It deserves and has the animation colors of the 80's to make this piece complete.


Definately,  I normally just get a B/W ink commission,  but this one had to be in color.  I could not even imagine it any other way.

Bonus value stamps!  Great commission using most of the Archieverse!


 

I think I have 5 of the 8 sample artwork Mr Boldman did for the 2010 USPS Sundy Funnies Commerative stamp series.   

I'm trying to figure out how I can set up my frame so I can see both sides of the art page.   So far the only workable solution I have heard of is attaching two frames together.   

I might make copies and have Mr Boldman color them for me and frame those separately.

A modern piece by him is just as rare as his earliest works.  Great reworking of the concept!


I leave most of it up to each artist.  I pick the starting cover (All-Star Comics #37) and I pick the group to use (popeye heroes/villains)

The rest as far as who is used / how the heroes are restrained / what the villains a doing is mainly their imagination.

So it is always a great surprise when it arrives. :-)

Staton takes that classic and dials in just the right tone for this age period  class of characters!  A big catch from Heroes Con!


Thanks.  I am always thrilled to find artists who can do the "old style" because that is what I grew up on and brings back the fond childhood memories.

Looks great with a solid update of style and substance!


Thanks Marcus,

I was also impressed with the creativity.  I just listed the characters to use and the cover to base it on.   The characters being behind the glass, the detail in the map with the names of the towns from the cartoon, the symbol and name of the villian's group was all Mr Boldman.

The storytelling is complex and far beyond what normal storyboards would look like as Toth adds notes and shading that is playing out in his mind.


I've never looked at story boards for other shows,  I'll have to check it out.  I just thought that is how all cartoons were laid out. 

But you are right, with this much detail, it is like an actual comic page and shows he had the whole story in his mind and not just a plot idea.

I also have a lot of the pencil drawings for this episode ... none that match this part of the story...a page or two after.   I'll be posting all those later.

First of all, Craig, well come to the hobby! It's always cool to see new people entering. Secondly, welcome to Comic Art Fans. You'll find that the more you interact with other collectors here, by leaving them comments and always making it a habit to click the thumbs up button beside every comment that others leave for you in order to let them know you've read the comments and appreciate them for taking the time to leave them, you'll start making new friends in this hobby faster than you can imagine.  😊

Fun page you got here. I love Dr. Fate's costume, especially his helmet, so it's a bonus any time he's on a page. It's interesting that a convenience store of all places still had copies of All-Star Squadron #1 available on the racks when issue #4 had just come in. But all the better for you!


Thanks Ruben,  I've browsed Comic Art Fans off and on for over a year before I joined.  Always impressed by all the artwork that people have collected.   I'm thrilled that I can be a part of it now.

Dr Fate has always been one of my favorites from the Super Squad days.  

I grew up in a small town and no comic shops in the area (that I know of)  The store itself had very few comics at all...maybe 20 in total scattered with other magazines...and appearantly spanning several months.
