Welcome to the madness Josh! I am a huge fan of your work and am stoked you are here! This piece is stunning. I love how you varied the blues in each of the costumes. Tricky with two characters SO close in color scheme.

Oh wow—this absolutely radiates power. The color palette is unreal, that molten-sun background makes her feel mythic, and the brushwork has so much confidence and motion. That upward flow of the hair and flame is just gorgeous, and the pose sells pure command. Stunning piece from top to bottom—an absolute showstopper. 🔥

Even knowing someone else landed it, this one deserves major applause. What a beautiful cover—so much tenderness and personality in just a few lines. The expressions, the body language, the quiet moment… it all feels effortless and sincere. An absolutely lovely piece with so much soul and grace. Amy Reeder at her best.

What a killer take on Dark Phoenix—those glowing eyes and the framing of the hands feel hypnotic. The restrained palette makes the heat underneath even more unsettling. McKone absolutely nailed the menace and control in the same breath.

Absolutely stunning. The motion in the flames, the glow cutting across her costume, and that wind-swept hair all pull you straight into the moment. The color work is unreal—those warm yellows and reds against the cooler blues make the whole piece vibrate with energy. Ellery Santos crushed this.

Agreed! Marcus' comments are always positive, welcomed, and quite often poetic. I really appreciate each and every one of his comments. Thanks for making CAF an even better place Marcus!

Well said, Brian—that’s exactly it. Always thoughtful, always generous, and never phoned in.

CAF’s better for people like Marcus who take the time to lift others up.

Thank you Mike!  I get enough attention good or bad for what I do.  I hope what I do inspires you to explore more of this website and leave a few comments for others too!  

That’s what makes it special, Marcus—your comments give the place real energy.

And you’re right… you’ve absolutely nudged me into engaging more with other collectors too. Ripple effect in action. Appreciate you.

Glad you were able to get something from him at the show.  I was there on Friday and it was dead.  But I heard that Sat and Sun were pretty good crowds.

The crowds were good for celeb autographs, but the artists were not slammed like they normally are. It was perfect.
