Description

Vintage Marvel Magic from 1968 by one of the masters Gene Colan with inks by Frank Giacoia (interiors are inked by Vince Colletta)

I am primarily a panel page collector, but I admit covers are covers - and, who wouldn't like to have more covers.

I remember this one well with its prominent yellow background and dominating central Medusa figure so when I saw this was available, I made a rapid inquiry and buy decision despite it being a bit of a budget buster for me. The cover presents super clean despite it having original art pasteups.

I have had a few panel pages but didn't imagine I would own the cover so it has been a Medusa year for me with this and earlier a top-tier panel page.

I will be adding more art to this theme gallery but it is safe that this will be the highlight!

Marvel magic is right! As someone who has yet to find a Colan example, you can color me twelve shades of jealous. Being a splash and cover guy myself, if you ever find yourself feeling like this doesn't really fit in your panel-centric collection, I would be more than happy to give it a good home. Haha! Seriously though, congrats on this absolute gem of a Colan cover.

One of the classic Marvel Super-Heroes books and always stops you in your tracks when you come across a copy of the comic book with how memorable it is!
