Have you ever wanted to own a page—or perhaps two—of rare original DC Comics art from the ’60s? Now’s your chance!

My wife has decided to part with the following pages which have been in her collection for more than 50 years.

First up—this beautiful Joe Kubert art from the Hawkman and Hawkgirl story “The Men Who Moved the World,” which appeared in Brave and Bold #44 (October-November 1962).

Place your bids here.

Also up for auction, this page from Showcase #62 (May-June 1966)—the first appearance of the Inferior Five—as credited to Joe Orlando and Mike Esposito. (I use the word “credited” because there seems to be a consensus that it was ghosted for Orlando by Jerry Grandenetti.)

You can bid on this historic page here.

If you’re interested (and who wouldn’t be?), better act fast. You only have until August 4-6, which is when Heritage will be holding its live Comics & Comic Art Signature Auction. But Internet bidding is ongoing, so if you want to own either of these, get involved now.

Good luck!
