A number of years ago one of my local comic shops had it up on the wall.
The owner had won it off ebay cheap (you dont want to know). I got to see it
up close, it is very large. Nice piece by JB, too bad part of it was done in
marker. I am not sure if its behind UV glass and even if it is the marker will
continue to fade so keep it in a dark room. Congrats.

I've had my eye on the Kitty Pryde piece for a long time and I was happy to finally arrive at a deal with the seller that worked for both of us.

The art has actually aged well and the only part of the inks that show signs of fading are the curls of Kitty's hair and the "No Way!!!" in the speech bubble.

I'm honestly not sure where I'm going to put a piece of this size. Right now it's leaned against the wall in my home office, but that can't last for long.

Here's another recent arrival from Al Milgrom, who did a great recreation to the cover of Iron First #14, which is arguably his most well known piece of work.

Thanks again to JB for unveiling that Al Milgrom was actually the cover artist for Iron Fist #14, which was long thought to have been done by Dave Cockrum.

I've always loved Al's caricature of himself :)

Me too!  His Editori-Al persona is a fond reminder to me of my personal Golden Age of comics in the 80s, so I asked him to draw himself in lieu of the bar code box.

Does this mean that Al Milgrom is no longer sporting a moustache?

Bill, hands down this is your best one yet.  And I'll fess up.  I don't recognize the guy curled up in the middle.

Thanos, you just keep getting better and better.  I may have to get in line behind Bill to get something.  The Golden Eagle and Talisman really stand out.

congrats to you both
