Black Tower Animation? Oh -and speculation!

I posted previously about "speculation" on Black Tower Comics and Books due to the only printed on demand and therefore "rarity and collectability for investment" (as someone put it).

I have now had four offers in the last two weeks and they all follow along the same lines. I ought to point out that "animation cells" may have come about as I have posted previously about the failed Paranormals animated series.  Apart from a company in Germany called "ADV" (no longer in existence) who wanted to look at developing D-Gruppe I have never been involved in animation.

I have tons of art pages but these are not like American comic book boards. Also, the expense with taxes and postal/courier charges to get just ten pages to the US is waaaaay too high.

"I wanted to reach out to you following recent investment speculation online regarding Black Tower. I wanted to see if you might have any animation or comic art for sale. I'm looking for comic pages, cells from your animated sereies, pencil art, hand painted background art, model sheets, storyboards, concept art, model packs, proofs, illustrations, even scripts. We have purchased 31 million popular culture items including 12 million animation & comic book art pieces since 2000."

"A similar one was phrased almost the same but looking at the people involved it seems to be two separate companies:"

"Hi, Terry

"I wanted to reach out to see if you might have any animation or comic art for sale. I'm looking for comic pages, cels, pencil art, hand painted background art, model sheets, storyboards, concept art, model packs, proofs, illustrations, even scripts. We have purchased 51 million popular culture items including 12 million animation & comic book art pieces since 2000.

"I've been in the comic book industry for over 50 years, our company, Pop-King Inc purchased the Filmation, DiC, & Nelvana Studio Animation Archives. We have also purchased inventory directly from 300 animation artists and am currently looking for sketches/convention style drawings. I would love to be in business with you."

Notice no requests to purchase my underwear.  No offers for worn down pencils, clogged up brushes or old ink pots. 

I'm insulted.  I am THAT person who would sooner people buy books while they still exist since  the online store will eventually close and the books will be gone -you won't even find them on Ebay😖
