Description

"Hail Avengers!" Thor and Iron Man greet their fellow Avengers after arriving to a meeting of Earth's Mightiest Heroes on this classic title splash by John Buscema and Tom Palmer. Captain America, Goliath, Vision, Quicksilver, and Scarlet Witch have growing concerns after the Black Panther is captured by M'Baku. Bronze Avengers title splashes are so hard to find so I'm thrilled to get this.

Three things have been difficult to tame: the oceans, fools and women. We may soon be able to tame the oceans; fools and women will take a little longer.

Great way to show a team meeting and have the casual clubhouse feel! The layout and depth to the scene makes you feel part of the Avengers!

It's impossible to look back over the careers of Buscema and Colan without recognizing the role that Palmer played in them.  A grand splash and a magnificent example.  Congrats Dino!

Love this one Dino. The image is burned into my memory. Tom Palmers dry brush techniques on Iron Mans armor made a huge impression on me when I was 12 years old, that it's a technique that I stole and used for decades in my own inking work.

Stunning splash! And a humorous '70s political reference as well!  Love having Thor and Iron Man in the foreground there.  Lends a lot of (much deserved) power to their images.

Glorious Bronze Age splash! Gorgeous drawing by John Buscema. Love the forced perspective with Thor and Iron Man up close and the rest of the team much further away! And Palmer's inks are splendid as always! Fabulous pick-up--Congrats, Dino!

An exceptional page! It's not often you see a page that drops a "lo" and "mirth" ... and not something I expect we will see again. Congrats Dino - love this one!
