Wondering if anybody has heard a different term for that first story page. Would be cool to get one of those. Covers are clearly out of my league now.
From back in the day, when page 1 had the credits, I always thought of it as the "Title Page"
Also, I've heard of Grail Pages but don't have it. It's something I need to pick up some day. I'd definitely snag one if I saw it for 50% off.
EDIT: This book is not that expensive, list price was only $16, I got one on Amazon Marketplace for $10 including shipping.

Thanks! That double page from JL: Gen Lost is the biggest coup in my small collection

Here are a couple of pages I picked up directly from artist Colleen Doran on eBay.......
I really like how she draws faces, so it's relatively inexpensive to get pages that have some good faces & no super-heroes in costumes. I'd love to get a nice page from "A Distant Soil" some day.......
Colleen Doran (pencils) + Terry Austin (inks): Power Pack #2 p.11
Colleen Doran (pencils) + Bob Wiacek (inks): Reign of the Zodiac #4 p.10

I can see a lot of Maguire in her faces -- great expressions. Awesome stuff.

Picked up a commission from Nick Pitarra. He was nice enough to include a remarked Red Wing #1 too!
