Very cool and certainly a respectful (yet playful) homage to the King. If only all those that borrowed from Mezieres would be so kind as to return the acknowledgement, it would be a long list.
You are welcome! What are friends for! I know you discussed a bit about the page in the store but didn't realize how deep your appreciation for it and its content was. It has certainly found the right home.
This is so cool! The cover is such an iconic image for Grell on this book but seeing the back cover which I had long forgotten about is fun. It reminds me a bit of AD&D Original Players Handbook cover and then seeing it with the backcover portion.
Fantastic page! This is THE page to own from the book. I think DWJ's approach to Beta Ray Bill was inspired.
Great daily. The treatment of the night scenes is remarkable!
Fantastic and as solid a provenance as you can get with a shikishi. A photo is worth 1000 COAs.
Super page! So distinctively Colan and of that era.
Super! You could write an essay about this peice and how Breccia saw himself. Very touching and challenging piece.
Thanks for sharing. It was Fedex this time for me. Next time it could be UPS or Canada Post. Big corporations. Within the corporations there are people that care and do their job properly and there are those that don't and mistakes happen. In the grand scheme of things like life and health. These are not really important problems so I try not to get upset about them. It is part of every collectors journey. I am waiting for them to bill me the brokerage fees for doing nothing.
Great looking art by Pope. Has the feel of traditional Japanese and Chinese illustrations but with a modern flare.
Nice dailies. McWilliams is the poster child for underated artists. His name and style were to similar to Al Williamson and he never worked on any bigger popular comics so he never got the recognition he deserved. There is a real skill in making a character black in the pen and ink form, a real understanding of art and human form. Dateline Danger was a progressive strip with a black hero and some great adventures. It was an important milestone in comic strips.
Amazing and memorable cover by an artistic team that ushered in a new era of comics and comic art.
Fantastic looking page. Sam knew his way around inks.
Fantastic sequence. As you mention the 9 panel grid is used to great effect here showing an early confidence and fluency in the lexicon of comics.
I love this piece. I wish I had been paying more attention. It is perfect and such a great illustration. Very happy for you adding this to your already brilliant collection.
Perfect for your collection. Only the best and Nate's work on this book rises to that thresold and beyond.
Great looking page with fantastic DD portrait and full figure art.
I love seeing your explore young and up and coming artists, especially from the Indie space. It is so important for the future of comics as much as is your mission to preserve the past.
I like the other pages better from an art point of view but this is interesting from a content point of view. The highlighted words "Black Canary Chesty Girl Gladiator" then she erupts... like an angry geyser. Target Jaw. Maybe I've reading too much Wertham but I am not sure that is all accidental.
Really great page. I love Anderson of this era and some of his quirks in style come through nicely on this page. It is fantastic.
Very cool page from a great run! At 9 years old, I imagine this didn't make sense but at the same time the art clicked. I was 13 or 14 when Bill tore into the New Mutants and I loved the art right away and got the stories which were a bit trippy. As for the art, Mary and Bill collaborated on a few things during this time period. I believe they were in a relationship and that might explain the team up. Her pencils are overpowered by Bill's inks so much so that other than a layout/pacing/design that doesn't quite look like Bill's, he made the rest his own.
Having seen this page now in person 13 years after you posted it, it is still amazing. If it ever needs to move on to another collector, you know who to contact!!
This is such a great idea and Sanya really brought this home with her style and aesthetic. Really, really fantastic.
Incredible. George really went over and above any expectations here. Easily cover quality and one of his best pieces.
Wonderful Burns with all the creepyness you could want. Love the inking.
Very pensive and quiet piece. I love the design. SO Jaime.
Fun piece with classic design/style and modern color choices. Matt is a rising star.
Most comments ever on a an Archie page of this era! Perhaps more comments than on all Archie pages of this era combined! Fun page and as others have alluded to, the lower limb injury speaks to the owner's personal experience.
Fantastic page. Munoz and Breccia would have been proud of their pupil.
These are fantastic pages by Nate. Great choices. This work has transcended the medium and become part of general culture. It can see it being used in schools to teach history. The themes are just as relevent now, if not more, as they were back then.
Very cool, the nostalgia force is strong with this one for me. The first series was around when I first started collecting and remember riding home on my BMX from 7 Eleven with Annual 1 making sure to keep it in mint condition. If only I still had that comic now in that condition, I could have retired!
This is great! When the time comes to sell or if you want to make a lateral trade, keep me in mind.
Great layout with the central image perfectly placed over the detailed cityscape. The perspective and skill of the architectural elements are pretty amazing and must have taken a lot of time and effort.
Nice art. I was introduced to the artist at an exhibition in Angouleme in 2023. There was a real atmosphere to the art and pages that celebrated culture in an inclusive and inviting way. I had no idea they were suffering with an illness.
Great looking piece. I saw Sean share the image a few weeks back and thought it was great. I am really happy to see others taking notice of her work and the rest of the funny farm at Athenaeum art. Sean is doing important work there.
Out of this world! It couldn't have crash landed in a better collection.
Nice daily. I really like these early dailies from Winnie, Tillie, Blondie and Boots. Early feminism to go along with the flapper era and suffrage.
Great looking Burns page. Having just gotten one myself after over a decade of looking, I know how hard they are to locate. Congratulations , the art is beautiful.
Really nice. The inkwash tones really add depth to piece.
I don't recall this comic but Steve Rude is a perfect artist for Magnus. He channels Manning so well but makes it his own. Wish he had done more.
