Hero Complex Gallery News & Rumors thread

I know I can't everything, I just have not realized it yet.

This hobby is a lot of fun when you realize you can't have everything, you don't need everything, and there is always another Stout.

Might even be REAL SOON.

My take-a-way from this as a person only a year and a half into the hobby is that while it's great that HCG is working with "top artists" shouldn't it's purpose to bring attention to the gallery and their art output as opposed to who's art their outputting? The brief I've read I feel like this more about Stout and secret prints than about HCG and their direction of selling quality prints from top talent. Also shouldn't they feel that everything they produce is "Elite'"? I don't trust secrets and even less so when you're asking me to fork over 4 bills.

From what I've learned with what Mondo does is that there is an actual 'art direction' involved that makes each piece inherently "Mondo's". This is just a continuation of a series that started with Mondo. Though I don't know what's involved with Stout's overall protocol. Does he just do what he does or is there someone guiding him through a process for that license?

But I digress, I'm still new to this.

Ours is not to understand. Ours is to buy

[glenn1]

ok ok.... serious question here... what did you guys all just buy? or what do you THINK you bought?

People know they bought a Stout, a Delort, and a mystery print. People think the Stout is Age of Ultron.

That's literally it.

It all doesn't matter, we'll see what's what in due time and there's apparently some big convention this weekend to look forward to.

Why do people know they bought a Stout? The announcement that people linked to said Jock and Delort.

[toobs]

No official announcement of Stout Avenger AoU being in the EE sets, jus pure speculation right now

The email you saw links to was the OLD original announcement for the "Elite Editions" project. It stated that they would working with artists like Jock, Delort and others yet to be announced. That email was sent months ago.

The EB rumor mill is saying that there was ANOTHER email that went out yesterday to a select list of VIPs, in which, it stated Stout, Delort and another mystery artist. Again, that's the rumor.

Good lord.

Well they had the cast and crew variant printed for last night's event, HCG's said they're shipping things after they get back from NYCC, and that combination of factors would either speak to AoU being the EE Stout or HCG having TWO Stouts ready to go.

best part of all of this is less then 24 hours ago a ton people were chittin on HCG and now they up on dat dick fuggin posers

[jeter0204]

FFS someone just post the email and end this already. Cat is out of the bag. Can't imagine Stout did 2 Officially-LIcensed prints for HCG so it has to be AoU

[Cinlabyrinth]

I dunno, I'm sure there are still quite a few people wondering where their Drake mysteries and Pixar sets are.

[TheBeard]

Remember when you bought art because you liked the way that particular piece of art looked?
