I don't have much art, as I'm fairly new to the hobby and because it can be a very expensive hobby.
Most of my pieces are, however, near and dear to me; not just because the art itself is beautiful, but also because the art was made for me (and in some cases dedicated to me in writing.)

Here are a couple of my favorite pieces:

Punisher by Tony Moore



Hulk/Wolverine by Humberto Ramos



Hulk/Spidey by Humberto Ramos and signed by Stan Lee



Yorick & Ampersand by Pia Guerra



Joker/Harlequin by Lee Bermejo



I also keep a sketchbook handy. The book has probably 150 pages, and I think I have maybe 20 or fewer sketches from different artists in it. Most of them were given to me for free from the artists. Maybe I'll upload pics at some point.
This is something I collect too Have a few sketches by Jim Starlin (just quick ones, not his massively detailed ones), a few by Rufus Dayglo, etc. Also got Frank Quitely to sign my Absolute Superman, was gonna get Grant Morrison to sign it too, but he was massively busy. All of them are lovely guys

Karrie Fransman also drew a sketch of me and Allan in our copy of her book (The House that Groaned) when we met her, she's an awesome lady xx
