Congrats, this is an amazing piece

And so it begins... The cover was not enough for you so you decided to get the splash as well.

Thor collectors around the world, hold on to your pieces, the "Dominator" is coming.

I echo Wills comment, and as a previous owner of this piece, i can confirm it really is better than a lot of the Crisis covers.

 

Major congrats mate, look forward to seeing it and you in NY.

As the previous owner of this splash, i'm glad to see it pop up in a the hands of someone who will cherish it. I always loved the annual team ups in JLA but Jerry had held on tightly to all the pages he had, so there were very few great early ones to chose from, until he passed.

Whilst the art might be considered by some to be lacking, for me the nostagia and historic element, always drove me to look past any failings.

Its a great piece, enjoy.

I did indeed see this in Sean's gallery and wondered how such a gem had escaped you. Glad to see you managed to work out a deal and it's where it belongs, with all the other pages of issue #1.

 

Only 4 pages left, such a great achievement .

Hey "Jay", nice to see you post this after so many years. I remember in 2012 when Becahara acquired this thinking iot would look good in my Byrne collection, but couldnt pull the trigger either. My loss is your gain, and what a great piece it is.

I used to read Look in back in the 70's, great magazine and the art work that it would feature was always top notch.

This piece features two of my favourite 70's TV programs, and is just stunning. Congrats

I love this story arc and David Wenzel doesnt get enought credit for the work he did during these issues. A superb fight page and a one and done example if ever I saw one.

 

That being said it's a panel page, so 🤷...
