Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Depends on the bust really. Certain characters like Batman, Joker, Superman, Red Skull, Daredevil have appreciated in the aftermarket. Others like the original Hulk haven't really. Also the Galactus Maq had an open ES, as did the sentinel, and those went up as well.

Bingo. The Comicbook guy strategy doesn’t always work. Plus eBay sucks. Can’t trust it.

All the latest life-size Marvel and DC busts have been sculpted by Ryan Peterson, so I guess it's safe to assume he's done this, too.

At least Spidey doesn't seem to be a vein-fest.

Honestly I don’t like any of these busts. Especially the Hulks. I didn’t know this guy did all of them. This Spidey looks good though.

Same here. Maybe Sideshow asked him to tone down the overkill tendons and capillarity for Spidey? We still have to see full pictures of it, though.

Spidey doesn't look like his style, but I guess we'll know soon enough.

I actually don’t like any of those bust. Deadpool’s ok I guess but i don’t like Deadpool since Ryan Reynolds. I don’t even see him as Deadpool any more. I just see him as Reynolds

Though I don't completely agree with Mr. Peterson's aesthetic I can appreciate it.

Someone should commission him to do a James Jonah Jameson and Popeye Lifesize busts.
