And check out OUR NEWLY LISTED ITEMS. This is an original printed production art cover for Batman Villains Secret Files & Origins #1, published by DC Comics. It features an awesome cover image, with artwork by the legendary Brian Bolland. Bolland is well-known for his work and covers on titles such as 2000 AD, Judge Dredd, Camelot 3000, Batman: The Killing Joke, Wonder Woman, and more. The cover features some of the greatest villains from the Dark Knight’s Rogues Gallery, including Catwoman, the Scarecrow, Two-Face, Poison Ivy, and the Joker. The Clown Prince Of Crime has an absolutely devilish look on his face, as it seems he is about to spray something bad on Poison Ivy using his old flower on the jacket trick. Classic Bolland Joker image! This is a full-color production art cover, including both the front and back covers, and with printing on both sides of the covers, the same way it looks in the published comic. It has printer color code bars going across the top of the front and back covers (see picture), and also on the reverse side. The piece measures approximately 13 3/4″ by 11 3/8″ when unfolded, and is slightly larger than the actual size comic. This is NOT a mass-produced print or lithograph. It is a production art cover that is created during the production process for the comic. This is a very cool and rare collectible that you will hardly ever get a chance to see. A great piece which would look fantastic framed and prominently displayed. Please note that this is an authentic piece from the first printing, not something made for a later reprint or collection book. We have been told there are reprint production art pieces being listed by other sellers that make them seem to be old and from original printings, even though they are not for example, older production art did not have the words on a separate sheet from the images. Those kinds of things were only done much more recently, using computer technology. We advise buyers to be careful, as there are disreputable sellers tricking many people into believing they are purchasing items that are older and more valuable than what they actually are. Some sellers simply do not state their items are from reprints, while others make very long listings and put a tiny mention about reprints buried deep in the listing, and/or use a hard-to-read font color (like yellow) to prevent buyers from seeing this information. Unfortunately, everything else in the listing the title, pictures of the cover of the comic from the 1st printing, etc. This item is a genuine piece from the first print, not something made for a reprint.
