I miss the goth days in the 90s, when The Crow, The Cure, and Neil Gaiman’s Death reigned. The subculture thankfully has lived on — check out the Cat Club in SF for evidence. And once in a while, it gains

Steem prices may be taking a beating along with cryptocurrencies in general, but Steem Fam, our show must go on! Here’s my contribution today to posting against the tides... Venom keys. Following an early

Time enough for a quick write-up, wanted to share this li’l beauty. I usually don’t go for trading card sketch art; well, when adding a name like Sienkiewicz to the collection, beggars can’t be choosers!

Per my angsty “Failing Mission Artgerm” post from a few weeks back ( I’ve been hell-bent on acquiring my first OA by this modern master. Against all odds. Yesterday, through a miracle of timing (and having

I love comicartfans.com. Really really love it. Because I just picked up my first TODD MCFARLANE ORIGINAL ART page through the site, with Cyclops and Jean Grey and Iceman in X-Factor uniform... for a 2k+

The LOFT store in Shibuya has some treats. Comic book passport covers licensed by Marvel Japan?! Hulk got tired of lifting and went for a perm. Gotta love the “MADBOMB” threat on the Cap cover. Nothing

I’m currently traveling and unable to post regularly, but still doing my best to keep up with my Steem friends’ posts! Rest assured all is well, and I miss everyone dearly — that’s the pull of our community.

In the comic book OA world, super-realistic artists get their fair share of love. Frazetta and Dell’Otto come to mind. Then there’s another level of realism in the fantasy genre — rendered by such legends

Family lines are a fun (and inescapable -- much like parenting) part of the comics universe. The children of superheroes typically tend to reveal powers themselves, sometimes magnitudes more potent than

If Amazing Fantasy #15 (1st app. of Spider-Man) was the comic that launched a thousand ships, X-Men #1 was the book that had something for everyone. Optic blasts and magnetic force fields, check. The return

Ever wondered which comic artists from the past and present would rise to the top if there were a showdown that accounted for their best works, their output, and overall fandom? Courtesy of the CAF website

Many collectors of comic book original art in general, and Stanley “Artgerm” Lau fans in particular, share a common ritual. It goes like this: Artgerm posts a sketch he drew up (effortlessly as always)

Buying collections can be a whole lot of fun in any collectibles hobby. A few years ago I picked up a Magic: The Gathering collection numbering thousands of cards for a cool 50 bucks and made that back

For ages, my mission was to find Venom OA drawn by Mark Bagley, the artist for Venom’s first-ever solo series Lethal Protector (on which the upcoming movie is partly based). Not a Venom page without Venom.

Judging from my phone browser’s “Frequently Visited” list, besides work-related sites, I visit most often (1) Steemit and (2) ComicArtFans.com. Twitter, Facebook, etc. visits are way down. So what is this

When I first laid eyes on this the day after Free Comic Book Day, my first thought was — huhwha? Millie, Chili, Patsy Walker... mainstays from the Golden Age of comics... in a team-up with Iron Man (plus

New original art pickup just in! Pretty excited about this one, as the All-New Wolverine series (and X-23 in general) was what got me back into Modern comics a few years ago. She's a very compelling character

I’m spending enough time on Steemit that I’m ready to expand my Follow list. If you could recommend via comment some of your favorite Steemians to follow, I’d very much appreciate it! I’m pretty good with

Happy Saturday, fellow Steemit adventurers! This post will be heavy on pics. In my spare time I’ve been exploring old bookstores... The Last Bookstore in LA is something special. Ancient stinky books.

Moonie is a crazy ass f*ck. There are comics — usually crossovers— where he’s all well-mannered and heroic, does and says the right things (if a bit gruffly), hardly brags about his extreme wealth, and
