Here are a few quick scans of some from the last batch ordered. I have around 14 pages of Michonne goodness now plus 3 more on order. I may need to eventually start a page over at CAF for my stuff.

Issue #92 Page #6



Issue #79 Page #20



Issue #63 Page #19



Issue #93 Page #19



I just bought a new scanner/printer today that is big enough to scan these in so I am gonna set that up and hopefully scan the rest in later tonight to post them. I am sick of these iPhone pics.

The Walking Dead #19 cover is now on ComicLink. The asking price? $50,000.

That's probably higher than the marketplace can bear in my opinion.

I can think of a lot better investments to spend $50,000 on than that cover.

But it is one of a kind, and if someone has the "gotta have it" passion, and there's two people with that same intense drive, "let the bidding war begin!"

To me, it's sort of like when Todd McFarlane bought the Mark McGwire then historic record breaking home run baseball... a one of a kind item... an item at the pinnacle of it's popularity... and he paid the peak of the value, which after interest died down with both the fact that McGwire isn't a likely going to the Baseball HOF due to being part of the 'roid era, and the record was subsequently broken by both Sosa and Bonds...

I see The Walking Dead #19 being a good book, and the art a good piece. I don't see much room for growth in value on the upside, and I see tremendous risk on the downside of the value going down if let's say the TV show is canceled, or the character in the comic, Kirkman decides to kill off.

There's been original art featuring the 1st Appearances of other comic book characters that have sold recently in the last 5 or so years for far less who are mainstays such as Power Girl, Black Cat, Deadpool, Gambit, etc. - - So, I'm not sure she's worthy of that price tag as an investment. I think the cover is worth more like $10k (maybe up to $15k), figuring most Walking Dead covers are worth about $2-3k, any especially nice covers are worth $5-8k, and this is a 1st apperance. Plus, I generally value comic art at 100x what the comic book is valued at, so a $150 comic book's original art is $15,000. That's a general guide more than a rule. So, for those $2 books, a value of $200 per page is about right sometimes (but in other cases worth only $40).

As a purchase for passion, then if that's the sole reason and motivator, I can't disagree with what anyone wants to pay, and it is a nice cover artistically and the character is good.

I think any Tony Moore cover is worth much more than 2-3k. Most interior pages are 2-3k.
