Several of the artists featured in this lot, including Wrightson, Kaluta, Windsor Smith, and Jeff Jones, were associated with The Studio, a group of comic book artists working together in New York in the mid to late 1970s.

Dave Sim's Cerebus was an early and important indy comic book series. His F.O.O.G. portfolio was created to support fellow artist Steve Gerber who sewed Marvel in the early 1980s for its use of his character Howard the Duck (now perhaps best known from the 1986 comedy film).
