Yup the market skyrocketed 15-20 years too soon.

I would be happy to help crash the market. Go ahead and sell me your PH splash for 1/4 for what you paid for it. I am sure the market will crash immediately after that and you can afford a bunch more artwork.

I don't think that would crash the market fast enough. I will offer 1/10th of what you paid Ken. That's just the kind of nice guy that I am.

I think that's true- but if you're in a position where you have such volume of work from a hot artist/title that you could live with trading away some examples (as you'd have plenty left), then the high cost of your stuff could negate the need for $ for the other guy's stuff. It just comes down to if you want something someone else has, and they dig something of yours that you don't mind releasing.

I really wonder how Rob’s collection is looking here days with Invincible being on FIRE due to the show?
He is who I first thought of when I binged the series. People will be flocking towards the books now. And looking for art

I thought of him too when i started watching the series. I looked up some of his old threads to see when the last time he posted was and it looked like he was thinking about selling a lot of stuff after the comic ended. Hopefully he held on to most of it

I thought he was keeping all of the OA, but getting rid of commissions? I sure hope that’s the case!

I know he was buying a ton of published stuff on speculation of a movie as investment. I don't know if this series was what he was thinking but if it is driving prices up, it will have the same result. I also know he was selling a lot later - hope he held onto a large chunk of it to profit from the rising prices of this stuff.
