Simon Bisley - Original Art for Dark Horse Presents: Aliens #1, page 6 and 7 (Dark Horse, 1992). Simon Bisley's painted comic pages for 2000 AD magazine in the late 1980s forever changed the way that quality comics could be produced. He is still the standard by which all subsequent painters of comic art are compared. These pages, which were both rendered on one 20.5" x 15.25" piece of illustration paper, beautifully demonstrate his mastery of the acrylic medium. The monochromatic pallette adds dramatically to the horrific image of the alien queen. The perspective of page 6 pays excellent homage to the black and white "bug-eyed" monster movies of the 1950's. This piece is in outstanding condition with only very light tape residue in the top margin and minor airbrush overspray the right margin.Each page has an image size of 9" x 14". Important notice: 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. 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.
