I had this one pegged as a winner since it first hit the catalog, yes, he has been around for a while, but you do not see many of his Spawn covers, or any other covers hitting like this. His card sets were cult classic not best seller, for sure, but even seasoned pro’s need their breakout moment, and this was it for Spears.

Middleton was around for a while before Batgirl 23 put him on another level with fans.

His first print of Bridezilla from Kickstarter sold 90 copies plus addons and extra printed to sell on his website. Who knows how many of those he has stashed.

I ordered 2 off his website before the Keenspot blew up. He has sold out on the website now

That’s a much nicer cover since it doesn’t have the obtrusive Trade Dress and Keenspot header. I hate that Keenspot black bar header.

The Keenspot logo is definitely a bit much.

The beauty 1 is getting cleaned out on ebay after casting news (Ashton Kutcher). Sold out on Midtown and MCS. Can still be found for cheap.

Beauty has long been a favorite series. Didn’t see casting news today though, haven’t looked since it was a very weird day for me.
I was going to say it premiered in Pilot Season!! I have that too.

Actually might be wise to wait a little. Supplies are still depleting with a ton of sales. Wait for it to hit the hot list this week imo.

The interior art is excellent. Guess people better start hunting his 1st covers in Spawn. $125 is kinda high tho.
