The Felix Comic Art Podcast
If a fire is threatening your collection, what pieces do you save? How do you make impossible choices in an instant? Hopefully you'll never have to face this collector's nightmare. But David Mandel did. Yes, we bring Dave back on the show one month after the LA fires. Hear what he did, what he saved first, and what he's learned from the experience. It's an edge-of-your-seat account with perhaps the world's greatest collection of original comic art and movie props at stake...thanks for enduring PTSD for our listeners, Dave! Plus, Daniel Warren Johnson joins us in a lighter discussion...

The first episode of 2025 has arrived! And it's a spicy one! On location at OAX (Original Art Expo) in Orlando, FL, we welcome back popular guests Gene Park, Andy Robbins, and Yo Kuri for a roundtable discussion on OAX and the state of the hobby. But right before we were about to record, Gene and long-time supercollector Tom Coker pulled off what may be the biggest blockbuster trade this hobby has ever seen. So of course we had to rope Tom in, too! Hear it all now! Thanks and enjoy!

Our art drop for Nick Dragotta's ABSOLUTE BATMAN #1 last month set an absolute record for a modern comic...and shook the hobby to its core. Now, hear how it all went down, with two collectors who were there: Chris Killackey and Brant Boersma. Was it all folly, foolishness, FOMO? Or just another Felix drop? Listen and decide for yourselves! Thanks to Chris and Brant for risking ridicule and sharing their thoughts! Enjoy!

We're back! Thank you all for your patience during our break. But I believe with my latest guest, Ken Viola, that the wait was worth it. What drives this podcast more than anything are the collector stories. Having been a collector since the 1950s, it's safe to say that Ken has witnessed and experienced more than most in this hobby. Not many can say they were friends with Steve Ditko, or got to hang Frank Frazetta's Egyptian Queen painting in their parents' home, or can lay claim to being the OG Alan Moore art collector. Or produce a documentary featuring Will Eisner, Frank Miller, Moebius,...

Not quite Richard-level, but hey, we needed to fill out this episode! Two hours of non-stop comic art talk, enjoy!
