Holy smokes. Now when you see a cover like this your first reaction is to think there is no way that’s the real thing. Bravo!

Sam - that is one of the most beautiful covers I've ever seen as original art.
Congrats!

Owned the art for only 33 years, been a CAF member for only 12 years, and you're ALREADY sharing this with us? Whoa, slow down, Sam, you gotta make people wait a little before you "Release the Kraken!" ☺

Beautiful cover! Love the inks! I’m trying not to imagine all the great art I could have had if I started buying in 1986!!

What a great buy!!!! Congrats on having the good sense to pay Albert the money and of course, this is a great example.

Striking cover by this legendary duo, and a little piece of Marvel history! 400 bucks were a princely sum back in the mid '80s, but now they're a fraction of what you need for a mere sketch

Terrific cover!! Frank Miller was selling his covers for $100 at that time so Albert made a nifty profit and you were wise enough to keep your cover all these years. So many of us were not. Great great piece- congrats!!!

Fantastic cover! I'm sure people are thinking wow $400 for this is a steal but I am sure back in 1986 it wasn't. Great textures Janson added in the inking.

I haven't seen this one in person. Nevertheless I can be sure the scan here in no way comes close to detailing the vibrancy of God kissed hand to page art you have here. Cheers!

If only I had been so wise back in 1983 - great cover, congrats not only on buying it but also keeping it!

400 dollars was a lot of money in 1986. A high copy of Spider-Man one could have been bought for those bucks!

Cool cover. It reminds me of Frank's first published work in Twilight Zone.
