(via ComicArtFans): Green Lantern artist Brent Anderson‘s car was broken into while at the San Diego Zoo during the San Diego ComicCon week and many pages of original art were stolen.

The artists is putting out an appeal far and wide for help retrieving the pages, so we’re doing our bit to alert comic art dealers and collectors about the theft, given the huge number of places online this art may turn up for sale
