Congratulations on acquiring this page! Every panel is a work of fine art. I love the slim panel of Matt asking, "But why?" We've seen that look from Matt many times over the years. Great, you also get Natasha in a panel on that page as well. So classic and nostalgic and so much fun to own a piece of comic book history. Thanks for going over the panels and comparing your page to the printed page. I think the original looks so much better!
Thank you! The "But--why?!" panel is awesome. I love the close up perspective on Matt's face and the shading detail as well in that panel. I'm glad you enjoyed the video! ☺
absolutely brilliant piece! I like to collect points in comic history but you’re out here collecting ACTUAL comic history. Love your passion for these pieces, the smile and reaction show it all! Big congrats my friend!
Thank you, Brandon! It's amazing to own the original art by some of the greatest artists and creators in comics. The significance goes beyond the art itself and I greatly appreciate the history and people behind it.
Great piece of art gene Colans work is legendary especially his run on tomb of Dracula love it I'm so happy for you keep up the great work 😊
Thank you so much! I've started looking at Tomb of Dracula pages a lot more these days. They are gorgeous! 😉
Great pickup. I love how it looked like you were crawlig inside of the box after you hid that DD page from yourself.
Thank you, Scott! Now that you mention it, it does look like I'm climbing into the box. Too funny. 😂
What an excellent page! Gene was an amazing artist and an even more amazing person. This is as good as any of the pages with Daredevil in costume, especially with that excellent panel with Natasha in it. As always, your passion and enthusiasm shine forth. Long may it continue.
Thank you for your kind words, CAB! I'm glad you liked the video. My passion for comics and art has never been stronger. 😉
What a CLASSIC 7 Panel Banger! Colan DD is truly a Fantastic Grab Karen. I DO remember you eyeballing that on the preview Vid. Colan's true trait was EXCELLING at storytelling, action or dialogue. Chan's inks defined Gene's lush pencils well. I agree with the colors...esp losing the 6th panels foliage. CONGRATS! ,,,and hey, anyone can draw...
Thank you, CJDesign! I couldn't have said it any better. I wish I had used "7 Panel Banger" in the video. 😂
Another fantastic video Karen! That last panel of her on the coach is just beautiful.
Thanks, Lance! The last panel was one of the main reasons why I decided to buy the page. 😁
hello miss Karen nice FF t-shirt. really nice DD Colon page. and Ernie Chan always adds extra spice to any work.
Thanks, MrRedjack! I love that shirt and how Skottie Young draws the FF. I totally agree with you, the Colan/Chan combination is awesome. 😁
Hey Karen! Congratulations on this latest acquisition! I get the desire to have the main hero in costume on the page, but unlike most collectors, I love that you appreciate the storytelling and imagery on pages without the hero in costume enough to still buy them! You're definitely in the minority on that front. The sequential storytelling in the first five panels demonstrates such beautiful camera movement by Colan, like a great film director doing his thing. The cut to the outside of the building and pointing the camera to the brightly lit interior is so gorgeous, as juxtaposed with the sheer blacks of the building's facade. The shrubbery adds to the fine attention to detail that is present in ever other panel as well. That Natasha money shot to end the page is pretty amazing, too. The attention to detail, such as all the acoutrements on the ceiling and hanging on walls reminds me of Leonard Starr's work on Mary Perkins, On Stage (my favourite newspaper strip). It's that attention to detail that really gives the make believe world a three dimensional solidity and brings the art to life. Oh, this time I saw "That's what she said." coming from a mile away! Funny outtakes, as always. Nice musical accompaniment and smooth editing as usual. All in all, another great job! 👍 🤓
Thank you so much, Rubén! I need to hire you to do the commentary on the panel-by-panel sequences in my next OA unboxing video. 😂👍
@@KarensPages I'm not a writer, and besides, you already do such a nice job all on your own. 😉
It seems like you're a huge Daredevil fan as I am. Speaking on the late Ernie Chan, RIP. I remember years ago friending Mr. Chan on Facebook, we used to message back and forth I would praise him on his early work on Conan the Barbarian, then later his work on the Incredible Hulk, up until he passed on. A true gentleman in every sense of the word.
Yes, I'm a huge Daredevil fan. He's my favorite character. Thanks for sharing your story. It sounds like Ernie Chan was a pretty awesome guy. 👍
Such a beautiful page of original art! Congratulations!!! I love the way the perspective changes from the first panel to the second. Such control of the dynamics from what is otherwise a very mundane office scene.
Thank you so much! I'm all about mundane office scenes. 😉😂 In all seriousness, I know exactly what you mean about the perspective changes on this page -- they make the scene so much better!
The green and orange suits in that one panel just screams the 70’s. Nice Colan page!
Great point about the colors in the 70's. Thank you! 😁
Nice DD page, congrats! And you got it at a price that you wanted to pay, even better.
Thank you! I HAD to buy it at that price. 😂👍
Hi Karen! I was wondering what was in the plastic bag when you were unboxing your Jack Kirby masterpiece. That is AWESOME! Gene Colan was the essential Daredevil artist. Keep up the good work with your collection. I hope to see your Kirby poster in a frame in the next video. Happy Labor Day!
Steven Ronero
Thank you, Steven! I hope you had a good Labor Day, too. I don't know if I'll have the Kirby art framed by the next video, but I'm working on it! 😂
My feeling is that Gene Colan is one of those artists that tends to be put in a tier below Buscema and Romita Sr., but I think his work is every bit as good, if not better at times. Such great storytelling and different view perspectives. And what a great panel with Natasha! You had quite the auction success!
Thank you so much for your comment! I love both Buscema and Romita Sr., too, but there is something so amazing about Gene Colan, especially when he is paired with a great inker. 😉
Ha! You did get that page! It is absolutely beautiful, that’s for sure! The detail and storytelling with the panels, wow. Congratulations!! Don’t stop there though, if you want to get another Gene Colan page with DD in costume, wait for one inked by Tom Palmer. Same era, when DD was with the Widow in San Francisco. Hey, and don’t knock the coloring on the published version, after all it was the early 70’s!
Thank you so much! A Colan/Palmer page is an excellent suggestion and one that I always look out for. I also like Syd Shores' inks on Colan's pencils. I don't mean to knock the coloring on the published version. When I learned more about the process that went into coloring the old school comics, I definitely appreciated the final product more. 😉
Great page! Especially love the bottom tier!
Thank you, Rick! Those are my favorite panels, too! 😉
sweet page! Love the Chan inks - not a huge fan of how that page was colored either - as usual the B&W is the preferred way to look at it for me and my tastes. Awesome bonus / pt 2 page to the last unboxing, although it's a lot more than a bonus ha. Waiting to look at it must've been pretty tough!! Congrats on getting that example and Thanks for sharing Karen!
Thank you so much, Kavi! I feel like I've leveled up as a collector with these two pieces from grail artists. 👍😉
Congrats. That is sweet piece of art!!
Thank you so much! 😁
@@KarensPages yw 👊 🤘
HI Karen, Congrats on latest acquisition! I would assume that Daredevil is one of your favourite characters! Love your enthusiasm!
G'day, David! Thank you! Glad you liked the video. Daredevil is indeed my favorite character (and Thor). 👍
@@KarensPages I too very much have Daredevil as one of my favourite characters especially drawn by Frank Miller and Joe Quesada. If you would like check out my Comic Art Fans gallery under Daredevildavid
Regards David
Wow! That’s nice. What a great addition. By the way, I just noticed you have that ASM33 on the shelf. So jealous! That’s in my list for top Spidey covers and missing from my collection! Congrats again on the art!
Thank you so much! ASM #33 is an all-time classic and one of my favorite Spidey comics. I hope you are able to pick one up someday. The prices have come down since I bought that comic. 😉
I liked Ernie Chan on (if I recall?) early Marvel Two-in-One. I used to love seeing The Thing meeting other characters.
Love your little jokes 😁
Wow, you really ARE watching all of my videos, Jeff! 😂👍
1st Love the shirt so cool! This piece is absolutely amazing! The outtakes were hilarious.
Thank you, Mr. Akins! Glad you liked the art and the outtakes! 😉
Congratulations!!! Amazing piece of comic history!!! Stunningly drawn and inked!!!
Thank you so much! It really is a great piece! ☺
Very cool. I wish I had more original art in my collection.
Thanks, Allan. Does that mean you have some original art in your collection? It's never too late to add more. 😉
@@KarensPagesI have some but not much.
You communicated in part I that prior to a certain point in your collection carrier you weren't interested in panel pages. I'm so thrilled that you've changed your perspective on panel art. There is something so much more satisfying about a page of superior sequential storytelling. Congratulations on an epic addition to the collection. Love the last two panels, the slightly skewed panel shot and then that last panel..... The way her dress folds and drapes on her body and the details of the couch and rendering of different materials. Fabulous pick up
Thank you so much, Steve! I only wish I had gotten into panel pages MUCH sooner! I love the way the story is told through the art on great panel pages. Looking back, I probably passed on so many great pages over the years because I had tunnel vision for pinups and commissions. I wish I had those collecting years back...especially the prices from 10 years ago. LOL. I'm glad you liked the video and the original art. 😊
very nice piece, my friend.
Thank you, my friend. 😁
Wow! - What a beautiful piece! Congrats! 😊
That's what she said- Lol
Thank you so much, Bigby! 👍
@@bigbymcflythecomicguy 😂
Great piece! Love the video but my eyes are drawn to your Batman Adventures 12. I told myself to get one this year and I have yet to find one at the right price.
Thank you! I tracked prices for BA 12 for about a year before I found that one. Keep searching, you will find one at the right price. It definitely helped to get one in a CBCS case. 👍
Wow, very very nice. And right from one of your sweet spots!
Love all the the angles Colan uses.
I think you can master lettering!
Thank you, Damian! I thought you might like this one. 👍😉
@@sleepyreader666 I totally agree!
@@sleepyreader666 Maybe...😂
Very cool piece!
Thank you!😁
yayyyyyyy
👏👏👏...and no safe spaces needed! 😂
I think ive found my new favorite space on RUclips....
Wow, thank you for the huge compliment! I'm so glad you are enjoying my videos! 😊
You've just experienced what's known by the cabals of the comic art world as "the Gene Colan effect." It's the dizzying, euphoric feeling one gets when they see Gene's original art on Bristol board. Many have not survived the shock to their system, so count yourself lucky!
😂Gene Colan is one of my favorite artists. So, I get the "effect" often. I just replied to another comment of yours. Thank you for watching multiple videos! 👍
I'm going to watch every video you make 😉 I love the joy I see in you when you show love for a piece of art. You are very knowledgeable about the process, and the artists.
👍 👍 for you and the show.
Amazing piece! Congrats!
Thanks, Bry!
@@KarensPages I just sent you a message on IG btw 👍
@@BrysComics I saw it, thank you. I replied to it on IG.
"That's what she said!" Michael Scott has ruined us all, in a good way 😂
Limitless paper, in a paperless world! 🤣
@@KarensPageshaha 😂 ❤
That's what she said...lol
I need to stop talking about size. I walked into that one...again. 😂
@@KarensPages speaking of size I do like a girl with small hands 😂😆
@@dagrcards3075 That's what Mickey Mantle said. 😉
@@KarensPages he was a smart man!!
No Frank Miller Elektra OA page? :D
If we are talking about big boy pages, Wood or Mazzucchelli first. 😉
@@KarensPages FM's story telling is better than both those guys
You Can Draw- It just takes practice. I used to give lessons. 😊
Thanks, Bigby. It's super cool that you used to give lessons. 👍
