I would think, at $225, this won't last long.

Too bad it never saw print, it would have been great to see it in color

thanks for the kind words all.

the piece has been sold! Thanks all for your interest. All other parties have been contacted.

yes, it would have been nice to have had it printed in color, but alas, it was not to be. Like a hell of a lot of things in the comic world.

you were right. i thought that by coming here it was better than going on ebay since this way someone who really loved it could have it.

george -

that was a commission piece that i did back in 2005 that clearly has had a bad experience with a fold! Yikes! Poor original art.

I dont' recall who I did the piece for unfortunately. I certainly didn't send it folded up!

Tried to make it look similar to the issue (#36) that i did over Gulacy, and not the yvel guichet version later.

Of course, 4 years later i think that i could do a much better one, but then no artist likes their old work and i'm no different.

Anything else that i can add?

Thanks for the info! I've had it on my watch list for a while but I always enjoy knowing the history behind a piece. It makes it that much more special.

yeah, personally, if anyone wanted a Shadowman or eternal Warrior, I'd rather they contact me so that I can do a good new one, but i'm glad that i made the watch list!

That mask over-lay is fabulous.

I love everything about that. Someone got a great piece.
