Grail Hunters Comic Podcast S05E04 - Collecting Original Comic Art with special guest Royd Burgoyne

  • Summary

  • We promised big things for this episode and Royd delivered!!

    In this episode, we are joined by Grail Hunters Australia member, comic and original art collector, Royd Burgoyne! For close to 15 years Royd's worked with Supanova Comic-Con & Gaming to recruit and host international comic artists during Australian events. The list of talent he's worked with is longer than Neville's.... we'll. It's very long.

    Royd starts by reflecting on his first purchases back in the 80's, and how, when he got hooked on original comic art (not to mention his loving partner playing part in his first purchase! It was literally the dark ages, pre internet and Royd talks about how he found the artists, formed relationships across the pond, and how those relationships became not only the foundation of what he does at Supanova but also his personal collection.

    Ben and Neville get lost in the 'what-if's of original art collecting, before Royd shows off and talks through some of his favourite pieces and stories behind them (eg. John Byrne Shanna, Ashley Wood pieces etc.) and then generously offers advice on sourcing and collecting original art, published pages and commissions.

    We then discuss tips about displaying and storing artwork before jumping into assessing value of art pieces both personal and market value and discuss how personalising art impacts value

    To be honest, we could have gone for hours, and we'd love to have Royd back for a part two where we can field members questions! As always, sit back, crack a beer and enjoy the show.
