Nope. It's product. I bought it, I own it. Does any other manufacturer of anything receive a percentage of any future sale?

I am thinking absolutely not. You don't see Van Gogh making claims like that, he ain't no jerk.

Now that this thread has mentioned his name several times and even quoted him, we all owe Neal Adams $1,000 each.

No, ownership is just that. If you bought it legally, then it's yours and you can and should be able to do as you please with it. By this logic, we should give Honda a cut every time one of their cars changes hands and I owe Sony some money for an old TV I sold a couple years back.

Neal forgot to disclose that the signature on the coa will cost an extra $40.

No, if I purchased it, it's my property to do with as I will. Given the significance of this cover, it blows my mind that the seller agreed to this and that anyone would sign that form of Barry Windsor Smith's. Where was the decry by Adams posted, Gerry?

Edit: After thinking about it, the only reason that I could see the owner of this piece agreeing to splitting proceeds with Neal, is if he and his family had planned to file a lawsuit in an attempt to get the piece returned to them.

I guess I would need to know how "equitable" is defined in the terms of the agreement. The seller is obviously not required to share any of the proceeds of the sale of the artwork, so it appears that they came to a split that was comfortable to them. Do we know how the equity is split on this sale?
