I met HOWARD twice now - once like 10 years ago (when he was inking Aquaman) - and once like 3 years ago, when I gut a small (very small) sketch of his own character Kung-Fu (or something). But the good news is that it was free. No idea what he could do if he tried or was commissioned.
No luck on Fabbri even though I've done a few google searches. He could do GREAT work.

Very nice! But there has to be more than 2 firing torpedos because you have one, I have one, and there's one that was just listed on ebay with one.
Of course Warren could have made a difference between torpedos and phasers and I just haven't been observant enough...

It's really close, but Warren mentioned he had to go back & do a few others right before the series was released (and I don't see any new pages up). It's highly likely those weren't able to be scanned because of time restraints.
Of those shown, 7 are firing something and 11 appear to be firing lasers.

I'm a geek (not that THAT is a big surprise)... I've tracked 114 ended auctions on ebay - average price as of today is $170.67. I may have missed one or two, but I've sure tried to track them all...
One bidder has bought 53 of the cards (average price of $142.01 per). Another has bought 18 (average price of $143.56 per).
Highest price paid to date was today with a buy-it-now of GBP 299.99 or US $536.20.
Lowest price paid was a presell for $79.99 in mid-Nov 05.

raywoo888You scare me too...
I watch the the bay too, but that is just tight. Good luck with your auction. Maybe the guy will get #54.
How do we average Joes ever complete with a guy that buys 53 of them? You can bet those will probably never show up again.

tialessaHey, I scare myself sometimes

I think I mentioned a few times that I was blown away by these cards and wanted all of them (impossible and totally unrealistic, but I still wanted them).
And yeah, I'm hoping this one doesn't sell as I don't really want to give it up...
LOTS popped out of the woodwork this week...

Seems you weren't the only one considering who've gobbled many of them up. I wish I had the cash to spend like that!

Oh sure... you've checked those curtains so well you've no doubt left the door wide open again.
