I'd have to agree with Ferran, Heritage rocks.... Most of the stuff on there is pretty much full sized. I've been able to print 11x17 images off my inkjet...
They're good enough to see pencil lines, washed out ink... etc.... anybody here who hasn't looked at it... prepare to spend about 3-4 DAYS going through it!!!

William Roberge:
Nathan can you post the original to the Galactus? Nice collection you've got there.

Thanks! Everything is framed....maybe I can take some pictures in the next few weeks of my entire collection (about 20 pieces) and post them somewhere on this site. I mostly collect JB covers and splash pages. I am really picky about the pieces I buy -- that's why I can't afford to buy them any more! The good stuff is soo expensive! I love the JB commissions -- that's how I roll now :)
Here's a few more I own:

I'm looking forward to see your pics!
BTW, once they're taken, to start your own CAF gallery is very easy...

Nathan, how do I become your beneficiary? I love your AF art (as well as the rest, but I'm not greedy).

It's up on the gallery site, not very big and didn't look like a great scan (sorry to whomever scanned it, just my opinion) in the "seldom seen" section. First time I ever saw it was today.

Q for JB, I believe you have mentioned that you had intended to add copy to that cover of Alpha Flight, but I can't recall if you told us what you had wanted it to be. You hinted in the reading club thread I believe, but could you please tell us here ? (again?) Pleasethanks!

Ferran,
That particular cover does seem to lend itself well to possible copy text, huh? I was wondering, do you, or anyone else, know what caused the tree and Wiacek's signature to oxidize(?) into a reddish color?

Speaking as "anyone else", it looks like that tree was inked with a non-
permanent marker. Why that and nothing else --- you'd have to ask Bob.
As to the copy, it was supposed to go:
LIL: We've WON! ALPHA FLIGHT is DEFEATED!
FLASHBACK: Thanks to HIM!
Based on that smear of glue above their heads, looks like the copy might
have been there at one point, and was removed. Possibly en route to
the printers it fell off. Or perhaps, Shooter realized the cover would not
work as well without the copy, so ordered it off.
