I've been a fan of Nico's scratchboard work for years. Amazing stuff, great score!

Wonderful page from an iconic storyline! Congrats!

Thanks, but with the vampire up for sale looks like that goal isn't going to happen. Still plan on hanging on to the zombie though.

I've been on a sabatical from buying new art for awhile so I'm not following the auctions (to avoid temptation.) But if I had known this was up on HA, I would've gone for it as well! Great score, congrats!

Thanks, Bill! For a number of reasons, I've had to liquidate most of my collection over the last year but this is one of the few I hope to hold onto!

Thanks, Jason. Really love the action on this page - it's like three mini splashes!

Thanks, Bill! The female is actually a recurring character in some of Mike's illustrations (according to his book, "The Art of Ploog 2".)  And it looks like she's down to her last arrow. Futile, indeed!
What amazed me about this piece is that the colors are applied so smoothly, I initially thought it was a print. For someone who became famous for drawing werewolfs and monsters, it made me appreciate Mike's talent even more.

A great page from the first Conan issue I ever read. Congrats@

A great addition to your phenomenal collection of covers! Congrats!

Love this wash technique, beautiful piece!

Boy, this takes me back! Great score on a wonderful bronze cover!

Great score! Starlin didn't draw the Hulk too often but he nailed this one, congrats!

Outstanding piece, congrats Larry!

Thanks - still in the honeymoon stage myself with this one. :)

Wow, what a score! Your description is a bit subdued... would love to hear how this came about!

Coming from a Marvel guy, this was an amazing acquistion! Congrats!

Beautifully drawn! One of the few DC storylines I truly enjoyed. Congrats!

Thanks, Chris. It's discovering gems like this at comparatively low-cost that make this hobby so much fun!

Ok, I know which cover you're referring to, thanks!

Touching story about Tim, wish I had the opportunity to have met him. Absolutely love this piece, an example of a wonderful range of value and details without being overbearing.

Beautiful page, congrats!

Congrats on 500 posts! And how rare to get a vertical double page for a cover, from Deodato of all people?!? Very cool piece!

Nice score, Jason!

Love to see Galactus portrayed in all his majestic might. One of the most stunning interpretations I've ever seen, congrats!

 Let me guess; sung to the tune of "Precious and Few"?

You missed your calling as a lyricist. :)

Spectaculer - love these extra large pieces! Congrats!

Appreciate it, Tony! Feel free to stop by any time and visit. :)

Thanks, Rob. Really appreciate the additional info.

Agreed. Hitch's attention to detail is nothing short of astounding. He hardly ever took the easy way out of a drawing.

I can't tell, is that the Ultimate Nullifier in Reed's hand? Great looking piece, congrats!

While I wasn't a fan of Kirby's return to the title after Sal's run, who wouldn't love a Cap cover by the King? A lot of action here, congrats!

What a great score, Dino! Sal always packed a lot of action in his Defenders covers and this was one of the best!

Ah, the memories these Treasure editions invoked... was always very excited to see a new one pop up on the stands, even for the outrageous price of $1.50. Was an early opportunity to read back issues.

Have really grown to appreciate Sienkiewicz's style over the years. Beautiful splash!

Jesus, Marcus, is there anything you don't know? :) Appreciate it!

Wonderful page from a great bronze issue! Congrats!!

One of the most dynamic poses I've ever seen of Spidey! Congrats, Ron!!

Beautiful iconic cover, Dino! Congrats!

Agreed, a very dynamic way to frame a page. Looks even better in person!

Don't read as much DC compared to Marvel but as a big fan of DPS's, this is a spectacular page! The fact that I really enjoyed The Long Halloween doesn't hurt either. Wonderful journey to find it's way home, congrats!

Very nice!!

Great addition to your collection, Nick!

Wonderful to see Finch's interpretation of Sonja. Would love to see what he'd do with Conan.

Phenomenal page - immediately felt like an awestruck 12 year old again!!  This story arc was my first introduction to Galactus and the Silver Surfer. Congrats, West!

Not very familiar with Weeks' work but that is a great looking cover. Really like his interpretation of Hulk. Congrats!

Love seeing title pages from the early 70's! Thanks for sharing, Marcus!

What a great collection of Finlay's work -- I'm sooo jealous!

Beautiful rendering, great detail! Was soooo close to claiming it but hesitated too long. Nice pickup, congrats!

I remember buying this off the rack - what a wonderful cover, congrats!!

Very impressive scratchboard work!
