Doesnt look like an Aspen print:

Don't expect this to show on Aspenstore at all - it doen't have the Aspen footer of their normal prints.
I don't have that kind of cash free, even if it is really rare and going to be a major collector's item.

It definitely looks like a non-standard Aspen print. Was it a private print that Peter did on the side?
How much were these selling for originally at the show?

The two auctions I can see (one completed besides that one above) don't say - Ben is there, hopefully he can give us more info.

Its a nice image (despite my prior comments on the similar sketch cover last week) and I would have paid $50 on aspenstore for it... but $150 - too much!

I do like things to match too - the proper Aspen print style with the text (and not on the bottom corner of the image) would have made this better in my opinion.

Its all good. In all honesty, given how difficult these are to get and given the fact that I have an in on them for a very good price, I probably shouldn't even try to get one of the 5 prints that Aspen puts up each day. I should just leave those for other people.

hey guys the print is actually a private print that Peter produced. Which is why it is different than all other prints.

What's funny is that I saw the prelim pencils for this piece on Tuesday. He told me he was going to try to have it ready for the next con. I guess he hustled his way through it.

I'll now fur sure today what the price is, but I think the price is probably $50.

Ah, I see.
I think for some it would be worth the 25 bucks per print to avoid the stress of having to go thru the ordering process for 5 days, though it does take the fun out of the event, I guess lol.

Print went up a bit late today but its available now!!
Last day go go

Edit, and it's done... it went fast today!

So, how did well did everyone make out this year? Did you guys get all the prints you wanted? I managed to get 4/5 dailies, missed the Thursday one due to bad timing. Drat! Oh well, on the plus side, all the SDCC prints this year were great, both the dailies and the regular releases. Definately worth wearing out my F5 key for!
