These days, I find myself buying more prints from new emerging galleries than Mondo, which I think has gone down drastically in quality.

Here are 3 prints I got tonight from Hero Complex...

Blade Runner by Kako and Carlos Bela (out of 100)

Alien by Casey Callender (out of 20)

Lolita by Janee Meadows (30x40in) (out of 1)

The picture on that Lolita doesn't give it justice. It is quite nice in person and I got the gallery copy, which is larger than the regular 24x36in version and was only printed once.

Great to see you at the show, T.

Oh I don't mind that. It's a little bit of an artistic touch. What I like is that the credits are in French. That piece called for me.

And Mel, thanks for the picture, I think that will suffice. It's her, it's my piece and there is only one. I'm not one to hunt an artist down for a signature.

Like I said... it was a little, "personal" thing...

The French credits, are, indeed, a very nice touch.

Your post pissed me off, Dave. Especially since I bought the one 30x40in and Janee was selling a 28x40in (with a smaller border, I reckon, but nevertheless...)

I emailed the gallery and got these 2 answers...

"Hmmmm...that's new info for us, we're contacting the artist right now."

and 2 hours later...

"Wanted you to know that Janee removed her listing right after you contacted us...this was her first gallery exhibition and didn't know that she shouldn't do that!"

So all is good. Hero Complex did the right thing.

Agreed, gallery and artist doing the right thing

Yeah, I thought it might be a little upsetting .. so I was pressing the issue a bit on EB and Adam responded right away about them being pulled from that sight. Thankfully it was just a new artist who was not familiar with the way things work with limited edition works and it was easily corrected.

I don't think that version holds a candle to the Astor Theater design.
And, if you own one of these...why bother?

I do... and I bother.

But that's because I need my fix and Mondo has absolutely nothing to offer so I gotta find shit somewhere else.

I really like the Godmachine Astor print, but the Kako print came out a couple of years before it and was the first to use the owl so prominently, so I give it bonus credit for that too. Personally, I think the design of the title and the eye of the owl elevate it above the Godmachine version too. Both are really great though.

I'm with you Ted not even close which one is the better print.

guest8 · « **Reply #739 on:** February 01, 2014, 11:57:15 AM »

I received my kako's last night and OMFG .. they are amazing!! They are a really powerful piece for this film! I cant even pick a favorite between the variants because they are both so good!

As for comparing them to Godmachines print (which I do have as well) and both Ted and Dale are both correct.. there is no comparison in person. The Godmachine print is great but with the detail used the colors the Kako wins out for sure.

My favorite Blade Runner art outside of the John Alvin one-sheet is the Tyler Stout. I do have the Astor version, and that one is my preference over the Kako. But, maybe I am biased.

The detail on the Kako print is amazing, especially the eye with the Tyrell Corporation text. However, composition of the print with the huge title block taking up 2/3 of the space just ruins it for me.

Also, this is essentially the second release of the same artwork from 2008 with little changes. Given a choice, I would rather have the original version.

I am ISO the 1st edition of the Kako too .. if anyone wants to sell that is.
