So I got myself a couple of new pieces towards the New Year, which were transported to India thanks to jace<\/a> and Gaurav Sabnis. Scanned and uploaded the whole bunch ( seven of them) today. These are the ones I got:<\/p>\n

Starman<\/a><\/i> page, by Tony Harris. One of my favourite hardcore superhero series. I did not think too highly of Tony Harris’s art when I began reading this, but his work blew me over as I got into the series. <\/p>\n

Transmetropolitan<\/a><\/i> page, by Darick Robertson. I have been trying to pick up an iconic Transmet page for quite some time – the perfect mesh of words and pictures that would define the series all by itself. Trust me, there are quite a few such pages that capture the spirit of Ellis’s masterpiece, but even this page is cool, man. It has Spider lighting up, which is an iconic sight in itself.<\/p>\n

Vampirella<\/a><\/i> pinup, by Harry Roland. Roland happens to be a pinup artist and illustrator of repute, especially known for his interpretations of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ fantasy. This one is the first colour art piece I’ve bought, and it’s amazing.<\/p>\n

Groo<\/a><\/i> and Fanboy<\/a><\/i>, both by Sergio Aragones. I have realised that a good Groo 2-page splash or a wraparound cover would be a Grail Piece for me. *sigh*<\/p>\n

Another Hitman<\/a><\/i> page by John McCrea, which features the last appearance of Sixpack. <\/p>\n

My first double page splash<\/a>, from the Gen-13\/FF<\/i> one-shot. The inking on this is too cool for words, and I scanned in a portion of the detail<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Aaaaaaaaah, that felt good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
