Wayne Boring - Original Superman Painting (1980
Wayne Boring - Original Superman Painting (1980). This colorful specialty painting is by one of the all-time great Superman artists, Wayne Boring. Boring did a fair number of these commissioned pieces, but this has to be one of the most eccentric, with the always-popular Bizarro Superman taking on the Genuine Article, to defend the "honor" of Bizarro Lois No. 1. Some of the more surreal aspects of this painting include the flesh-colored Bizarros (in the comics, these loveable freaks were always chalk-white in appearance), the skyful of swooshing planets, and the field of mushrooms in the background (maybe Boring partook of a few of those 'shrooms before starting on this painting!). The color palette is vivid and eye-catching, and Boring's Superman is as iconic as ever, even when being pelted with Green Kryptonite. The piece measures 15" x 19", and is in excellent condition overall. 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. 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.
