I read about one more recent artist* who did something almost similar. He’d draw a bunch of random splash pages, shuffle them into a “story”, then add the pages in between.

One inker commented at the time that the guy had come up with a way to publish a monthly portfolio.

*not inviting guesses

s previously mentioned, DC originally wanted to charge color prices for OMAC, but I would not let them.

What would the color price in 1991 have been? I see OMAC came in at $3.95, and Generations (for comparison) was $4.95 in 1999.

Side note: this little sidebar got me to dig out my copies, and MAN but the art is cool.

EDITED TO ADD: I also note that despite not having been bagged or boarded or any care given to them - I'm not that kind of collector! - the paper is still a nice, bright white after thirty-five years. Whoever selected the stock did a very, very good job.

I would love all of JB's Charlton work to be in one collection as well as his Rog 2000 and all other pre-Marvel ephemera.

Seven... 

I really want a collection of everything Next Men to be re-issued. I lost most of my copies and completely missed the IDW series.

EDIT: Added a missing space in Mento
