panel (in isolation or in context) may be the strongest image I can recall in a war comic I've seen in quite some time. excellent (and horrifying). 

This is an awesome splash! Congrats on "not going after it" yet still somehow ending up owning (winning?) it. You gotta teach me this jedi mind trick!!! ;-p

Doesn't get much better for BSG tfans o have the original cast/series pictured opposite the more modern cast/series. Very cool cover, congrats!

Love this cover! as a huge fan of USM myself (a series I have re-read 3 times now since it has came out) I always enjoy seeing any originals from this whether it be inked interior pages or the pure penciled covers. This is a fantastic one to have both Spidey and Black Cat full figured with great poses. congrats!

Very nice Grell pencils and good advice about reading descriptions in auctions. I think you landed a good one regardless of learning certain aspects about it after the fact. congrats!

As much as he may be procrastinating sometimes changing things up (location, activity, what have you...) does clear the mind to be able to focus. If I had Tippie tagging along with me everywhere that would def be tough though! Love this set of 6 strips, fun budget art and reflective of the times of 80+ years ago. congrats!

Funny I got the same notes about my own hair just this week but I'm standing tall anyway trying to grow it out. Never trust an amateur hair cutter!

I have to knock this one slightly for not having Tippie in every panel but well played nonetheless!

A nickel for 5 all day suckers!? I was born in the wrong era. 

Sammy Sutton has a cookie itch that no single grandma can scratch! Tippie in every panel and I hope that never changes :)

Tippie has already stolen my heart and I've only read one strip so far!

Such a cool addition to your collection! I've got fond memories of this from back in the MTV days as well. Not sure I even fully comprehended what I was watching back then but it certainly drew you in. Awesome cel and set of accompanying illustrations, congrats on the HA win and additions!

Cool KaJO piece and for a good cause, nicely done.

a nice watercolor painting with a warm color tone pallette. the golden age versions of these DC characters are awesome! 

A night at the Time Cinema to watch pre-outlawed boxing matches followed by grabbing a few Galacto Burgers sounds like a fun evening to me! Excellent Mortimer and Abel artwork, great page!

A viscious cycle of drowning prevented by Nathan, but the fear from past trauma are only enhanced by this near death experience for Carolyn. A tender moment shared between vulnerable characters. 

Way to bid and go to sleep and still win it, love it when that happens! awesome page. 

Excellent JRJR MTU cover! Honestly the toning only adds character to a cover piece from this era or older, it looks great as is. 

wow, stunning Frazetta illustration with that beyond top notch inking - and gorgeous presentation with the framing/matting as well. congrats!

Galactus Awaits! Super fun page.

Beauty! digging the lighter blue and white highlights in this sultry + sly (slytry? sulsly? ha) version of Dream Girl that stays true to older source material. Nice one! Curious how you organize/store/display your sketch card collection with how many you have. Sleeves and Toploaders, or sleeves and binders? Or something else? I need a new solution of my own, so curious to hear how other collectors prefer to store/enjoy theirs. 

Pretty cool painted study of the character as a precursor to both full commissions! To get a totally different type of art piece/style for a bonus gift along with the commissions themselves is top notch customer service as well. Good to see. 

"80s Action Hero Duke" sounds like a B or even C movie level franchise name, or perhaps a brand new retro inspired action figure line! Either way, Tom Reilly brings the great action and storytelling from panel to panel here, capped off by that excellent chopper reflection and subsequent explosion shot. Very cool!

congrats on the early Zeck MOKF art, love the "dragon volcano" sequence definately fun content!

I'm surprised CAF's servers haven't gone down yet with the 2 first appearance bombs you dropped on it yesterday, ha. ;) congrats!

Frank Castle, fresh out of the oven at Marvel. 'Nuff said!  important piece of comic book history without a doubt. congrats!

WOW Bill, The Defenders #2 cover!!!?? Most excellent, and huge congrats! this cover image is burned into my brain from seeing so many copies of the book over the years at shows and elsewhere. Interesting about how they edited it (and thanks for sharing the seperate overlay version to compare) for publication. Great addition. Really love this!!

Nice title page! I love the lettering, especially on The Challengers of the Unknown logo in the top panel.

Really enjoyed the innovative panel/page design and imagery throughout the 8 pages. The only word bubbles in the entire story being "Diana" and "Mom" really brought a lot more importance to those scenes/lines with emotional weight. Over it's a nice self contained Wonder Woman story from a modern book with a unique art style. A cool way of expanding collecting horizons!

congrats on adding the story! Right away the artwork draws you in and as you mentioned is fairly self explanatory as to what's going on and easy to follow. 

Great page design and composition backed up by excellent penciling. nice one!

Very cute and colorful indeed to the strength of Rian's unique artistic approach and style! The chibi Storm vs Cyclops battle just takes this piece up a notch as far as fun factor. 

Sleep deprivation is one of the worst forms of torture, but I suppose great war strategy to wear down your enemies. I love that panel of "Oscar" the submarine surfacing and rearing it's head above the sea surface to fire shells.  

Awesome Chaykin art with excellent inking by DeZuniga!

The lines are blurred making the question of who the bigger monster is in this situation hit the core of the Frankenstein mythos. Nice Frankie page!

I KNEW a rescue and CPR scenario was next, just didn't know if you owned those pages or not. Glad you do so I could see it play out. :) Nice work Nathan!

Nice Staton art!

Big Floating Head Guardian is embodying a little of the spirit of us in the hobby who get priced out of pieces we desire at auction by other bidders. Get off my OA planet and leave all the good deals to me! 

Awesome Sal B Spectacular page with uniquely cool shots of Spidey and Green Goblin throughout. 

Nice bronze age Chaykin battle art and first appearance page with some sex appeal in that final panel, very cool! congrats Jordan!

A cel from the opening titles of a Pink Panther film is a feather in your animation cel collection's cap! kudos and congrats!
