Superior Spider-Man #28 Variant Cover

Wonderful cover by David Marquez of 2 iconic characters re-imagined in a classic mid air battle. Part 2 of 5 of the Goblin Nation story line this is the variant cover of issue 28. Davids fine line work in the details of the 2 characters juxtapose lovely with the chaotic smoke emitted from the Goblin Glyder. The 2 figures contour gracefully locked in a heated battle. It reminds me of what Kubrick was going for with Full Metal Jacket. It is the battle of order vs chaos. The first half visually was all about clean lines and order reflective of the US Marines discipline. Then it jumps to the second half in the trenches of Vietnam with dynamic camera work and the fog of war. Below is a link to a great article on the subject of the movie for anyone who is interested. http://www.stevenkeating.info/Steven_Keating/Steven_Keatings_Portfolio_(Flash_Site)_ files/The_Balance_of_Order_and_Chaos_in_Full_Metal_Jacket.pdf
