No one else was going to do it so we decided to build it for us and our community!
Our first promo video about our marketplace
Raremarq was founded in 2022 as the easiest way to get alerts for new listings on original comic art sites. This has helped hundreds of comic fans buy original art from 80+ artists, artist reps, and websites, but we realized the bigger and more important problem to solve was an easier, safer, modern way to buy, sell, auction, and connect over comic art. The Raremarq marketplace launched in 2024 and has quickly become the fastest growing comic art marketplace.
Me with Jim Lee and Frank Cho in 2007
My first memory with my dad was watching X-Men: The Animated Series, and since then, I've loved comics. I've been a collector of original comic art ever since I met Jim Lee and Frank Cho at Supercon 2007.
After building my career working at companies like Marvel, ComiXology, Amazon, and Google, I've decided to build Raremarq to help grow this hobby that I love. I hope you find Raremarq helpful as you buy and/or sell comic art, and if you ever want to reach me, I'm at [email protected]

A valid shipping address and default payment method are required to bid.
Slide the bid slider all the way to the right to make a bid at the suggested amount. Sliding will instantly create a bid, and the next bid amount will be based on the current bid and the next increment:
You can create a max bid to bid automatically for you up to your max bid.
If a bid is made near the end of an auction, the auction end time will be extended by 30 seconds to prevent sniping.
By sliding to bid, you commit to buy the listing if you are the winning bidder. If you are the winner, we will charge your default payment method 24 hours after the auction ends, or you can complete payment early by visiting the order detail page. If your default payment method fails or you fail to make payment for an auction you've won, your account will be at risk of being frozen.
