WILL EISNER original
art from INVISIBLE PEOPLE,
“Sanctum” (1992) pg. 29
Title/date/description: This
third-from-last page in “Sanctum,” the 1st chapter
in INVISIBLE PEOPLE, created by
Eisner in 1992, is a lovely
thing to gaze at.
Will Eisner demonstrates his
unsurpassed storytelling techniques as the union
goons kick Pincus Pleatnick out of
their car racing racing along a NJ cliffside. As
he momentarily floats in the air in the 3rd panel, he
reminds us of Gerhard Schnobble, the
equally ill-fated flying man in the September 5, 1948
episode of The Spirit (Eisner's
self-proclaimed favorite).
But in a heartbeat the “flying man” meets a
telephone pole with deadly force. Page 29 on the art
page itself (and page 38 in the Kitchen Sink and DC
Comics editions). Invisible People was the only Eisner
graphic novel that was first serialized in comic books
(three, titled SANCTUM, THE POWER, and MORTAL COMBAT)
and then collected into a single book in 1993.
Size/medium/condition: Blue pencil,
pen, brush, and ink on heavy Bristol board measuring
11 x 14 inches. Eisner’s official studio rubber stamps
on reverse. Excellent condition.
Provenance: Warranted to be from the
Will Eisner estate, which this agency exclusively
represents. There can be no safer or more
certain purchase of Eisner art.
