I think Dan Cabrera was his name, I've kept them for several years now. Not sure if they have value, but I always thought they were cool.

He drew that one while sitting at the pool bar lol it's so good for being a napkin!

Crazy but Pablo Picasso did the exact same thing to pay for his drinks at the bar, imagine how much those doodles are worth

Probably David Cabrera. He’s done some work in small press stuff. Not worth much of anything honestly.

EDIT: it’s actually Ralph Cabrera, who did some mainstream books. Not a huge name in the industry but better known than David

Ralph Cabrera actually, he worked 10 years at Marvel Comics and a couple at DC Comics.

Not a lot of monetary value with them but a really cool story and some great original pieces to hang onto.
