        It did go for 155 k, i just wish I had started collecting original art a little earlier, I was always focused on the books and didn't pay much attention to the original art. It seems obvious that more people are looking at it now and taking it more seriously.

I still don't understand why more inferior artists like Miller and McFarlane pages get $$$$ for their original art. It's a BEAUTIFUL page...but like so many here, way beyond my means. I hope it went to a person who can appreciate a comic page...and not some little twit in Hollywood that wouldn't know Kirby from a hole in the wall.
            There was a miller batman page that sold about a year ago for almost half a million and it wasn't a GREAT page, it makes me think that the masters are still undervalued even after this decent Kirby silver surfer sale

                I really wanted this page...I have a surfer page by all the other artists (buscema, lim, byrne, etc, etc)... my collection is only "lacking" a Kirby...

                I have seen the 3 or 4 other pages out there in the market (25-34K) and none of them moved me like this one did...so, I took a shot at it...and unfortunately lost

                    Here's a hell of a page! Went for 16,000. Seems worth every penny
