Cool Daredevil artwork!

Oh, you know, just the very first appearance of Daredevil art ever. No biggie.

P.S. No, I am certainly not the owner!

This has been up for auction at least 3 times in the last few months. Apparently $100k is a tough pill to swallow.

Who cares what he wants? I would imagine that there are barely a handful of people who'd even pay half of that. It's still a very cool page! It's certainly not something you see everyday. I'm glad just to see it. I don't have to own everyting I like.

Very cool piece of comic book history. I was reading the description and he mentions that the cover to Daredevil #1 no longer exists. I wonder what happened to it?

True. I was just commenting more on the fact that it keeps getting listed. He shoud consider an auction house.

If I had the money, I'd get it.

In fact, if I had the money, I'd negotiate for it and i'm sure that he/she woul dtake my offer as I'm almost certain that he/she has not and will not get any offers close to what they're asking.

I Do, however, think that EBAY is the WRONG place to try and sell something of this value as well as for what he/she's asking.

I shudder to think about how many pages were given away at a whim, sometimes to children to simply color in and then throw away... Had people had even the slightest inkling as to the potential value or historical importance, I think you'd see far many more pages from the era in better condition.

A friend of mine has the first page with Abomination on it (Gil Kane). Okay, not exactly Dr. Doom, but still quite nifty from a historical standpoint!

That is a damn fine piece of history. Any Hulk fan would go weak in the knees over that.

Ohhh - that... sorry guys - I didn't realize the historical significance of it and I cut it up to complete this really cool collage I was making...

It's titled "Things that are Yellow"

I colored him in

I agree - this doesn't belong on ebay. With as many times as he's listed it he's not saving money...

He should be listing somewhere like Comic Link.

I would. I'd want it over the Doom.
