A very late shout-out for this auction of Oliver Frey art that's up for sale today - there's at least one page of comic art (from Look & Learn), other material that may be original art (or just prints) plus some of his 'racier' material too!

Actually the sale is tomorrow, Thursday 30th May - sorry!

A quick reminder about these 2 Leo Baxendale pages that are up for auction later today - I'll update the blog later with prices realised

[Rip Kirby]

I've long wanted to catalogue the issues of Super Detective Library that contained Rip Kirby strips and a recent listing on ebay gives me a chance to do just that...

Can anyone help a friend out with these back issues? 'Irish classics in picture story' is REALLY obscure (even for me, ha ha!). Even a cover image would be much appreciated, thanks!

2 pages of original Carlos Ezquerra art from the Strontium Dog story 'Journey into Hell' are (for me) the standout item in the Catawiki auction this week. These (and other pages) are highlighted below.
