Hello,
just to confirm that this piece hasn't been published.

Hi Giorgio, thanks for stopping by to let me know! It certainly feels like it could make a gorgeous Heavy Metal or science fiction book cover. Anyway, love your work and I'm thrilled to have such a nice piece. Your skills are amazing, sir!

There's some staining on the face, maybe they had a patch to make him look more like Cain at one point.

That's probably the case, the guy who traded it with me seems to think so too. Well, the comics' world loss is certainly my gain, is this is both a fascinating and beautiful splash!

As Popeye would say, "That is a page, what am a page!" A Sadly unused Frank Thorne masterpiece.

Congrats on owning this beauty.

Thanks Steven! It's one of my favourites, framed and on display for me to marvel at every day! Frank knocked it out of the park with this beauty, and while it may not have been given it's rightful audience in print, it's gone to a very admiring owner.

I agree completely with that assessment of the art. Herb makes it an unmistakably Hulk page, and those magazines had such amazing inkers too. Lovely page.

Thanks Paul! I have such a soft spot for the old Marvel B & W mags of this period - the calibre of the inking was often what elevated the art too. Love the fact that you can see the bold chunky design of Trimpe in the characters, vastly enhanced by Alcala's unmatchable texturing and solid, weighty blacks and half-tones. Rampaging Hulk was remarkable in some of it's unlikely artistic pairings, and they usually worked!

That is a wonderful acquisition for your collection! Amazing! Those cleverly placed solid black regions really make the page, and enable the almost psychedelic effect of light through the car window in the fourth panel to convey movement and urgency. Masterful.

Your eye is astute and discerning as ever, sir! And this is indeed an amazing addition to my humble collection. One of my favourites.

While much less known than American Flagg! or the Shadow, Time2 is one of Howard's best work and has a lot of his signature style on full display.  Howard will also tell you that he considers it his best work.  This is a great page.  Nice that you snagged a page with Raul also!

I'm definitely seeing a lot of top-tier Chaykin served up in smokin' hot portions on this page! Some great work here and Raul definitely sealed the deal!

Nice pencil sketch. Brunner frames this nicely to emphasize Hulk's bulk and power.

Thanks Paul! Bang on - love the way Bruner frames this pose to make old Greenskin practically burst out of the page! I can't recall if Frank ever drew Hulk for the printed page, but am SO pleased to have this fine example of his take on my favourite fictional powerhouse!

Great Harlem Heroes page! It really channels the whole "Ally's Tartan Army' mood from the time. Really explosive scenes - congrats!

Merci beaucoup, Paul! Yep, it's a fun page and certainly captures that edgy, explosive energy of early 200AD capers! Gibbons has always been a brilliant and passionate visual storyteller - the detail in his early work especially, when the artwork had to stand on it's own two feet without colour, is phenomenal.

A great composition. The narrower panels at the bottom accentuate the explosion in the wider top tier, but also make the figure of the surgeon fill the lower part of the page. Lovely, clean lines too. Nice page!

It's a real beaut, isn't it? Always good to have your keen, insightful eye enjoy my humble collection. Your observations are so spot on!

Well researched mythology and well designed origin page by Sherman to present Absolute Wonder Woman as a person raised in hell and surrounded by monsters. 

Thanks Marcus! My wife did the research, she's a classicist who knows her stuff. So seeing the piggie made her think this is referring to the story of Odysseus - making the mythological references all the richer. And I agree, Sherman's page designs for WW are a knockout. 

 

I'd also add that not only do we see Diana as raised in Hell (when she was sent there by cruel & fearful gods as a baby to die!), she tames it and makes it her home through her fearlessness, while civilizing and making the monsters fall in love with her huge, kind heart. A lesson and role model for us all...

Amazing! BWS is such a Master - the design, the linework, the shadows...sublime. You've done very, very well to pick this beauty up. It's also so much nicer to buy direct from the artist, especially if you either meet them or have a dialogue with them. Barry is one of the greats!

Gorgeous panel page from the Frank Miller/Dave Gibbons classic, "Give Me Liberty" featuring Martha Washington. The page features multiple scenes from the dystopian graphic novel. Beautiful art by Dave Gibbons and some of Frank Miller's best writing. Fabulous pick-up, congrats!

Thanks for the respect to this great page from an epic graphic novel, Bill! I absolutely agree regarding this being some of Frank Miller's best writing, too. Prime Gibbons + prime Miller = one heck of a ride and a feast for the eyes!

WOWWW!! Hitch does one of the most savage Hulk renditions ever! Love his work on Hulk in The Ultimates (and boy was I stoked when I finally nabbed one of his stunning Hulk DPSs from the series) and he knocks it right out of the park here too. Great choice, and another example of glorious and worthy display in the framing. 

Got to say, Hulk Ultimate Destruction was one great game too. I've got some of the Hitch's Hulkbuster designs from it and they are amazing. Hitch is an all-rounder!

Beautiful page from an important, landmark, and slightly overlooked classic! Congratulations...and maybe I'll be coming to you after you've enjoyed it for a year or two... ;)

Thank you Ken! Loving your collection! And I couldn't agree more (which is why I fell for this page and the spot and had to have it) - Give Me Liberty is indeed a landmark work, perhaps somewhat overlooked but a real classic. And I feel it's spirit of resistance and heroism in the face of tyranny & cruelty is more relevant than ever. Also a damn good read!
