Description

This splash is one of those pages you just can't help but stare at for hours. I've been doing that for a week straight. I wonder if I'll ever stop. It's insanely detailed and beautiful – telling a heartbreaking story in one page. Wow.

Hunting for key pages from this original run hasn't been easy. The most impressive and memorable pages have either already been purchased, or are in Sean's retirement collection. This one just happened to pop up at the now famous Metropolis show and I had to have it. When I first saw it, while reading issue one, I dreamed of owning it. I've been pinching myself because I still can't believe it's in my collection.

Congratulations on picking up this page!  It's great you were able to pick up a page that you've wanted since seeing the comic, and this is a pretty fantastic splash montage too.

100% agree. A Spidey/Wolverine team up with maybe a little Punisher or Daredevil? hmmmm...
