Description: Incredibly rare comic art portfolio! Only 1500 were made worldwide. The certificate of authenticity is signed and numbered and each plate is numbered as well. Please don't be one of those eBay weirdos who watchlist an item, but never make an offer and never accept an offer. What's the point? This set is #201 of 1500. Even if you don't recognize the names, you'll recognize the art and characters! John Severin is from the old EC days! (I apologize to our Gallic brothers across the Atlantic--I am just not as familiar with the history of French artists.) Note that many of these artists have since passed away. I've noted just a few of the many credits these greats have. (Apologies for any errors or omissions. eBay crapped out on me while editing this): 1) Jack Kirby - creator of Captain America, co-creator of Fantastic Four, X-Men, Thor, Hulk, Iron Man2) Walter Simonson - artist and/or writer on various properties like Elric, Wonder Woman, Fantastic Four3) Jean-Claude Gal4) Bob McLeod - Crazy, Incredible Hulk, Conan, Detective Comics, New Mutants, Superman5) John Buscema - Avengers, Silver Surfer, Conan6) John Severin's "Rallying 'Round the Flag!"
