Anyone want to split it with me? Hopefully Heritage takes Affirm in 60,000 installments. https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/cover/rob-liefeld-new-mutants-98-cover-original-art-1991-/i/800113171.s?ctrack=564102&type=collectort-1-comic-news-tem080924 ![]() |

Obviously, it’s an important piece. But is it worth more than the two previous records for comic / fantasy art set by Frazetta ($5.4M for Egyptian Queen in 2019, $6M for Dark Kingdom last year)? Guess it depends on the buyer. There’s probably some crazy wealthy Deadpool fan out there somewhere. |

That is shocking to me. I wouldn't even expect that to go for a million. | ||

Maybe Ryan Reynolds will buy it. Personally, I can think of 7.5 million things I'd rather do than buy that artwork. |

Clearly the value is in the subject matter and not the art itself. | ||

Deadpool has transcended comic books to be a pop culture phenomenon so a high asking price isn't out of this world. Plus, those pouty lips, those weird feet, and the pouches! This art should be going for $10M. If I had that kind of Screw You money, I'd consider it. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Jgwalters100 Extremely optimistic asking price. I imagine they are hoping the movie hype makes them rich. I see maybe $2-3 mil to the right buyer (movie star, etc) but no way is that worth the price of a mansion. |

Combine Detective comics #27, Superman #1, Action Comics #1 and AF #15... (if any money left maybe an FF #1) Money better spent... |

I've met Rob, and I liked him. He seemed nice. However, as "art" goes, that piece looks like a sketch on a comic book backing board. If I had 7.5 million, it wouldn't be spent on that. Kudos to whomever colored the cover. |
