Don Heck - Avengers #37 Unpublished Cover Original Art (Marvel, 1967).
<B>Don Heck - Avengers #37 Unpublished Cover Original Art (Marvel, 1967).</B></I> Don Heck's professional career began in 1949 when he started working in the production department of Harvey Comics. Soon he graduated to penciling, and after a memorable stint at New Media Comics, he became a mainstay at Marvel, drawing mystery, Western, and war stories. When the House of Ideas began its Silver Age superhero revolution, Don Heck's first major success as a superhero artist was the legendary Iron Man origin story in <B>Tales of Suspense</B></I> #39. He then drew a few early stories featuring Thor and Giant Man, but for most Marvelites, it's Heck's long run on <B>The Avengers</B></I> for which he is most fondly remembered. This cover is an unpublished work created for <B>The Avengers</B></I> #37, with the title of "To Conquer a Colossus." Captain America, Goliath, Hawkeye, the Scarlet Witch, Black Widow, and the Wasp all attack the Colossus in unison -- he's toast! The title logo and other type elements are a carefully color-matched stat addition, and the art is in Excellent condition. The overall paper size is approximately 15.5" x 22.5" with an image area of 13.5" x 20.25". <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
