Awesome! Congratulations, Phil.

Those are sweet! Can you take a better image/scan of the Namor/Marrina piece? How much did that go for?

Amazing! Those are incredible. I regularly go to fanexpo and toronto comic-con and can't find any pages like that
The Davis/Farmer page was a pure fluke and coincidence, as it was the only one from that issue in his stack.
The internet and Twitter specifically is a great help;I saw that McGuinness was coming so contacted his agent with regards to the sketch cover to make sure I got on his list. I hadn't planned on purchasing any art as well but I browsed his portfolios as I waited and had to have the page.
I start preparing for cons months in advance, with a real anal military precision. It's part of the reason I really want to make the Appearances section & wiki the best it can be.
Definitely Simone. He's Italian, I believe.
I'll be back home tomorrow so will try to sort one at the weekend.
It was priced at $200 but it was part of a miscellaneous stack that Mark had been carrying round for 5 years and was desperate to get rid of so I got it for $115.
I also have this poster which I got a few years ago...
ALPHA FLIGHT IS RESURRECTED, LONG LIVE ALPHA FLIGHT!
I got these little guys about a month ago on Evilbay...
Which pretty much completes my Alpha Flight minimates (with this pack I got last year)...
The only Alpha minimate I don't have is a Wolverine.

I have that one too! It's part of a thing called 'The X-Men Portfolio'; four pictures that size.
That's cool!
... but you'll never find a Wolverine. Just too obscure a character.

I added a Canadian Thor to my collection
I love it!
I think I could do a northstar costume just need to find a good shirt for him as already have a "wig" from my superman costume haha
It took me a while, but I just suddenly remembered the Dilbert / Dogbert 'Thor, Dog of Thunder' storyline (inasmuch as Dilbert has storylines).

Between Big Hero 6 and the Inhumans there are some pretty decent throwbacks that Marvel could use later-on.
I'd like to see AF meet Guardians in the near future; that'd be good for the team.
A few new sketches up on my site from yesterday:
Mike Perkins & Gabriel Hernández Walta were both at the con so I managed to get pretty much the whole of Marjorie Liu's Astonishing X-Men run signed!
I also managed to get a stunning sketch from each of them;
as well as a Sasquatch from Lee Sullivan:

Oh those look amazing! Nice pickup Phil!
What do you do with your signed issues? I mean do you keep them in a bag/board or do you placed them in a hard plastic sleeve for display?
