*NYFC 2025* SURPRISE DROP #1 ANNOUNCEMENT!
...is a DOUBLE announcement!
First,
we are thrilled to welcome modern Marvel/DC superstar CLAY MANN to the team!
Second, ABSOLUTE BATMAN #11 original art drops tomorrow, Thursday, October 30th, at 9AM PST/12PM EST! ALL pages + cover!
ABSOLUTE BATMAN has taken the world by storm. As a comic, as a character, as an idea. As comics fans, we're so lucky to be able to experience this as it happens!
Not surprisingly, the original art has become the most sought after art in the hobby.
We dropped the first two issues of
Nick Dragotta's
art in 2024. And everything sold out instantly at
record prices. Since then, EVERY SINGLE ensuing Dragotta issue has sold complete. This will be the first ABSOLUTE BATMAN art available at a drop in a year!
ABSOLUTE BATMAN #11 features Nick's hand-picked guest artist, a fan-favorite Batman artist in his own right: Our newest member,
Clay Mann! And Clay knocks this issue OUT OF THE PARK! A standalone Absolute Bane story featuring the first appearance of BATBANE. The original art is simply stunning. Tomorrow, ALL 23 pages PLUS the cover will be available for an epic NYFC 2025 art drop event!
Join us tonight for a live chat and art preview with Clay himself at 5PM PST/8PM PST:
Then set your alarms for tomorrow, Thursday, at 9AM PST/12PM EST. Click the
UPDATES tab at the drop to see all of Clay's awesome pages at once. Time payment plans available with prior approval. Thanks everyone, see you at the chat, and good luck tomorrow!
Felix
