MARS ATTACKS POPEYE original art

NOTE: Sale extended until June 21! Remember, take $40.00 off the listed prices! Take $60.00 off per page if you buy more than one!

Well folks, we're having an interesting time here -- and by interesting, I mean a whole lot of unexpected expenses have popped up (much-needed car repairs, etc.) -- and the bank account is a bit shy of what we need.  So -- time for some art sales! 

Offered here are what I have left of the original hand-inked pages from the remarkably well-received MARS ATTACKS POPEYE comic book, published by IDW. These were inked in pen on 11x17 bristol board over blue-line print outs of my digital pencils. Lettering is (mostly) digital and printed on the board -- a font of my creation based on vintage Popeye strip lettering.

As you can see, I have 9 of the 22 pages available here. I kept a few pages, and writer Martin Powell was given the "Wha's a Marshkin?" page -- the rest have been sold or traded.  Kansas City folks can see some -- including the double page spread, on display at Clint's Comics.  

The prices listed are my original asking price -- but for the purposes of this sale, for ONE WEEK only, starting today, you can take $40.00 off the per page price -- take $60.00 per page off if you buy more than one. I'll cover shipping costs (in the US). 

This may be my one and only shot at drawing Popeye for print -- and once this small batch of pages is gone, it's gone. Contact me at terrybeatty@mac.com to reserve pages and for payment info (Paypal preferred). First come, first served, as they say. T'anks for lookin' and remembers to eats yer spinach! Arf arf arf!!!
