    Am I out of date or is $50 an outrageous price for a small poster?  Is it already framed or something? 

    • goldnight

      Waaaay out of date.

    • graphiclanguage

       the real sticker price shock will be when it is on eBay for $300.00 in a few days.

    • drewcadia

      yes… you are out of date
      1. olly moss is one of the most sought after artists out right now (some of his posters are over $1000 on ebay)2. this is a limited edition silkscreen. they only printed 380. not 10 million like a justin beiber poster. not just a poster. 3. 18×24 is fairly large once you frame it properly

      • jandrese

        It’s 1 1/2 feet by 2 feet.  The most common poster size  3 feet by 2 feet, so its definitely on the small side for a poster.  I suppose if you’re plopping down that kind of money for it you’re going to put it in some really big frame.

          Since when is art priced by the square foot?

          • Brandon Wright

             when it got privatized like everything else…

      Search eBay for Olly Moss. This will likely go for quadruple in secondary markets what it’s selling for at SDCC. 

      It’s basically supply and demand.

  • mike40s

    Its a combination of a bunch of things, but basically, these are great prints by very collectible artists.

    Oh I get it. Finn sounds like Fin. I love some of the old Mondo stuff, but they haven’t put out much that tickles my fancy lately.

    VERY out of date. $50 is a steal when you see what they’ll sell for on ebay 10 minutes later

  • jarable

    Is that Kate Beaton’s pony in silhouette?

    • http://twitter.com/thanat_o_maton PXL

      Kind of. It’s apparently based at least in part on it according to Pen Ward.

  • baronkarza

    Visually, it reminds me of the weird ending sequence from “The Black Hole.”

  • Brice Shultz

    Where’s the snail?

    • http://twitter.com/thanat_o_maton PXL

      Maybe it’s underneath the poo-brained horse.
