We will be revamping this blog and selling more items of Gene's, as well as using this forum to post his new commission work.
Here's a typical inquiry:
I've been a fan of Gene's from the Rampaging Hulk days. I went to his web site and see that the store is down and was wondering if he's still doing commissions. If so, I'm inquiring into the price of a Hulk transformation piece in inks. 5 characters in landscape - from Bruce to the Hulk (left to right) on 11 x 17. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Answer: While Gene is not keen on drawing the Hulk in any event ("He's too ugly," said Gene, "and I've only done him a few times professionally") he would do this piece but only as 11x17 so that he could do it justice, and the cost is $1000 for tight pencils. Understand that he gets a lot of requests and can be picky as he is very slow in turning things around now.
É muito bom poder rever a arte do mestre Colan. Tempo era aquele em que a Marvel tinha, de fato, um grande time de artístas. Pena que esse tempo já passou. Gene Colan e Joe Sinnot eram uma dupla imbatível.
