Rob Liefeld's New Mutants #100 Original Artwork – And An Unseen Cable
There are a couple of Rob Liefeld pages of note in the from Heritage Auction. A page from the final issue of New Mutants #100 that saw the series relaunch as X-Force. And a page with Cable that Heritage was unsure of the provenance for. So I asked Rob directly, and he put me straight; it's from the comic book series Cable: First Contact, a series from 2000 that was unpublished by Marvel Comics at the time but was, instead, repurposed for X-Force in 2004. Although this page was not. Here are the two pieces, the first at auction ending at 1:30 PM Central Time, Friday, April 2, 2021, and, at time of writing, with bids of $4,600. The second ends at 11:00 AM Central Time, Saturday, April 3, 2021, and currently at $380 – though we have not identified it, it may do a little better a little sooner.
Rob Liefeld The New Mutants #100 Story Page 18 Original Art (Marvel 1988). This key page from the last issue of New Mutants sets the stage for Rob Liefeld's trailblazing X-force series that followed in its wake. Shatterstar arrives at Xavier's mansion looking for X-Men but instead finds Cannonball, Warpath, Domino, Boom Boom, and Cable. The ragtag group would go on to make up the initial core of the top-selling X-Force team. Rendered in ink over graphite on Marvel Bristol board with an image area of 10" x 15", framed and matted to an overall size of 15.25" x 21.5". Signed by Rob Liefeld in the lower margin. Production hole-punched on the side margins, and tape over the stat page number (18, but story Page 14). Includes the printed comic framed alongside the art. In Excellent condition.
