Good afternoon/evening. Here for the raves about Marcus' no longer hidden treasures.

Hi Mark!
@Marcus...who are some of the current artists whose work you enjoy?
Dan T

Steg-Man & Friends just started if you want a simulcast on YouTube.  Cates is wearing some serious gold chains.

@marcus wai - I can trade you my DWJ Wrestletober sketch of Diamond Dallas Page.  It's my B piece after my Dusty Rhodes Wrestletober sketch by DWJ.

Marcus or Felix: do you have any insight into why Sienkiewicz worked at such different scales/sizes in his early '80s art? The difference in scale between the X-Men and Transformers pieces is dramatic.
Felix Lu
4:08
@Mark...don't know! But there didn't appear to be any standard size for Bill for covers (pages are all 11X17 for the most part). I've seen a lot of Sienkiewciz paintings, and they're all over the place, size-wise.

@marcus I just started this year. I feel like I'm coming to the game late and have mostly just bought Jaime Hernandez pages as a foundation.
Felix Lu

After the 3rd day, we'd go stir crazy at the booth and that's when we do extra ciricular stuff entertain ourselves.
Ron Lim

@Mark That's an expensive foundation!
