Detailed and elegant!  Well chosen character.  They are pricey, but Silvestri gives you your money's worth!


So pricey, but so cool looking.

Smooth Frisson art!  The shading and the white paint shows the method used to add or reduce realistic tones.


Apparently my scanner app did not like this paper. The scan looked terrible. I had to use the regular camera to try and preserve the look.

A highlight from Episode 2 - Congrats! 


Thanks! I wasn't expecting to buy a Star Wars page that day at the con, but when I saw it, I couldn't pass it up.

Sublime colors!  The greens from behind and the orange glow ahead of him shows Swamp Thing marching forward towards the light.  If Campbell had been on more than Hellblazer, we could have seen this take on Swamp Thing. 


The colors are so vivid. Just impressive work. DC has his number and should give him a call.

Nice page!  I haven't been reading, but I've seen Adam post his work on social media and he is doing a fantastic job with the book.  Congrats!


I've only read the first issue, but his art on this series has been phenomenal.

Always exciting when his commissions are of characters he hasn't done before.  This is showing how Samnee would have handled this series if it was still going!      


Exactly! It was an expensive way to get an answer to that question.

It's exactly how Rogue looks in X-Men '97 form if the colors were drained away from a cel.  What they couldn't take away is how hot she looks in all her 90's fashion!


After reviewing my art purchases from SDCC, I was apparently in a Rogue mood.

Doug's style was perfect for THE TICK. It's a shame the series didn't go longer.

Great page.


His style really worked well with that series. I was bummed when it fizzled out so quickly.

Sienkiewicz will certanly dominate and obliterate the penciller's art.  They know what they are signing up for and know he'll increase intensity in illustration or mood.  


That's actually what Mike told me when I bought the page. His pencils were a lot looser for this than the other page I bought because he knew Sienkiewicz was inking it.

Beautiful late 70's and early 80's vector graphics aesthetic!  You can sense the lines are to be colored in hot neons for a video game look.


That's definitely a main factor for me in the draw of this piece.

Great modern styled B&V girl art!  One bad girl and one good girl shown!  They might be the type to change up once you get to know them better.

Big moment for Cyclops on this page!  But Captain Britain took his best and gets up ready to exact some payback!  Big time forceful images by Lim and Gordon that look like they are about to bust out of the page! 


This was the gem of my pieces from SDCC. Absolutely love the dynamic imagery on it.

Oh wow. I missed this one...But I did get the Harley Quinn this past week. If you let this one ever go I would be interested. Superman is a favorite for me. This is very handsome. Congratulations!


Superman's a favorite of mine as well. But, I'll let you know. 
 

That Harley was very cool, and it was hard not to grab it.

Solicted in 1996, but never released comic.  The game did not do well as it came at the tail end of 1995 when Genesis was being overtaken by next gen Saturn and Playstation.


Thanks for that. I saw that issue 3 was solicited and cancelled before release, but I couldn't find anything on issue 1. Joyce thought it had been released, but I couldn't find it in any of the usual places. 
 

I remember playing the game and thinking it was cool. I couldn't pass up these pages.

Oh the HOT CLAWS, how I thought you would be fun to see more of but it seemed to fizzle away like the melted snow on this page.  Really fun page a good point in Wolverine's twisted history. 


There is a direct correlation between my owning this page and my purchase of the Marvel Legends Hot Claws Wolverine.

Brian Level's art for this title is some of his best!  This cover tells a story all its own.  If I didn't know better, this is some Dukes of Hazzard and Daisy on the run from a cult.

Immonen did wonderful work on Superman back in the day, but I feel it often gets overshadowed by his later Marvel work.  That should not be the case, as evidenced here.  Love the facial exprsssions and body language throughout.


Definitely agree. The expressions and body language were a major attraction for me with this page.
