Thanks to Aaron (Brazoo) I fixed the problem. It would have been years before I would figure out how to fix the posting issues. Thanks.

Saw it the other day. Some very nice pieces. Can't wait to see the rest that have been scanned. You are right though...scanning and then uploading takes time. I scanned 7 pages last night. Now to re-size and then upload. I have to say the best thing about scanning for me is that I have a scanner big enough to handle 12 X 18. It's an old AGFA that we used to use in printing. Only machine that it hooks up to is my 1st computer...an old gateway. Takes a while but it does the job. Now scanning on the smaller scanners and piecing 2 halves together would be a real PITA.Comment

If anyone is interested these are the last 7 scans I did last night and just finished putting up on the comic art fan site:

I just have to post these 2 because it is a series that have to say is the best comic series I've read in 36 years of reading comics:
It is the series I tell anyone that is getting into comics or has read comics for a while and is looking for a great read. Ostrander and Mandrake's The Spectre series is THE one to read. Hopefully I will get to meet Tom Mandrake in August at the Connecticut Comic Con and tell him how great the series is. Thanks for putting up with this fanboys love of comics and comic art.Comment

Very nice. The Jurgens JLA page is just killer. Check Patton JLA page is just as nice. Dazzler and The Beast (Beauty and The Beast) reminds me that I have to find a Perlin and Demulder Defenders page. Not a fan of the 6 fingered hand issues. So anything post those will be alright. I see them on Ebay every so often but they are either more filler than characters or just not quite right. What did Adams charge for the sketch cover if you don't mind my asking?Comment

Yeah, I got to him early I guess. Dinged me $100 but I hear that for covers like that, especially if the CGC crew is there to authenticate the sketch it's a lot more. Heard the figure $250 being thrown about at Toronto Comic on this year. Maybe I got a break cause it was for me and not resale?Comment

This is one of my favorite threads. I don't have tons of original art, but I keep meaning to take some pics of some sketches and drawings I do have so I can contribute.
I just got this piece in the mail today, so I took a quick snapshot. It's a Jack Davis strip that was published in MAD Magazine in 1981. I think he's one of the greatest comic artists of all time, so I'm really excited to have this.

That's fantastic! It's pretty wild how many different styles of characters she's doing just on that one page. That butler dude in the bottom left panel looks like wandered in from a MAD comic to me for sure. Very cool piece.Comment

Love Mad magazine. Nice Davis piece. Mort Drucker used to live on the north shore of Long Island back in the late 90's early 2000's. Think he still does. When I was in printing back then we did a few 4 color proofs for him. Wish I would have gotten the chance to deliver the finished product to him. I would have volunteered to go on the road that day
Oh man - meeting Drucker like that would have been great!Comment

These are celebrating there 32nd Birthday tomorrow. Walt drew these for me whilst promoting X-Men/Titans at my friends comic store. It was the first of 3 signings my friend would have Walt out for:
I can't believe it's been 32 years. The speed and accuracy that Walt drew these with was absolutely AMAZING. Made me a fan for life. I've said it before...Walt is the most genuine and nicest people you will ever meet. Best thing is that he still as much a fan as he is an artist in the comic industry.Comment
