I thought I’d start this blog page with my favorite piece in my collection. This isn’t the rarest piece I have – nor is it the most expensive – but it combines the beauty of sculpture with my favorite artist – Sam Keith. This piece is #87 out of 2500. I’ve never seen a grey variant of this bust and I don’t think there is one. I purchased this in Boston at the Newbury Comics. You can see the SpiderHulk figure in the back – but that will get it’s own post later…
Keith only did one issue of the Incredible Hulk (#368) vs. Mr. Hyde. It was during one of the times that the Hulk was grey – but the bust is in green. Keith did do many covers for Marvel Comics Presents… and those had some great Green Hulk art – but I will have posts on those later.

[...] Sam Keith card on the bottom looks like the model for the Art Asylum bust that I posted. Click right here to see it. [...]

I believe this is based of when Sam Keith did the Wolverine v. Hulk mini-series.

Maybe – but I think it’s actually based on some older Marvel Comic Presents art. I did love “Six Hours” though. I think Kieth’s Wolverine is one the best around.
