The original art that broke the Comics Code Authority just hit the auction block!

Welcome back to the channel as we break down a monumental new auction from ComicConnect: a special-edition event featuring the near-complete original art runs for Amazing Spider-Man #96 and #97—penciled by the legendary Gil Kane and inked by John Romita Sr.

Published in 1971, these issues altered comic history forever. When the Comics Code Authority refused to approve Stan Lee's storyline addressing Harry Osborn’s drug addiction, Marvel ran the books anyway—marking the first time a mainstream superhero comic bypassed the Code since its 1954 inception.

Now, decades later, the bulk of the original art from both landmark issues has surfaced for public sale.

A $345,000 hammer for prime Frank Miller Dark Knight art, a 2x surge for All Negro Comics #1, and… a devastating $93,000 loss on Detective Comics #1?

Welcome back to the channel as we audit the final results from ComicConnect Event Auction #67! While we already celebrated the historic $430,000 sale of the CGC 9.9 Fantastic Four #48, the rest of the auction delivered a fascinating mix of original art bargains, persistent Golden Age softness, and one of the most painful high-grade flips we’ve seen all year.

Welcome to Episode 22 of Edgar Church’s Basement! Recording from a new external studio setup ahead of an upcoming live interview, we are shifting our forensic lens from Silver Age production pages to the explosive, high-stakes market of post-1980 original comic art.

Unlike pre-1970 Marvel where original art often operated like an information black hole, the post-1980 era changed everything: artists began getting their physical boards back, dedicated art reps emerged, and the modern collector market was born.

From certified multi-million-dollar auction titans to untouchable grails locked in private vaults, we audit 20 iconic covers and landmark pages that define modern comic art collecting
