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.
I've been searching for this cover forever. Glad to see it finally turn up! I used to own the Spider-femme one.
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.
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.
I'm in the exact same boat! I just never knew where to start reading. I can't believe what I've been missing all these years!
The series I really love that Frazer drew for DC was called Xombi- highly recommend but unfortunately the art was all done digitally.
It was a private piece done for collector Martin "Buzzy" Gran who corresponded with Watterson for several years.
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.
Dave Stevens used to bug me to let him ink Death's arm because it drove him crazy looking at it. Aargh, I should have let him.
Hi George! Just got your recent Art List email and it lead me to revisit your gallery. Boy, what a great couple of Plastic Man splashes! If you ever considering selling them- or even just the GA page, please keep me in mind.
That's one of two advertising pieces Dave did that were published in Guitar Player magazine. This one was an ad for the BOSS DF-2 "Super distortion & Feedbacker" foot pedal. It was published in Guitar Player #180, Dec 1984.
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.
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.
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.
Awesome piece! Tho I think you mean Malcolm Jones, III who inked the interiors, not Les Dorsheid. Les is/was Kelley's longtime colorist.
That's wonderful! Congrats!
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.
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.
Hey Jeff, I believe you are thinking of Gen13/Superman which Adam wrote and Lee Bermejo drew. Adam wrote and pencilled Ordinary Heroes- with Mark Farmer inks.
You can't beat Godzilla and Kim Jong Il together on the same piece of art.
Awesome piece. I remember watching him draw this(or something exactly like it) at SDCC.
