jeff - I have been buying comics since the early '70s (Jerry Bails was my mentor) and when I saw how my comic digest was packaged I had to let you know that I am happy, and impressed to no end! Postal-gorilla-proof packing, instant shipping, spot ON grading...what more can a comic nut ask for?! Thanks to limitations on just how much I can write for your feedback I had to restrain myself a tad, and then finally had to resort to a bit of creative editing to get it in there. So, for you, and your crew, job WELL done!!! I will definitely be checking in regularly on your auction. |
William Erwin "Will" Eisner (March 6, 1917 – January 3, 2005) was an American comics writer, artist and entrepreneur. He is considered one of the most important contributors to the development of the medium and is known for the cartooning studio he founded; for his highly influential series The Spirit; for his use of comics as an instructional medium; for his leading role in establishing the graphic novel as a form of literature with his book A Contract with God and Other Tenement Stories; and for his educational work about the medium as exemplified by his book Comics and Sequential Art.
The comics community paid tribute to Eisner by creating the Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards, more commonly known as "the Eisners", to recognize achievements each year in the comics medium. Eisner enthusiastically participated in the awards ceremony, congratulating each recipient. In 1987, with Carl Barks and Jack Kirby, he was one of the three inaugural inductees of the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame.
