Hi folks

Just trying to find other collectors of original comic art,for discussions or even sell or trade pages.I had a large collection but had to sell them off years ago,and I’m only collecting again for the last couple of years.It seems to be a very niche hobby here in Ireland as I only know of two other Irish collectors.

There's loads of Irish folks out there with great collections.

If you're ever out towards the Big Bang there are some great pieces on their walls.

I have a few pieces myself mostly sketches.

This Page from Iron Man by Adi Granov.

As well as his original art work for the First Thougthbubble comic con.

Some Clint Langley Art for the Battletech Card game.

Can you advise where to buy original works? I would like to start my own collection.

Generally you'll find Pros selling pieces at conventions. Or at least doing a commission list before the event if they are not sketching at the event itself.

So keep an eye on your favorites social media platforms.

Ebay might provide some bits if your lucky.

Our Own Declan Shalvey has some items available through here.

Few from the bits of original artwork on my wall. Page from Swamp Thing #54 by Rick Veitch and Alfredo Alcala. Page from Barrack Hussein Obama by Steven Weissman. And an illustration by Philip Barrett. I've a few other pieces, but I kind of went off being burdened by the responsibility of possessing original artwork. (Ha, First World problem, eh?)
