Thanks, but I don't know if these two have any longevity in the industry. Probably just flavor of the moment artists.
No Ballistic on it, but still dope!
I was going to write that this cover is in a better place now, but that isn't quite right. It's not sitting in a portfolio, in a tub I never open, under a stack of boxes, in my comic room anymore. Enjoy!
Yup, I'm about nine months behind posting art here. Thank you for making this happen.
My first exposure to Achilleos was through the cards in the 90s too. It's crazy to me that I used to look at his work on litle pieces of card board that were 2.5 x 3.5 inches and now I get to look at an orginal that's the size of a movie poster.
My favorite Heinlein novel of all time and the first sci-fi book I ever read!
Tank you for letting me know about this. Do you have any idea where this is from?
Wow, he did this only four years into his career! Just stunning!
Killer commission! I can't wait to see what they do with the Darkness relaunch.
That expression on her face. Priceless. Just like your's when you saw the piece uncensored.
Ah, 2003! When Marvel and DC were $1.99, Wizard was a monthly magazine with a useful price guide, and Top Cow put out Darkness and Witchblade. I miss that era.
I offered to let you buy it, but I think you were still dealing with the eBas Slave Leia purchase.
His art looks way better in B&W then the color in the comic.
I believe it's for the 1968 movie which does have a 4.5 rating on IMDB.
You probably shouldn't listen to this friend. I bet they have an art spending problem themselves.
And so begins the slide down the slippery slope that is Heritage!
It's the prelim that's just that nice. The finished version is super crisp and clean compared this this.
Thanks, it came from one of the Comiclink auctions.
Ha, me neither! So I edited some things out and finished the story with the part about getting this piece after a slight delay. It only took about five months from the beginning to the end! After I put in my initial bid, I never looked at it again, so i had no idea what the bids looked like or how close I might have come to not getting this.
I wasn't quite liquidate the brokerage account, but it was a stretch for me and I didn't have as much as I wanted at OAX. As a result of buying this, I've missed out on buying a few other pieces that I'm sure will cost me dearly if and when they come up for sale again.
They're a new art dealer and apparently needed to figure things out.
That's it, you right, it totally remonds me of Jones's art. I love her stuff.
You know, that Tactical Studies Rules place. I think they might have done something cool once with Buck Rogers!
Yup, four in the early 90s and 2 in 1997. The publisher was probably doing that to get money to make up for the losses they were taking as each distributor closed.
Thanks, I bought these back in October 2004 from Albert Moy when he still had a ton of Planetary pages with the intention of getting the previous pages too. But when I went back, most of them had already sold.
Proof that the money saved by getting a dollar store phone case isn't worth it.
This cover reminds me of the 1978 Dawn of the Dead movie when the motorcycle gang is being overun by the mall zombies!
Very cool, I recommend getting the omnibus, it has all the issues plus a bunch of pin-ups.
Thanks for teh heads up Roger, I pulled up yours, mine, and looked at the printed cover, and I see very suble differences in the inking of Valkyrie's left leg and some of the brush work under the wing. But it looks almost like he light boxed it.
Thank you for hesitating! Dan said this was the last Lady Justice cover he had and he won't be selling any more Psycho or Thrillkiller pages. It's getting harder (and more expensive) to get his work from this era.
Hey Christopher, no big deal. I used to place throwaway bids on pieces I was watching but realized I wasn't going to win. Just to drive the price up. Then I realized that it's just going to mean that the next similar piece will be priced higher now that we've moved the floor price up. So now I try to not bid on things until nearly the end.
Or it just means I'm the fool who paid way more then it's worth. I don't think I would feel as bad if the seller didn't play around with the price or dangle a B.S. make offer. If he was hoping for an absolutely insane offer, then he should have put a Buy It Now.
Hey Marcus thanks for pointing this out. I looked at the credits in the issue and lists Hitch and Sinclair but doesn't specify who did what. So i thought, did Hitch really do all that background work or did Sinclair do it? I guess he did do it all himself.
Thank you for setting me straight. Before buying the page, I hadn't reread the book in decades and I had no idea so many people worked on the issue. Also the seller didn't know the creators either so I kind of muddled this one.
