DAREDAME Spoof Comics #5 Adam Hughes Owner: Bret Mixon Comment posted on 5/2/2025
Bret Mixon said:
Long ago, I had Super-Babe, too. You have an amazing collection of Adam's work, particularly that Starfire ceneterfold - wow!  Thx! I was lucky to become friends with Adam when I first started collecting and have tried to get good examples from each stage of his career. |

Why I Hate Saturn Cover Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 3/10/2025
Felix Lu said:
Crazy that Baker still had this after all these years. Congrats to you on Jason being the one to dig it out...might have been a lot more painful otherwise! (Also got something from Jason in a similar manner and am just as grateful!) Thanks! I actually bugged Kyle about it for almost two decades. I first asked him about the cover at a con in the late 90's and he thought he still had the cover and agreed to sell it when/if he could find it. After he moved multiple times without finding the cover, I assumed he'd either sold it years ago and forgotten, or that it was just lost. The last time I asked Kyle about it before Jason got i, was at a 2018 show in Las Vegas. |

Grips #1, p.18 Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 2/13/2023
Brad Herman said:
Whoa! I would love to know the journey of this piece of artwork. I actually owned it in 87-90. My mom bought it for me when I was 16 years old, and I in turn sold it, along with my collection in 90 or 91 to a comic store in Minneapolis. Such an epic piece. Congratulations on owning it!!! Thanks for the background. I bought it both this and page 22 off ebay in 2007 from the same seller. I'm afraid I don't have any other records about the sale or where the seller was based. |

Seven Soldiers: Klarion the Witch Boy #4, p.2 Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 12/14/2020
Comic Art Channel said:
Fantastic splash! Haven't gotten around to reading this series yet after paying up for the out of print omnibus but art like this gets me excited to. The series I really love that Frazer drew for DC was called Xombi- highly recommend but unfortunately the art was all done digitally. |

I love this so much! Do you know what it was used for? It was a private piece done for collector Martin "Buzzy" Gran who corresponded with Watterson for several years. |

Tintin and Snowy sketch Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 8/28/2020
George Hagenauer said:
Quinn's father was a diplomat in Europe and as a teen or younger Larry spent his time contacting cartoonists . He regularly visited Herge and each time brought a book- this is a clipped fly from one of the books as I have the onl ydrawing on paper. I thin khe had about 9 or 10 books with drawings and inscriptions. I got the books from Quinn in the 1980s. I owned all of them up but sold or traded them off i nthe 1990s- 2010- tht is the history of it . Best George Thanks for the background George! This one's actually still in the book- a french copy of Tintin in America. I got it from Rob Stolzer back in... wow- 2000. |

Batman/Superman Commission by Bill Sienkiewicz Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 8/18/2014
Damon Wright said:
Amen to that, me too. Yeah, I got a bunch of stuff from Mitch back then. Then I didn't buy again until just this past year. The true crown jewel of my collection is my Sienkiewicz Unforgiven painting. I'll never part with it. Wow, you have the Unforgiven painting. You gotta post that! Mine is probably the Amazing Heroes #99 cover, but Bill is so versatile! I appreciate different pieces for different reasons- as you do I'm sure. |

Batman/Superman Commission by Bill Sienkiewicz Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 8/17/2014
Damon Wright said:
And he succeeded as usual! :) If I ever get around to posting pics, you'll get to see it again. It's been framed and hanging for...I dunno...15 years or so? I've had it for a long time, one of my jewels. Great job getting this color piece, you have to be proud! 15 years sounds about right- I commissioned the painting right after SDCC 2001. I recall it was around the time Bill starting doing shows and taking commissions again after a few years hiatus. At that point I'm pretty sure the last time I saw the original was at least a couple of years- maybe at Mitch's booth? I want to say it was on someone's wall at SDCC. Ah, my brain is stuffed with too comic art minutia. |

Batman/Superman Commission by Bill Sienkiewicz Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 8/17/2014
Damon Wright said:
OK, granted I am 5 years late replying to this...but I have the original Heroes Against Hunger pinup he did, back cover, I think it was. It is AWeSOmE as all of his stuff is. I have a fair amount of his originals, from the unexpected to the more normal. Just love em all! And this painting is definitely oustanding. :) This commission was indeed based on the Heroes Against Hunger backcover. Always loved how Bill contrasted Superman and Batman on that image. It'd been a few years since the last sighting original- which, if memory serves, was done on kraftint, and Bill was up for giving it a go in color. |

Kelley Jones - Batman/Dracula: Red Rain Promo Owner: Satya Chetri Comment posted on 2/22/2014 Awesome piece! Tho I think you mean Malcolm Jones, III who inked the interiors, not Les Dorsheid. Les is/was Kelley's longtime colorist. |

FAKE Arthur Adams Sketch #1 - Wolverine Owner: Kelvin Mao Comment posted on 11/27/2013

Arthur Adams, Colossus Owner: Owen Miller Comment posted on 11/27/2013 FYI, Chuck just posted a scan of the one authenticated by Arthur http://www.comicartfans.com/gallerypiece.asp?piece=1075173 Arthur's wife Joyce just confirmed on facebook that the other sketches are also not legit. Sorry, dude. |

Arthur Adams, Wolverine Owner: Owen Miller Comment posted on 11/27/2013 Sorry to have to confirm what Tim said, but I also have a "version" of this Wolverine. Probably like you I bought it from "Brand X Graphics" out of CBG years ago. I bought mine around 1991 along with a Longshot which turned out to be traced off an original Longshot mini-series page- which I later owned and was able to actually lay the piece over. Unfortunately this dealer was notorious for doing this and for years there were a ton of these things floating around. The real Wolverine is/was owned by another So Cal collector- which is how I came to find out mine was fake. The Rogue is definitely fake as are the rest if they came from the same source. A friend of mine literally just sold the real Colossus on ebay a month or two ago. I had Arthur authenticate it in person so he could sell it with a clean conscience. I kept a scan and can post it in my CAF along with scans of my fakes if you like. |
