Watchmen #1 Original Artwork UPDATED

No, I'm not talking about Before Watchmen. I'm talking about Watchmen.

One time I showed you a little-remembered Dave Gibbons Watchmen poster, but guess what? As I write this, the 1986 cover artwork to Watchmen #1 is up for bid at Heritage Auctions! The current bid is at $40,000 and the auction is expected to top out around (gulp) $100,000. While it lasts, here is a link to the auction page. Good luck to each of you who is placing a bid!

UPDATE on 2/22/2013:
The artwork sold today with a high bid 0f $130,000! The winning bidder will be paying a total of $155,000 because Heritage Auctions adds a percent-based Buyer's Premium to the winning bid. Whew!
