Got a couple of ebay auctions up — a very rare poster and an original strip. A note about the latter — over the years I’ve gotten a lot of email asking if I ever sell original art. Mostly I haven’t, because even when I was working in pen and ink, the “final” art was the product of several layers of xerography and zip-a-tone, not exactly what most comic art collectors have in mind when they want to buy a pen-and-ink original. But since about 2000, my artwork has been created entirely digitally, which means there is a finite supply of the pre-digital originals. On top of which, I almost never sell them. So that’s got to be worth something, right? We’ll see…
