Iron Man is off on another page in this story, leaving guest-star Daredevil to face the "Brute Fury!" of the Blood Brothers by himself. Classic Marvel Bronze Age bad guys, they can take a licking and keep on ticking. The page was crafted in ink over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 10" x 15". Toned with production tape residue in the margins, this page is in Very Good condition.

Most of the Excalibur gang are on on this page (Captain Britain, Nightcrawler, Kitty Pryde, Meggan, and Rachel Summers), unfortunately for them, most of the Crazy Gang is on the page as well. It's a mind-swapping bit of insanity titled "Still Crazy After All These Years". It's a great page from an early issue of this beloved X-Men spin-off, crafted in ink over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 10" x 15". In Excellent condition.

Gil Elvgren, Patrick Nagel Among Masters Represented at Heritage Auctions' Illustration Art Auction
[Patrick Nagel Bold]( A stunning array of pin-ups will be featured among the most coveted lots in Heritage Auctions' [Illustration Art Auction]( Oct. 13 in Dallas, Texas. Gil Elvgren's 1947 [Vision of Beauty]( (est. $100,000-150,000) is one of the very rare nude oil compositions by Elvgren, one of the most prolific pin-up artists in American Illustration Art history, the creator of more than 500 paintings of beautiful women who was revered by later pin-up artists as an unquestioned master of the genre.
Patrick Nagel's 1985 [Bold]( (est. $60,000-80,000) was consigned by one of his original gallerists. Because he only painted on stretched canvas for less than three years, Nagel's paintings on stretched canvas are particularly rare.
Gil Elvgren's 1946 [We Had a Little Falling Out]( (est. $30,000-50,000) is a fresh-to-the-market find with exceptional provenance, having resided with the same family for about 60 years. The painting, which was reproduced as "figure 176" in Gil Elvgren All His Glamorous American Pin-Ups, by Charles G. Martignette and Louis K. Meisel, shows a woman straddling a capsized (upside down) canoe in shallow water, with water dripping from her hair and the shirt she is wringing out in her hands, indicating that she was in the canoe when it flipped. The original advertisement said, "Be careful on July the fourth. It pays to stop and think. Don't play with firecrackers or you'll end up in the drink."
Hugh Joseph Ward's 1942 [Undercover Man, Private Detective magazine cover]( (est. $25,000-30,000) is an exceptional piece from the pulp genre - fiction magazines that started being published in 1896 and survived until the 1950s. His cover art - including this example - frequently included a beautiful woman (often modeled by his wife) fleeing from some kind of monster, or as is the case here, some sinister thug.
Patrick Nagel's 1982 [Susan]( (est. $20,000-30,000) was given by Nagel to the model who posed for this image nearly 35 years ago. Nagel is known best for his illustrations for Playboy magazine and for the artwork he did for pop group Duran Duran, for whom he designed the cover of the best-selling album Rio. Nagel's trademark 1980s style can be traced back to early 20th-century graphic and art deco design.
