Among many pieces, Comiconnect is auctioning a Thor cover by John Buscema, one by Keith Pollard, a Star Wars Sunday by Russ Manning and a Spider-Man cover by J. Scott Campbell.

An incredible auction with dozens of top pieces. The big one is the historic cover to Frankenstein by Bernie Wrightson (go look at the starting price).

Many Barry Smith pieces like this Weapon X page.

Thor, complete Eternals #2 and its cover by Jack Kirby, a Fantastic Four issue by John Byrne. I’d like to buy an Iron-Man page by John Romita Jr. but I’ve never seen one for sale, if you want to buy this issue think of me when selling pages, the starting price is great…
