Rare Liefeld Deadpool original art to test the comic art market – Forbes

Since the start of the pandemic, prices for original comic book art sold at auction have gone through the roof, but as the economy has cooled, will the demand continue? Heritage Auctions is about to find out with unique offering of historically-significant items by a highly-collected artist making their debut at the company’s November comic and comic art event.

The items in question are the preliminary designs that artist Rob Liefeld drew for the pages introducing Deadpool in 1990’s New Mutants #98. Deadpool was an instant breakout hit for Marvel and Liefeld, and has since become the title character in a film franchise whose first two installments grossed $1.6 billion worldwide.

"The numbers at DC are terrifying"

"There's been a lot of speculation about the health of DC, but nothing says 'you're screwed" like this... the top fifty DC titles, 48 of them are Batman books. It is "The Batman Company," just forget the rest. You're now at the place if DC didn't publish anything but Batman, their financial picture would not look much different... no part of that is good news."

The picture forming is one that has been criticized for ...maybe a decade, that only Batman can move month-to-month copies for DC, and all the new directions DC explores to replace the old fanbase with a new one hasn't worked.
