Description

Without a doubt one of the most iconic Spidey covers of the 80's. Looks as fresh today as it was then. Prelim's to me are so significant because they signal the birth of an idea. The very first time that an artist brings a concept to life on paper. It's very special and in some ways more than the final. Thou this one is so close to published version, they are almost one and the same. I feel lucky to be the next owner of this piece. Thanks Jonathan.
