Our Trade Paperback

The Holiday season is always a bright one here at 1988, and this year is no exception. Those on our gallery email list will get a nice little surprise at the beginning of next week in their inbox. So if you aren't on the mailer, send over an email to gallery1988@aol.com and ask to jump aboard. Worth it.

Why not make some sort of announcement today though?

As you might know Gallery 1988 and Golden Apple Comics will present "Under The Influence: A Tribute To Stan Lee," an epic art show where almost 100 artists will pay homage to comic book legend Stan Lee by painting his creations and tales in their own styles. We did something similar for Walt Disney in 2006, and it's still considered one of our best. But back then we couldn't get Walt Disney, or even his preserved brain in a jar. This time, we got Stan "The Man" Lee to actually endorse the show, and attend the opening reception on Jan. 8, 2008 from 7-11 PM! So as our first real Stan Lee Tribute posting, let's unveil the insane artist line-up...
