Cover Contest Sept 9-16 : THE KNUCKLE SANDWICH!

[Iron Maiden]

Congratulations to MRP! And thank you for your vote Speed Force Unlimited

Great job MRP. It was a great cover.
Thanks to the four who voted for me. It tied my record.
I love green suit Quicksilver. I would love to find a green action figure to go with my Avengers. But I have the blue suit so its not so bad.

If it is any consolation, I have the Bowen Designs (really miss them!) Quicksilver mini-bust also in the blue. There was a green version but in was sold in limited quantities. If you check eBay, you can find the green version of this ranging for $69-$100. The full sized statue looks great but that goes for around $400. There's a listing on Ebay for a Marvel Legends Quicksilver in green if you want to go for it at $65!

Part of my Bowen Collection

Thanks for the link. I am pretty new to collection action figures and such. I didnt even know these busts were a thing. I will check out the Quicksilver and the others. Thanks

It's somewhat apropos to see the exes not looking at each other.

I know, right? I hope Moleman and Super Skrull patch things up soon!

Now there's an odd couple!

Unfortunately Bowen Designs went out of business but you can still find a lot of their products on eBay. I have a fairly large collection of the mini busts because that statues were very pricey.


My curio has Bowen Designs stuff inside and then the Eaglemoss figurines on top.

I absolutely love that framed Doom pic above the display case!

Man great collection. I have to check a lot of these out. See what I can get. THanks

Have a great time hunting some of them down, babyblob. Sometimes the looking is half the fun even if you don't buy it.

I snagged the print from eBay a while back and it is from a batch that Gabriel Dell Otto signed. I do have a small collection of art. I have a page from the Children's Crusade that I bought from regular Jim Cheung inker Mark Morales when I visited them in Artist's Alley at C2E2 around 2015, a sketchbook cover of Doctor Doom that Jonathan HIckman (no charge!) drew for me at the same convention, a Mike Wieringo page from Fantastic Four #500 that I bought from inker Karl Kesel from his agent on eBay at the time and 16 page of inking/color guides done by Mark Badger for Mike Mignola's pages in the GN Triumph and Torment


From Avengers Children's Crusade #7



From Fantastic Four #500






The color guide with the ink guide overlay from Triumph and Torment. I showed it to Mike Mignola at C2E2, one of the early ones and he explained that was an old process they used back in the 1980s. He signed my copy of the hardcover version .

So this is actually two pieces, the transparency with the inking of Mignola's pencils and then an art sheet with the colors done separately. I lay the one on top of the other and you get the effect of the printed page.
