Um... take a look at Say Yes and Cold Chillin' then look at this print again. See any difference? When you are thirsting in the desert, this looks like you found a waterfall. lol I'd say people are just comparing it to other recent releases and it compares a little better to some eyes. It's a well established fact that we all see art subjectively for our own purposes.

Um... yeah, I understand that this has a more edgy feel to it (see my initial post on page 1), but I still don't think this compares to some of the epic pieces that we're all aware of.

Yes, a nice change of pace, but legendary... I think not. Although, this multi day effort to get the print launched might become a story to tell in months to come.

Im just wondering...will this print go down as the first 3 day attempted drop? I know Hope was two days and peace bomber was pretty much 24 plus hours of insane craziness,(24 hours of no sleep ,then got "banned" from the sale) but this seems like the first 3 day attempted drop. Its a good print, but I defiantely was not expecting this at all!

Not much of a solution on Obey' part..... Too much traffic on a week day release so they'll release it on a Saturday afternoon when they know many folks wont be around. I'll be at the beach.

i dont think they did it on purpose to release it on a saturday , if the original release was a monday , so this 10am release would have happened on a wednesday.....
