There is not enough Nikki Cook art on CAF. Glad to find this great piece though!
It has been a fun little subset to dabble in, although with all of these dramatic strips I may soon need to find a Flintstones or Yogi Bear to add to the mix.
I was with Jason and a couple others when he called you over, and there were 2 or 3 of us who would have grabbed it if you had passed and walked away. I could have been an X-owner and broken free of my lane!
I'll be sure to add that tidbit of collector provenance to my notes on the piece!
One of my favorite art teams of the Dark Horse era of Star Wars, and Cade was a great and complex character evolving slowly throughout the series, attemptiing at first to not overcome his heritage but detach from it completely. Great page, congrats!
Indeed it does, Ruben. When our nostalgia picks can be multiple touchstones to our past they are all the more meaningful.
It just needs Bugs Bunny popping up saying "I knew I should’ve taken that left turn at Albuquerque. Wait, I'm still in Albuquerque!"
Marc did some great inking on this series, always enjoy looking at his boards.
Zip-A-Tone was not a thing until two years later, when it launched in 1937. I guess McClure might have used Havy Q. R. Crowder's patented drawing sheets (which he started developing in the early 1920s) with a suitable adhesive. But that would have a very different overall effect. His invention consisted of a pad of pre-printed sheets of patterns and grids but on thin paper. Zip was the first commercial product (at least that I'm aware of) to use cellulose acetate to allow a transparent transfer medium for the screen tones. I feel a need to fall down a rabbit hole on this one and do some good ol' research!
No solid outline, all tufts and fluff. A very cool technique indeed.
I was also 37th underbidder on the Return of the Jedi page, so glad this baby was already in the bank!
I am instantly drawn to the eyes of Daigor, and those of the poor bastard behind him being head chopped above the nose. Witness the cherry blossom falling almost as soon as it comes to life.
Hold onto your hat, Kavi. Over the next few days I'll be posting some pieces that climbed all the way up into the low three figures!
Hard to resist a few examples of these kind of inks for those kinds of prices. Although I wish that a few of them could be $20 Winsor McCay Little Nemo strips. Wouldn't that be a treat?
Scooby is the top spokesdog for summertime fun and hot dogs, surely.
A flawless execution of technique and style on this one. If only we could all swing in for a quick change with that kind of dexterity, we'd all be superheroing it to work all the time.
Thanks! Now when I have to do it live and in the moment and freeze up I can fall back on your line!
Incredible. Nothing else to say. Congrats.
And boom goes the dynamite. Baller.
If you go for Jedi Luke, then you'll have to also circle back for farmboy Luke to complete the trifecta! Great mystery sketch, congrats.
And so it begins, Lando first using Drebble's name as his alias happens just a few pages after donning this disguise. And by issue 79 he'll develop it to full on Space Pirate Captain Harlock mode. A classic issue from the back half of the series. Congrats!
The F-80 (and its two-seat trainer twin the T-33) is one of my all time favorite airframes. The Shooting Star epitomizes the Mid-Century Modern designs of the era with its aerodynamic sleek, minimalist form, and organic curves. A great strip!
Man, Lubbers hadn't hit my radar yet. But look at that signature in panel 3! Just a great as the rest of the art.
A classic film and a classy commission. One of the squirrels in my collection is a page from the comic adaptation. I bought a page for me and gave one as a gift to my sister. I should have bought a whole lot more. Congrats!
Lovely! When I was collecting actual comics back in the day, my X-Men run was complete back to issue 40, and scattered back to this issue as my earliest. Nice to reminisce and feel the nostalgia for this book again. Congrats CAB
Rolling into the weekend with swirly knees and an ice cream, ah the good ol' summertime!
Growing up mostly a Marvel maniac, I've never heard of Origami Man before now. I'm intrigued, and now must do a little back issue bin diving!
This issue had so many turning points for the overall story arc. Keeve and Terec's undercover moission going wrong. Lourna Dee unleashing the Nameless. And Avar Kriss's aggressive determination to hunt down Dee bringing her into direct conflict with Stellan Gios and the rest of the Jedi Council. This is a great page of Kriss and Dee facing off!
I know! Nailed my flowing red mane and trademark over the knee boots. Details matter.
Now that is a trio without question! Oh, I guess with Question. You know what I mean.
Stardate 1312.4. The crew posed for the latest Star Fleet yearbook today. Bones and Spock will also appear in pictures for the badminton team, while Uhura is still head of the chess club.
Amazing this survived! Awesome to see, glad you shared here.
No worries Tom, this is about 3 or 4 SDCC's worth that I had backlogged. But you are right. Probably due for a flip after SDCC next month.
I would be 1000% on board with a High Republic animated series. Get on it D+!
It has been a fun side quest for those times when I'm not chasing Star Wars stuff. Good luck for when you start your hunt!
