This piece is also auctioned. This is the description from the auction:
"John Byrne Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch #2 Cover Original Art
(Charlton, 1975). John Byrne's first professional cover was also the first
comic this popular artist illustrated in full (he had backup features see
print previously). His comment on this issue: "That was my first whole
book... and I just said, "Okay, if this is going to be it, then I'm going to be
the Carl Barks of Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch." This piece has an
image area of 10" x 15". The title logo is on an acetate overlay, and the
art is in Excellent condition. A copy of the comic book is included in this
lot."
You'll also find a jumbo size scan in the auction here:
Wheelie #2 auction.

BTW, Is there any problem for linking Heritage auctions? I do it mainly for
the impressive scans, but I don't get any comission for it.

My only problem is that you're potentially getting more people bidding on something I might want to bid on -- driving the price up.
If they don't know about HA -- it's better for my pocket (as a buyer)

yeah -- just post the image. If it's an auction you have a stake in -- post it over in the "selling" section - that's where most folks look for that stuff.
GREAT images you post here, though. I love it. Whenever I see your name pop up I know there's a cool picture with it.

I'll follow your advice, although I'm not bidding on these auctions. It's stuff
too way expensive, and I have other priorities, although as you can imagine,
I'd love to own a X-Men panel page of JB classic run. But with 5k, you can
buy Sienkiewicz's New Mutants full painting covers...
I'm glad you enjoy the images! I love to dive in CAF galleries and in auctions
looking for rarities and great pieces. In fact, I have a blog semifocused on
this. Press the link at the bottom of this post to see it.
