Re: COUNTERFEIT VALIANTS ARE REAL! JJ CONFIRMED!

I can confirm that counterfeit shoeboxes exist (made using a web press!). Fred Pierce worked with the police on a sting that caught the perp who made them but a few leaked out.

Re: Magnus 1 pages on Heritage




I bet pages with robot smashing go for a lot more.


Well, here's one single robot smashing page from issue 2 that sold for more than those two pages together.

Why, oh why, didn't I buy more when the prices were still reasonable?

We never paid the highest page rates in the industry, we were always around the upper end of indie comics :)

That might have been attributed to me but wasn't me I don't think.
Fair enough! Care to hazard a guess on whether the rates have changed?

This is a great piece of art in the context of the history of Valiant comics. Imagine what this cover art would be worth if the “Harbinger” movie is ever made and successful. Even without movies Harada will always be an interesting comic character.
