I've never known anyone to own the original art to a subscription ad before! Very cool!

I was psyched when the opportunity to get George Perez to add to the Ben Grimm's Poker Game Gallery was presented to me. I jumped on it and George's take on Ben is both classic and stunning. The details are awesome! Thanks to Ari for making this possible and picking this up for me!

Jose's use of panels as well as the choices that he made in breaking the borders of them brings the mood and action to a level above so many other artists. Pages 6 and 7 of Jonah Hex #4 bring the total to 8 pages that I possess of this issue. This has become a fun hunt.

DC Comics Presents #2, page 9 is pure Bronze Age DC. A fun page that contains much of the guts of the two issue story, but left Jose with little he could do visually, yet he leaves us with quite a bit. I love the look of this piece.

This was an unexpected surprise enclosed to greet us as Tammy opened the Fed Ex package. I am not going to post this in my CAF gallery, but thought that you guys would appreciate it. I don't expect that we will see either the attire or Jonah sporting a smile in a published page any time soon.

Yet another very unexpected gift. This piece makes me sad that Lee doesn't do more ongoing work for Marvel. He is currently working on something that looks to be amazing.

Fred J. Chamberlain, if you allow me to be on close terms I think you are a lucky devil by owning such beautiful pieces by the awesomely talented Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez one of my top favorite artists ever. Jose's art had a tremendous influence on me as a child ( as John Byrne art also had by the same time). Jose's art pieces of DC COMICS 1982 STYLE GUIDE were every where to be found from stationary to print ads, to find a Jose's art piece like that by then was like finding a hidden treasure. I compare Jose's art to Alex Raymond ( possibly my top favorite artist of all time) as he is for me the Alex Raymond of our time.
Brian Peck , your Judgement Day GN page 42 by John Buscema is simply amazing. It's one of my favorite Graphic Novels and one of my favorite John Buscema works as he is one of my favorite artists. The Big John Buscema.
Lee Weeks is another great one that I love very much, and that is a great piece. He is not at MARVEL? I can't wait to see what he going to do next.

That Lee Weeks Captain America is very reminiscent of John Buscema. Which is to say: very nice!
