I knew I needed this one right away. Sounds like he's got some other cool stuff in the works tho'!MGS wrote:I emailed Adam about that cover, knowing full well that you probably already had it. Sadly, I was right.

Re: Post your new OA in your collection here!
Ya know, I honestly don't know. I tried looking up info on it, and didn't find much. There was something on here about Layton being unhappy with DF, but I couldn't find an article about it. I looked on his website and nada.
Anybody have a link to anything? Or does anyone have the csn that had this as the cover? The most I could really find was that it was marked as "Sold Out" on the DF website which made me think they sold them, but maybe not...I'm actually really curious about why he was mad actually, and I'll probably just ask him at a show if no one really knows/remembers.

Nice additions! I agree with DBS that the Clayton Henry BR piece is especially amazing!

No lithographs were made. If they were, they were never legally sold.sonicdan wrote:Congrats! Killer piece. Was the litho for this ever actually produced? I thought there was an issue at the time

Dynamite solicited this as a lithograph without doing any homework and didn't realize that Gold Key had very little claim to Erica Pierce or Geoff McHenry.
Even the Unity tower in the background appeared in Valiant books that weren't Solar books.
This was made when Dynamite was trying to pretend they had somehow obtained the rights to Valiant things... without obtaining any rights to Valiant things.

(It's still a sweet piece, because it's Bob Layton 2005 at the start of the hints that Valiant was coming back... not dead.)

Really like that Ryan Lee cover. I saw that when he posted it a while back. Nice pick-up.

This is a really cool piece , I remember wanting a copy of that litho so badly back then. I wonder who commissioned this piece from Bob Layton ? Someone from dynamite or Dynamic Forces ?

Re: Post your new OA in your collection here!

Now I'm curious if it truly was a cover for csn. If not no biggie, but if so, Cover!

Also, I am dying to read what Layton said about the situation.
Any knowledge on that?
Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope!

The lithograph was cancelled, but it would have looked like this: http://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog/JUL052821" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I can't remember if Bob ever talked about the situation with Dynamic Forces, but my guess is that he did the piece and got paid. End of story from his side.

Re: Post your new OA in your collection here!
You're the man!
As luck would have it, someone was actually auctioning that csn with a BIN, so I just got a copy. (how random is that?)
I am considering this piece a cover...I mean...It's very cover-y...Whatever, It's a cover.
This makes my first non color Valiant cover ever out of all the OA I've acquired.
