Joe Bodnar, the auction house’s curator, expressed enthusiasm for the event, stating, “ I am honored to be working together with Kevin to showcase his collection. Each piece of his collection is unique and beautiful. Personally, I am a Batman fan and the pages he has in this sale are all keepers,” Smith stated. “My current reduction in home wall space is going to make some ardent comic collectors’ dreams come true! Own original interior art or killer covers from my Daredevil and Green Arrow runs! Pick through classic comic book graphics I’ve collected over the years! This will be the sale of the century, and a percentage of our proceeds will go to a scholarship fund at the Joe Kubert School!” The Kubert School, formerly the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art and Joe Kubert School, is a private, technical school focused on cartooning located in Dover, N.J.
The sale will be broadcast live online on several platforms, including Bodnar’s Auction, LiveAuctioneers, Invaluable, Bidspirit and AuctionZip. Smith himself will be at the broadcast reminiscing and describing each lot it comes up for bid.
