SUPER POWERS COLLECTION: CYBORG (1984)
Kenner1. CYBORG
In the ’80s, the half-human, half-android character known as Cyborg
(born Victor Stone) was commonly known as a member of the Teen Titans.
The character made his first appearance in the pages of DC Comics Presents #26 in October of 1980. In addition to his regular role in Teen Titans comics, Cyborg was also featured in the cast of 1985’s Saturday morning cartoon show The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians (the final incarnation of Super Friends). His voice was handled by Ghostbusters star Ernie Hudson and you cannot get more ’80s than that, right

The Fall ComicLink
Featured Auction has come to a close, with numerous record breaking
results in the comic book and original comic art segments of the
auction. The auction featured comic books from the Golden Age to the
Modern era and new benchmarks were set across all eras.
“This final auction of 2014 included a deep and diverse selection of
comic book offerings and the largest original comic art segment we have
ever had in a single auction.” says ComicLink Consignment Director
Douglas Gillock. “Based on the fierceness of the bidding on many items,
it is obvious that our buyers took notice.”

Just a few sample results in the original art segment of this auction
included a stunning “Bathing Girl: watercolor by Frank Frazetta totaled
$61,200 (almost two and a half times the last public sale), Dave
Cockrum’s Iron Fist #15 cover realized $55,178, Fantastic Four Annual #3 page 22 by Jack Kirby reached $38,000, a Jack Kirby complete Pre-Hero story from Tales of Suspense #35 sold for $31,555, Steve Ditko’s Amazing Spider-Man #30 page 7 ended at $39,000, Jim Lee’s Wizard #168 cover featuring Batman and Robin reached $16,911, George Perez’s New Teen Titans #7 cover brought $14,000, a John Byrne Fantastic Four #244 half-splash ended at $12,250.
Early page from the classic Wolman/Perez "New Teen Titans", featuring
Robin, Starfire, Changeling (Albeit being zapped in the face) and the
Fearsome Five's Shimmer (on the ground) and resident genius Gizmo
(proving both that small can be deadly and a man with enough pockets
covering every inch of his costume can finally have more weapons than a
member of the Bat-clan wearing a slim utility belt. Who makes those things? The same guys as manufacture the Tardis?)
This
page is a real oddity, terrific, but an oddity. It appears to be inks
on paper, traced from over George Perez original pencils.
There
are no speech balloons, but the art underneath where they were placed on
the produced page is completely consistent with the surroundings,
suggesting it really was traced from the original. However Rick Magyar,
though a respected inker, wasn't the credited inker on this issue (Romeo
Tanghal was) and there are minor stylistic differences between this and
the final version.
A test piece perhaps? I'd love to know more about it.
The original is somewhat dicscoloured, but a little work has restored it to close to what it's original shades must have been.
