I have two Frank Cho originals from University 2 between '94-95 framed together in the studio. Purchased both for $50 each in '97 back in my liaison days. One is the "Mind if I smoke" strip and the other is the detailed "Just felt like drawing a chimp" because I'm such a monkey freak!

Thanks, Michael. I found it accidentally on eBay, and spent two days pondering placing a bid, and when I finally did I was absolutely amazed that nobody else bid on it.

The same thing happened to me. Picked up a JR JR Daredevil sketch cheap simply because nobody bid on it. Waited three days and was very surprised when it happened.

I collect Playboy originals...not sure if they fit the definition of "comic strip"...

If you ever stumble across a SOKOL, Nathan, be sure to let me know!!
(I wonder if my ANNIE FANNY counts in this thread?)

I have a Side Glances by Gil Foxx.
I tied him in a race to the picnic table when I was 7 at a park I no longer remember. He sent me the strip (panel) in the mail for my birthday.
I was 8, and I remember looking at the inkwash, and the brushwork.
(I know what to call them now, back then I was just astounded).
He passed a few years ago, miss you GF!

These are very nice strips. I'm a huge Doug Wildey fan, has any of you own or have see an original strip from him?
