Description

A Black Suit Spider-Man piece by Ron Frenz... WooooHoooo!

I am sure his published pieces from ASM #252+ are all out of my budget. So to be able to nab something like this, that has the look & feel of a cover, is super cool in my book. And Firelord looks badass too!

X-Men #105 was the first "old" comic I bought as a kid/new collector and where I first saw Firelord. I would periodically grab various titles he appeared in from then on, eventually coming across ASM #s 269-270 somewhere. Those were my first Black Costume issues and it all snowballed from there.

As a kicker, the piece was also signed by Stan Lee at some point. I know his signature is everywhere but this is the first thing I own that was signed by him. While I'm generally not an autograph guy, it is a pretty neat bonus feature (especially since he didn’t sign the art, which you see a lot).

I had zero expectations of actually winning this auction but am so happy it worked out that I did. Really digging this piece, on multiple levels.

Big nostaglia points being scored all over this one. Tight Frenz pencils. The properly done autographs is a bonus.

Yeah man, it certainly checked a lot of boxes for me!

I was a previous owner, of this steller piece, some time ago. Although I had to

give it up, I'm sure glad to see it went to someone who appreciates as much as

I did. (*and still do*) This 2-part battle against Firelord is my favorite on the Ron Frenz's

run on the title. I've often said that "Amazing Spider-Man"#269-270 is like a

compannion piece to "Amazing Spider-Man"#229-230 where he takes on the Juggernaut.

Both stories show Spidey taking on a foe way beyond his means. And in both instances it's

not only his unique powers, but Spider-Man's courage, ingenuity, perseverance, and ultimate

sense of responsibilty that aid him in winning against such impossible odds. Anyway, a big

congrats on winning something so special and iconic.

p.s. Don't be me. Don't ever give this up. It's way too special.
