Great cover and a nice addition to your Big John gallery ! congrats Bill !!
Very cool action cover. Congrats.
WOW Bill, that's a killer cover! Doc Ock is such a menacing villain!
Love this cover! Congrats!
Bill the first thing you notice is that Border then your eyes are drawn to the characters contained within that border. They are a second away from crashing out and landing in your living room. Three times you mentioned objections that sometimes keep a collector from pouncing on greatness. "It's not out of ASM, blah blah blah." You my friend are the big winner because you put those objections under foot and based the acquisition on the quality and beauty of the art. Bravo my friend....stopped typing to give you a standing O...no kidding! Congratulations Bill.
That's a lovely cover, Bill. I can't help wondering what Ock did to Aunt May. :)
Very beautiful Cover, great great Bill, I love Big John, congartulations
A really beautiful image. Any time you can get a Spidey cover featuring one of his classic rogues, it's a great day!
Definitely well bought! And nice to see John B do Spidey, that's not a combo we see very often. Very cool!
Excellent!
Spidey dealing out some payback! Nice!
Incredible cover - incredible collection - bravo !!!!
That one's a beauty - congrats!
I love it
Wow, I absolutely love this one Bill, congrats!
The cover just screams classic - love Doc Ock and Spidey covers! BJB to boot!
Great cover Bill. Congrats!!
Nicely done, Bill...per usual!
A Bronze Age gem, an all-time great legendary artist, and my favorite character with one of his most iconic arch villains. Now you're just showing off Bill. And you're killing me while you're doing it. LOL
Your collection of covers is astounding...this one is no exception!
Spidey vs Doc Ock, YES !! One of the biggest & longest running rivalries in Spidey lore. And what did Ock do to poor Aunt May? I need to know!
You've hit the freakin' jackpot of late! Good for you; another amazing score!
great cover ! Love it
Marvel Tales was I think the first title I collected, and the early issues introduced me to a lot of silver age goodness.
A great Spidey by Big John -- superb.
Great addition to your collection!
If I only had a nickel for every time I said “blast your thugs and extra arms”.
This is so nice with a sweet Spidey battle and a GREAT shot of Doc Ock! Man, vintage awesomeness for sure. You keep 'em comin', Bill! Congrats!
Marvel Tales is often overlooked but the covers are all brand new depictions of the classic storylines. Who doesn't love a great Spidey vs Doc Ock cover drawn by Big John himself. Keep posting covers like this and we will have to call you Big Bill. Lol.
What can I say - Big John was the greatest draftsman in the history of comics since Lou Fine. John Buscema can draw anyone and anything better than most other artists. I remember this cover fondly since it was the 2nd Marvel Tales I ever bought off the newsstand back in 1972 as an 11 year old. Like most kids that grew up in the 1970s, our first back issues of Spider-man were from reading this title. The same with Marvel Greatest Comics for the Fantastic Four as well as Marvel Superheroes for Hulk and Sub-Mariner from TTA. A fabulous Bronze Age cover with Spidey vs: my favorite Spidey villain - Doc Ock!
Masterpiece by the master of comic book art!!!
Wow! Wow! Wowzers! Spider-man, Doc Oct and Buscema, love it!
Keep them coming! :)
I love these original covers done for Marvel Tales and this is a good one!
