The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

My first two errr three pieces. Alex Ross!

These are pics of my first three pieces. I have been meaning to post them for a while but never got around to it.

First is my Green Lantern Vol. 3 131 by Darryl Banks. It's great because it features my favorite GL characters Sinestro, Hal, and Parallax! I got it for a great price off of ebay and had it framed for my birthday!

Second and third are my pride and joys!! They are my two Alex Ross Sketches for the cover of Earth X: Cap. Both are featured in the Earth X trades. These were my first pieces and they were by my favorite artist!!!

Good Cyclops stuff is hard to find on my budget. Trust me I am looking. And fortunately that issue of GL is in the .25 bin when I went to get another copy so I bought a few. The cover and interior page are cut out of the issue and glued to the matting. The art is not glued but set in place and all tree are in the same picture frame just separated by matting. The total piture frame is about 3.5' by 2'. It looks really great and the little lady actually let me keep it in our living room to show off HA!
