Incredible style, rhythmic repetition and draftsmanship. Gorgeous pages - it seems like he put maximum thought and effort into making them.  

What a stunner! A one and done-r! Mindblowing

I loved this from first sight. Great choice, JV is a master of color theory. There is so much going on under the surface. Sorry for the geek out that follows.

1. The acid green sky vs THB's red shoulder puts the eye at the center of the page. These complementary (contrasting) colors are extended upward from that central focus by dividing the page in two fields of harmonious analogous colors (yellow/green and purple/red) on either side of the central lightning bolt.

2. He takes care to balance the page horizontally by putting opposing dashes of the yellow and green next to Batman and a dash of THB's red in Haggard West's scarf on the left.

3. He also repeats colors on a more vertical axis. S from Heavy Liquid is lavender on the bottom left to balance the purple sky on the top right. THB is red on the bottom right to balance the SKREE red letter on the top left. 

4. JV honors the U shaped composition with matching gradients on the skies on either side of the lightning bolt. The skies darken to blue and purple (analogous) which creates a frame of soothing colors around the brightness in the center.

Given the number of characters in the piece, it could have been a mad jumble. He's so skilled that he tied it all together while making it clash where it needed to clash.

I love this. Postcards! Prints! T-shirts! Mugs! Congrats!

Jason, always great to hear from you! Thanks for the thoughtful comment, as always. I hope you have an incredible 2026. Happy New Year!

A collector owning a painting by a painter who is teaching the collector to paint. That's so cool!

Love this! Clever way to create depth and visual interest.

Love this page. Jaime had a blast indeed.

Incredible piece!!

Take a soak in the brain juice oozing out of the pipes. Strange worlds created by a strange mind. I like the bracketed reaction tri-panel in the lower right as well. Clever cartooning. Double green heart!

Coil, stretch, release! Such a cool page. Green heart

Killer page! Jorge is awesome

Great piece! So cool to see them all together. His line has so much character.

Incredible page! It must feel amazing to achieve this collecting goal. Starts with a KKRMPP and ends with a SKKRAKK. I also love the KLIK, which plays a role in so many of the great scenes in the book. Well done!!

SO cool to see how everything connects! :-)

Mastery!

Great finish!

I LOVE the storytelling on this pages with all the little beats on the Urasawa panels.

Reveal!

Is there a little white paint blended with the wash on the swabbed deck in panel 4? 

Looks like one of those spacey Kirby mixed media pages!

Don't pull that one!!!!

Congrats!!! Great catch. I like how he established depth with the hats, the shady pillar and distance haze. How can we compete if you know about it before Felix does??? :-)

Likewise! Great to see you. It was awesome. Hope you had a great time!

Bold, powerful strokes with the palette knife! Great acquisition!

Great piece, great quote!
