 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| Won this page of original art from the St Jude's charity auction at New York Comic Con back in 2012. It has a sheet in the back identifying the piece as Lot # 63. The signature in the bottom left corner is Dexter Vines who most likely inked the page. Aside from the Sam Jackson version of Nick Fury I am not sure who the other characters are. As Samuel Jackson didn't show up in the MCU until the first Iron Man movie in 2008 and I purchased the page in October of 2012 the comic book was published in that window. Any help identifying the title and possibly the issue number of the book this page came from would be greatly appreciated. |

| I’d say the timeline might be a bit earlier than you’re expecting - the Nick Fury in the early 200’s Ultimate Marvel line was actually inspired by Jackson, leading to Jackson being cast for the movies. Looks like Dexter Vines inked a few issues of Ultimate Avengers, so might be one of those. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by soonerjudd81 Thanks, I appreciate it. This was one of my first experiences buying original art. I bid higher on some pieces that went at least twice my highest bid but managed to win three pieces similar to this one. The fellow next to me who was more aggressive won the Walt Simonson, Beta Ray Bill sketch for two grand. |

| If I had to guess it would he in Ultimate Agengers (2009) series #2-6. I don't have those so I can't verify but that's my best guess. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by soonerjudd81 the story behind that was marvel used his likeness without permission (they wanted him because they wanted Ultimate Fury look like the most BA man...and who is that in real life). he had no idea till he saw a copy of an Ultimate comic with Fury on it and was like "did I give them permission and forget?" he wasnt even sure. so he called. they apologized and promised if he didn't sue and let them continue....if they ever did a movie with Nick Fury they'd cast him. Jackson happily accepted. when it came time, he didn't call them to remind them of the promise....they called him basically saying "hey remember that promise we made you" learned this from Jackson's autobiography |

Now that you have BOTH the original art and a color image of the page, might I suggest you do what I do? |
