Great and fun art. And a fantastic background story behind it all. Congratulations on the acquisition of a very cool piece.

What a stroke of genius it was for you to reach out and inquire about these pages. This one and the other one are so masterfully painted it feels like I'm in the scene with the characters.

Thanks for sharing these, and for introducing me to the artist.

This picture has such a visceral sense of movement. When I look at this one image, I can see the samurai walking across the page.

Simply stunning! Congratulations on the acquisition.

Why did I see the editorial note at the top of the page and immediately wonder, "When did the University of North Carolina have an X-Men comic book?"

Besides that, what's immediately great about this page is Duursema smooth striking line. Four big panels with Storm front and center, feeling very welcome in the downpour. And dialogue dialogue dialogue that tell us who she is in her own words.

Great page!

Incredible Wrightson page. Easily stare-able!

Phenomenal statement page. John and Kilowog stating "We're here and it's time to get down to business!"

Hal & Adam together, drawn by Bright? Oh holy Oa, what a great page!

Broderick drew a great Green Lantern. This is a cool page of Guardians.

This is a bloody fantastic GL picture!

OUTSTANDING!

Spectacular layout. And the rings cracklin' with energy makes us all aware of the force about to be unleashed. Congrats!

What an incredible page! Kudos to you for the great job and for having fun doing it!

What a fantastic page of Lanterns! Hamilton creates magic

From one GL fantatic to another, I have to admit that Staton era is one of my two or three favorite GL eras.

It's amazing that after he left GL to try to make First Comics a success by serving as Art Director, he returned to GL and drew GL Corps for a while.

Great Staton GL page here, with a fine face panel, a couple of in-flight panels, and some cool dialogue along the way. I love it!

JH Williams turns even a simple talking heads page into an artistic overachievement. 

Great inking on this page, Michael. Nice to hear your approach to the work. It sure paid off here. Headshot insets always get the win.

Great painting of Starfire in all her hair glory. You struck gold with this commission!

I absolutely LOVE the unusual panel shapes. It a signal the artist really enjoyed drawing the page, and his joy infects me to smile as my eyes take it all in.

Really REALLY nice page. Congrats

Wonderful page, Matt

Poifect! It could not have happened to a nicer guy.

Magnificent! That first fun of Doctor Mirage was my favorite Valiant title. The story was so different from the run-of-the-mill set-ups for superheroes. Sort of like how Archer & Armstrong was a different breed.

This page is perfect, especially with the big cat entering in the final panel.

I could not be more envious! This page is about thirteen kinds of magnificent! Great get!

Incredible piece. Congratulation on the get!

What an awesome Chang page. That fourth panel is too creepily great

Ordway over Perez is magically awesome. Great page!

A very cool Pasarin page, with a lot of that detail that he adds and adds and adds. The panels do a good job of showing us the scale of the shot.

Sue, Ben and T'Challa!?!?!? By Paul Ryan? Now that's a fantastic page!

Amazing picture of Hal by Byrne! Wow

I love the whole set-up of this page, including the shadow announcing Grendel.

The way Argent leaps from the window. The way Grendel appears to be hiding above/behind the light fixture. The shadow approaching Barry. The blades nudging off the glasses. And the different reflections in each lense.

So much black ink used on these pages to great effect.

I had not noticed that difference until you pointed it out. Now that I see it, I agree.

A truly phenomenal painting. Huge congratulations on that picture!

Great crossover that absolute MAKES this simple sketch. Mage as GL? Oh yeah, I'm with that!

Throw in some chick-parm and all I need is a bottle of vino. Love the story about the chick-parm.

"Probably heard about the caterer." The perfect line. Just like the perfect art, the perfect story, and such bold images of Grendel in this story.

Congrats on the get!

A great SMT page, made all the greater by the dialogue. Very nice, indeed.

Incredible page on so many levels. From the all black borders, to the "I'm Bustin' Out (in)" first panel, to the great shots of Orion in action (getting tossed around). The kineticism is almost visceral.

Congratulations on getting such a great page!

Thanks. I was looking for an Igle page and the action on this combined with getting Luke and Logan also, was a perfect combination. And having Psylocke made it even better.

Still looking for the right Igle GL page to make mine.  

Outstanding. Great idea by you to put these two together in a commission!

I never thought about that. I'll add the prelim as an extra pic on this entry.

My theme is two heroes from different comic book universes fighting a villain, with a rapper and a real life strong-willed female.

Lapham was to do Green Lantern & Dr Strange fighting Dormammu. Tupac and Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson were in the pic. David was also going to add a lot of extras, like some Stray Bullets characters, Wonder Woman, Jean Grey, and more.

I hope to get the finished picture one day. It will be worth the wait.

Awesome detailed page by Lapham. He sets a great scene with five smooth storytelling panels.

Simply stunning! This is a spot-on Dr Strange shot. The colors and detail is top notch. I can't express how much I love this picture.

Congratulations

Outstanding! That picture makes me think I can hear him scritching around on the roof over my head.

Awesome page. Perfectly encapsulates the legend that is Hellboy. Love the way the he realizes the ring is actually a little snake.

Put me down as a Matt Clark fan, also. He seems to really get into the hair of his characters. Their whole face/head, but way into the hair. I love it!

His Troia is superb. 

A great page. Barreto lays out the scene so masterfully. His figures always look so fluid and natural. Such an underrated artist, who should be mentioned with the greats.

Outstanding page. Cloak looks ready to go toe-to-toe with Stephen. Barreto nailed this page!

Breathtakingy magnficent. Congrats!

Great pages telling a great story about the great Grendel. Nice acquisition!

Awesome cover!

I'm a low-budget collector and only have one cover in my modest collection. So, I FULLY understand how tremendous it must feel to get a cover of your favorite character. Congratulations on the acquisition. May there be more to come.

Good grief! What an amazing Giffen Creeper page! Congrats!!!
