I wish you luck on shaking loose the 880 cover. I think that's one of those covers that could reach 50k+ at auction.

Nice cover. I actually like the pen and ink more than the colorized version. Congratulations.

Is that the cover with Joker's face made up of a bunch of bats? It amazes me that stuff so recent can climb so high, so fast.

Congrats on the cover.

Yeah, I agree and I doubt I'll ever get it. I figured my best chance would be to find the original buyer. I actually had Jock email the original buyer with my offer, offering Jock a 10% finders fee. Never heard a response, so I'm inclined to believe it changed hands some time ago.

All that said, I'm good with that and can't complain

That's how I feel about all non-painted art lol. Why I love Batman NOIR series so much.

Indeed. It's been licensed everywhere and is THE Joker image of the past...I dunno, 20 years? IMO anyhow. Jock is probably kicking himself...but how could you possible know with this stuff...takes on a life of its own sometimes.
