We noted the other day that a new art dealer—Felix Comic Art— was o�ering rarely seen
pages from Bryan Lee O’ Malley’s Scott Pilgrim books. Well, the sale is now live and as you
can see the pages are �ying o� the site.
Priced from about $200-500 I would have to say these are a bargain. And while it’s a shame
they don’t have any lettering, there are still some fairly iconic pages available. (The above one
is still available for $500 as I write this.) Seriously, if I had some spare money I would invest in
this. Scott Pilgrim is already a cult book and �lm, but depending on how Seconds, O’Malley’s
follow-up GN due this summer does, he’ll either be the next comics superstar or…merely the
author of the zeitgeist comic of the Aughts.
PS: I am told that O’Malley is still on great terms with his previous art dealer, The Beguiling.
This is just a matter of making the art available to a wider audience than the more localized
store.

I put in a request/hold/whatever for a page. O’Malley is one of the few artists I don’t have
in my sketchbook that I really want (the others are Miller, Mignola and Allred), but a page
for $200 would be amazing.
Plus, it’s the rare piece of comic art that might wife would enjoy having up outside of my
o�ce.

No lettering, and blacks not �lled in… just like the greats of decades past! Grunt.

Thanks for the update, Heidi!
A couple of notes:
– Price range was from $100-$800. And yes, we knew the prices were low, relative to
both the secondary market (eBay) as well as his previous outlet. Bryan wanted to get the
art into the hands of fans. I believe we succeeded. Orders have come in from all over the
world. The vast majority were for single pages, so the art has truly been spread out
evenly.
– As of this morning, 98 out of 102 pages listed have been sold or claimed. I’m a longtime
collector and I’ve never seen anything like this.
– If anyone is interested in the next SCOTT PILGRIM sale, please sign up for my mailing list
and/or follow me on Twitter (@FelixComicArt) to get the heads-up.
Thanks again…now back to packing!
