Knowing Marvel this is how they would release it as a cover. Zoom in and cut out the rest of the drawing.
Can I ask how did you get on his list? Seems next to impossible.

Ya, I know the struggle. He took a list ahead of NYCC, although mine was from a virtual con held during the height of the pandemic that I arranged to be picked up at NYCC. Here is a shot that Arthur sent of the NYCC commissions + other commissions

As you can see from my post of the NYCC commissions, he does them at bust or at full figure levels. Many of my friendsâ commissions that have been turned into covers were as drawn rather than cut by Marvel. If Marvel does not like the commission as is, they usually skip it rather than cut it.
Those Art Adams sketches are epic
Thatâs more than $40k worth of commissions right there!

Joe Jusko / FPG just had a kickstarter at 9 p.m. where for a $2500 pledge, you get a recreation homage of 1 of the original 90âs Marvel Masterpiece 104 painted card set by Joe Jusko.
I purchased one. Sold out in about 45 minutes.
$2500 is clearly some serious $$$ but where is one getting a Jusko color painting of a Marvel character.

What is the size of the recreation?

I think theyâre 5 x 8? Maybe 6 x 9?
(Same size as his original 1990âs paintings)
Wow. Impressive that it sold out so quickly!

Yea - if you happen to hit on one of the biggies (Spider-Man, Doom, Galactus, Thanos, etcâŠ); essentially anyone other than Night Thrasher, Quasar, or Northstar; youâve hit a nice chunk over the 2500 sales price.
The OA dealers know what theyâre buying and its resale value.
Blank cover commissioned sketches i got done at RI Comic Con. Araña was done by Ian Chase Nichols and Stargirl was by Bill Walko. Both really great guys and was a lot of fun to talk to

I was literally on the Walt Simonson line at Baltimore Comicon watching Anthony buy up all these Simonson sketches from SpiderWebArt; whose booth was physically located right near Walt/Louise booth.
I shall say no more.

If anyone wants a Simonson original prelim for a better price; go directly to SpiderWebArt. Walt works directly with them and only them. Theyâre sold out now, but they re-stock with Simonson prelims fairly regularly

If you are looking to buy from Anthony, itâs usually fairly easy to negotiate a 10-15% discount, particularly if the pieces have been up for a while.
