Kurt Cobain's MTV Unplugged Guitar Sells For Record $6 Million

One of the most coveted gems in the grunge era sold for an unprecedented $6 million at auction. Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain used the 1959 Martin D-18E guitar during the band's acoustic performance on MTV Unplugged on November 18, 1993. Five months following the episode, the singer-songwriter took his own life from a self-inflicted gunshot at the age of 27. Their Unplugged appearance was released as a live album. The guitar was sold to Australian Peter Freedman, owner of Røde Microphones, at Julien's Auctions in Beverly Hills, California. Cobain played "About A Girl" from their debut album Bleach and "All Apologies" from their final studio album In Utero.

How the Nirvana Frontman's Guitar Compared to Other Auction Items

By comparison, a custom blue guitar used by Prince at the height of his stardom in the 80s and 90s including his 1984 Purple Rain tour sold for $563,500. Cobain's guitar was originally slated to sell in the range of $100,000-$200,000. The band scored 10 top 40 hits on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart, including five No. 1s and four No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200. They also won several Grammys, American Music Awards, and MTV Music Video Awards. Four of Nirvana's songs ("All Apologies", "Come As You Are", "In Bloom", and "Smells Like Teen Spirit") reached Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time." In addition to In Utero and Unplugged, the band's most successful album Nevermind reached the publication's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time." Cobain and bassist Krist Novoselic founded Nirvana in 1987 with Aaron Burckhard on drums. The following year, Burckhard left and the band went through multiple drummers until 1990 when they settled on Dave Grohl. That lineup with guitarist Pat Smear was the one inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility in 2014 with Cobain's widow Courtney Love there to accept on her husband's behalf.

Funko Announces Loki Mystery Box for Free Comic Book Summer

Last year we were teased with an upcoming Funko Mystery Box for Free Comic Book Day. With Free Comic Book Day postponed it looks like Funko has unveiled the contents of the boxes. Loki takes center stage with this box and will have three different boxes available. Each box will contain the new Funko mold showcasing modern Loki holding Mjolnir. There will be three mystery boxes each will have a different comic variant and different Pop Tee. Each design is very well done and will be a nice extra for these mystery boxes. The comic book is spaced out with ratios with the virgin Loki cover being 1:4 and the purple variant brings 1:10. Funko has included even more bonuses in these boxes too as collectors can find a  1 of 25 Golden Ticket. Each golden ticket will be redeemable for special Prize Pack that can include Funko protos. On top of that fans will have a chance to win 1 out of 12 signed Pops from Funko CEO Brian Mariotti.

These Funko Mystery Boxes are packed with a nice variety of collectibles. I like how the comics and the shirts are random in each instead of multiple Funko Pops. Each design is perfect for any Loki fan and some might want to buy all three. I'm curious about what some of these prize packs will include and they seem like they will be very exclusive. With the cancellation of Funko Fundays, this seems like a great and fun way to give out prizes in time like this. these boxes will be $34.99 and you can lock down yours at your local comic shop. Free Comic Book Summer starts July 15 and they will hit comic book stores then. Check out the Funko Blog for the official reveal here. What comic variant and shirt are you looking forward to the most??

Funko and Good Smile Lock In Rainbow Six Siege/Assassin's Creed Deal

Hit collectibles company's Funko and Good Smile Company have locked down a multi year deal. This deal is with video game company Ubisoft as they try to extend their content into the collectibles world. The deal gives licenses of some of their hit games Assassin's Creed and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege to allow new collectibles to be made. For Funko, fans can expect to see the whole line up of Rainbow Six Operators get pop-ified in the near future. This deal also includes the development of Funko Pop Tees featuring some of these franchise characters. We have already seen a couple Assassin's Creed Funko Pops in the past but now it looks like we could see some of the games newer protagonists enter from games like Assassin's Creed: Origins and the upcoming Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. It will be nice to see newly updated Pop molds for some of these new characters and maybe some old remakes. I am more excited to get some Rainbow Six Siege collectibles that will bring some of our favorite Operators to life. These upcoming collectibles will from Funko will start to come out instore and online in early 2021.

Good Smile Company also haze secures a deal with Ubisoft too. Good Smile Company has both Nendoroid and figma designs in mind with this new deal. Both of these designs already be amazing as Good Smile Company really has its collectibles game on point. The figma Assassin Creed figures will be something else and I hope we can see some new ones from Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and maybe an Altair. The Nendoroid line is perfect for Rainbow Six Siege and it'll be nice to see some classic operators like Ash, IQ, and Doc. It will be exciting to see what both of these companies have planned for these licenses. Both know what they are doing so fans of these series should get very excited to see what is just around the corner. Just check out all of the new line up of Rainbow Six Siege Operators that could be getting collectibles here.

Leatherface Gets Dolled Up in New Sexy Kotobukiya Horror Statue

Kotobukiya is at it again with another gender swapped redesigned statue of another classic horror icon. This one is a massacre as we are traveling to Texas to see the one and only Leatherface. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre slasher is back and she is ready to play a little rough. Kotobukiya has recently shown off their next addition to their highly popular and seductive Horror Bishoujo line. The statue completely redesigns the killer Leatherface as a female in a very skimpy outfit. She will be carrying a bloody chainsaw and she will also be covered in blood too. It looks like as an added bonus, collectors will be also getting a removable skin mask accessory for her. This adds a whole new terrifying ingredient to this horror statue and any Leatherface and Texas Chainsaw Massacre fan will love to add this piece to their collection.

The Horror Bishoujo Kotobukiya is a truly unique statue series. The gender swapped aspect is a very interesting touch that makes these collectibles stand out. The detail and design on these pieces are pretty amazing even if it shows the curves you never wanted to see of Leatherface. I would love to see a blood splattered version of this statue and they could even limit the same way Funko use to do their bloody variants. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Leatherface Horror Bishoujo Statue from Kotobukiya will be located here when she finally goes live. Don't forget to check out some of the already released Horror Bishoujo statues like Jason, Freddy, and Chucky. Or put in pre-order for the recently announced Pennywise and Beetlejuice before they sell out.

"LEATHERFACE, the cannibalistic butcher with an aptitude for handling a chainsaw is the newest entry in Kotobukiya's HORROR BISHOUJO series. As an added bonus she includes a removable human skin mask accessory!"

Eric Stephenson Talks Jim Lee, Obliquely – Daily LITG 13th June 2020

The world seems like a terrible and strange place sometimes, but fandom still brings us together. Or at least gives us someone to unite against. These are strange times, but The Daily LITG is becoming a valuable way to quantify just what comic book geek culture is up to in this time of trial. Including a leaked letter from Eric Stephenson to Image Comics creators about DC Comics. Welcome all, to the daily Lying In The Gutters, a long-running run around the day before and the day ahead. You can sign up to receive it as an e-mail here.

Eric Stephenson Talks Jim Lee, Obliquely – Daily LITG 13th June 2020.

Eric Stephenson and the ten most-read stories yesterday

It must be said that Image Comics publisher Eric Stephenson's written assault against DC Comics, leaked to Bleeding Cool yesterday and followed up everywhere must have been particularly hard for DC publisher Jim Lee, co-founder of Image Comics, to read. And was probably the true intended audience. Here's what else people were reading yesterday.

  1. "Hasty, Sociopathic Decisions" – Image Comics' Publisher On DC Comics
  2. Death Metal Gets Spinoffs in DC Comics September 2020 Solicitations
  3. One Hundred Marvel Comics By Black Creators, For Free
  4. DC Comics Has News For Comics Shops, in the USA and Abroad
  5. The Mandalorian and The Child Go 10" With New Funko Pop
  6. When Harley Quinn Had Her Killing Joke Moment in Birds Of Prey
  7. Dennis O'Neil, Comic Book Legend, Dies at 81
  8. When Rob Liefeld Predicted Collapse of DC – Daily LITG 12th June 2020
  9. Marvel Launches New Iron Man #1 by Christopher Cantwell and CAFU
  10. Batman Gets a Memorial Statue from Beast Kingdom

 It was all about Rob Liefeld a year ago…

We were reminded of when Rob Liefeld was predicting the imminent fall of DC Comics and the Image Comics that never happened, if it was there at all.

Comic Book Events happening today

There would also have been signings, appearances, symposia, all manner of comic book-related events. But a few have gone online, and here are some still happening today, on the Daily LITG.

Comic Book birthdays today

There may not be much of a party atmosphere right now. All depends on which state you are living in. But comic folk are still getting older and still celebrating that special date. With eleven years for us as well.

The Mandalorian and The Child Go 10" With New Funko Pop

Ever since the debut of The Mandalorian on Disney+ fans have been in love with these characters. The introduction of this mysterious bounty hunter and the Child have created a whole new influx of collectibles. The rush for The Child products was the biggest push since the introduction of the character was kept so much under wraps. The collectibles still continue after all this time but now it's the push for as much Beskar Armor Mandalorian collectibles as possible. Funko has been staying quite up to date with these new characters and mold with a couple of new waves of figures. Just when we thought they were out of ideas it looks like there is a new 10" figure heading our way. This 10" is set as a common release and will show off both The Mandalorian and The Child. He will be holding his little space companion in this Funko Pop while carrying the shine of his new armor. This will be a nice collectible for any fan of the series and the larger details on this figure are just right for any Mandalorian fan.

This is a Funko Pop design that has not even got a normal-sized figure yet. I hope we can see a normal version of this mold in the future though. The new Star Wars The Mandalorian with The Child 10" Funko Pop will be priced at $34.99. He is expected to release in October 2020 and pre-orders are already live and can be found located here. I doubt this will be the last Mandalorian Funko Pop we will see and I'm sure we will also be seeing plenty more of The Child too. What other characters do you think deserve to be added to this figure line in the future?
