Amazing Spider-Man #641 Cover - Spider-Man Brand New Day Omnibus Cover (DM) + O.M.I.T. + Spider-Man: No Way Home

So awesome many and so sorry to see it lost. I hope it turns up for you and the wold to see!

Thank you. I hope so too :(

I had the same happen back in March. This seems to be happening with FedEx a lot lately. 

I've had a lot of issues with FedEx over the last year. Really nervous about some other art they'll be transporting in the next few weeks :/

Fed-Ex are a lousy company. I would not buy from anyone who uses them. Still, hope the artwork shows up.

Hope so. It made it one step away from me (to the sorting facility 15 minutes away) and was immediately loaded on the wrong truck and sent back in the direction it came from.

The folks at the local facility were much more helpful than the standard support line, but it ended up as a "you will know when we find it" sort of situation.

Oh no!! 

Oh no indeed :(

I'm gutted reading this. I hope they eventually get this classic cover back to you. It's truly one of the best.

I appreciate the sentiments. I was given one last sliver of hope a few minutes ago so we'll see, but I'm not holding my breath. Super bummer. Checking my fedex tracking this month felt like watching a museum burn down.

Damn! Wth. Sucks. Sorry Andrew. 

Thank you. Sucks indeed :(

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Damn Andrew. My heart just sank. The greatest fear we all have just happened. I hope it pops up and they magically deliever it.

Thanks, Eric. I do too. There's one more chance tomorrow but at that point I think we've exhausted every option available for finding it :/

This is gut wrenching to hear - I sincerely hope that this finds it way back to you VERY soon!

Thank you, Eric. Super depressing it may be lost forever but I've done everything I can at this point :/

Very sad to hear, hope that it will be found.

Thank you. Maybe one day...

As is Spider-Man, lost in the wild blue yonder. I hope it resurfaces. Good luck!

The irony of it being the story where everyone loses their memory of Peter Parker and MJ lets him go is pretty staggering. Thanks!

Sorry to hear about this happening. Did Mark return the money back becuase it was lost?

Thanks. No, but it was insured so that will hopefully be sorted soon.

damn Andrew - so sorry about this :'(

Thanks, Evan. Definitely not fun :(((

That's tragic! My sincere condolences. I hope that the art reappears at some time in the future and you are able to recover it.

I appreciate it, Bill. Unfortunately I'm pretty pessimistic at this point but stranger things have happened. I hope you're right.

Such a bad story.  At the very least, I hope it was insured.  I love the image.

It was. I guess this already shitty situation could have been worse. It was a great image, I just wish I got to see it in person :/

Oh no! I always wonder... How does that even happen on their end?! Especially with that kind of insured value...

sorry to hear Andrew.  One of our biggest fear in this hobby.  Truly hope you recover this special cover.

Thank you. Unfortunately it seems it is gone for good :(

I love this cover! My heart sank reading this happened. I hope it is found. Any new news 9 days later? 🙏 

Unfortunately the search has ended and it has not been recovered. Incredibly disappointing :(

I'm so so sorry. You can reach out to Paolo and ask if he would be willing do a recreation of it? Even lightbox it to be exactly the same since it seems the Original is gone. Obviously, it would be listed as a recreation somewhere on it (I assume... I do not have any recreations). Once again, my condolences go out to you. 🙏 

Also, what has FedEx even said about them losing it? I pray the insurance process is not a pain.

Thanks, Daniel.

Maybe one day I'll talk to Paolo about it. It feels better to just have days where I forget about it then have a recreation that reminds me it's still missing. 

Luckily it was insured but Fedex was absolutely useless throughout the whole ordeal. 

That's devastating, man. Holding out hope for a last second FedEx miracle save :/

Yeah, doesn't feel great. I was holding out for a miracle but it looks like it's not in the cards. 

That's awful that it hasn't been resolved.  Winning the blind auction is the highest of highs and this is the lowest of lows.  

Yeah it is a pretty low low. Piece is officially gone :(

Devastating, Andrew. Truly a nightmare scenario that just sucks all around. Hopefully your OA karma will have it come back around in some form. :(

Thanks, Paul. It still bums me out everytime I remember this is missing. Maybe one day it will pop up somewhere :/

Great to see on Paolo's IG that this was recovered and finally arrived! Congrats on one of the true modern classic ASM covers. A perfect image. 

Thank you, Casey! Looks like the cat is out of the bag. Super happy to have it in my possession after the rollercoaster of a journey it took to get here XD

They say "all's well that ends well" but I bet they never had a piece or original art go missing for a year! Man, I am beyond excited that this finally, miraculously found its way home. I can't imagine the relief and joy having this in your hands must bring. If only these boxes could talk!

Thank you, Justin! Really appreciate all the words of support over the last year! I am so thrilled to have it in one piece.

CONGRATS!!!!

THANKS!!!! 

I appreciate it, bro ;)

Congrats on the miracle recovery! There's hope for the rest of us

Thank you! Hope indeed :) Sometimes things do work out even when it appears to be a lost cause!

- IN THE PERMANENT COLLECTION OF ANDREW G - 

Happy Endings are the Best. Congrats Man! 

Considering the rollercoaster ride I experienced to get my hands on it, it's definitely a keeper haha

Thank you, Carl!!

Always loved this one with its Coles Phillips homage.  Just incredible that you got it back.  Did they say where they found it?

They did not. They just reached out to the shipper a few weeks ago and essentially said "Hey, so we have this thing in our facility with no tracking information, what should we do with it?" I won't look a gift horse in the mouth. Just wish we didn't use Fedex Next Year delivery XD

Most people don't know the Coles Phillips inspiration. The first image I ever saw by Phillips was a very similar blue of a woman in a spiderweb. It's immediately what I thought of when I saw this. Good catch ;)

Oh my gosh, it's wonderful that it was recovered!!!  Very happy for you, Andrew!

Thank you so much, Margaret! As others have mentioned: I got the happy ending Peter didn't! 

A happy ending fedex story! You have won the lottery!

Yeah, how often does someone have one of those lol? I definitely feel like I used up my good luck for the year on this one -- just waiting for the other shoe to drop....

Thanks for the comment!

Congrats man! So happy for you! 

Aw, thanks J! Much appreciated!

Embrace this cover as tightly as Spidey does to the past.  Now, can you share with us your lottery numbers? 

You got in there first with the lottery number request. Foiled again. Dagnab it.

Haha, will do! I don't know the full number but 6 - 41 should definitely be in it!

That's so awesome that they were able to eventually recover it, very happy for you.  You NEVER hear about an outcome like this.

Thank you, Brian! Yeah, I have never heard of something like this happening. And based on the conversations I had with multiple supervisors at Fedex, none of them had heard of an outcome like this either!

Gorgeous cover! So glad it finally arrived to you and in one piece.

Thank you, George :) I'm glad too! Didn't see this ending coming!

Congrats on the recovery! 

Thank you!

I am SO happy you finally got this in your collection! It is a beauty and this cover made me fall in love with Rivera. 

Thank you, Eric! I very much appreciate that :) Rivera is indeed quite a talent!

Im so happy for you that this has been returned! Major conrats to you for acquiring this amazing piece!

Thank you, David! It's been quite a rollercoaster but all is well that ends well :)

Talk about a Cinderella ending. So happy for you brutha, it's a grail that has found it way back home. Cheers!

Much appreciated! Yeah this was definitely a fairytale ending for a rough journey lol!

So awesome that this piece was found and came back to you, especially with how meaningful it was.  Huge congrats on this beautiful cover!

Thank you, James! Still can't believe it was found to be honest. I have to keep looking at it to convince myself it happened.

Beauitiful cover and amazing story, congrats on the emotional relief and the incredible artwork!

Thank you, Kavi! Much appreciated :)

Simply Gorgeous!

Paolo is quite a talented fellow! Thanks for the comment, Alfredo!

It is a beautiful cover and I am glad it was finally brought to the owner.

You and me both haha ;) Thanks for the comment, Timothy!

So glad it made it back to you. It is an amzing piece and glad it got recovered against all odds.

Against all odds indeed! Thanks, Paul :)

Holy Crap!!! That's awesome, I am overjoyed for you! So did it just show up on your door step one day, or did they email notifiy you that they had found it? Either way, congrats on the happy ending!

Thank you, Jonathan! Fedex never contacted me. They contacted the sender once they found it and asked if they should continue the delivery. He had them send it back to him because he wanted to examine it and we needed to sort everything out with his insurance. I ended up getting it about two weeks after it was found. Had to keep it a secret though until Paolo made his announcement on Insta ;)

YES!!!  Congrats, Andrew.  Now that the adventure is over, it adds to the piece's meaning, I'm sure!  Though I know you never want to do that again.

haha thanks, James! Yeah I absolutely never want to do that again. What are the odds it happens twice, lol? Either way, I'm not risking it, this thing is never traveling anywhere ever again ;)

Today, for no particular reason, I wanted to check in on your collection. A random, unprompted thought. Just wanted to see what you had been up to. The unexpected news that this gorgeous piece has made it to your doorstep? Well...damn! Congrats Andrew. Seriously. Having this in-hand, to be able to soak it in, finally...it must be surreal. Wow. So damn happy for you.

Thanks, bud! Yeah it's been a wild ride, glad it's over haha

Beautiful piece. One of my favorites. Bought a print years ago at nycc which then prompted me to get my first commission which was from Rivera.

Thank you, Thomas. Sorry for the delayed response. I have the piece stored to keep it safe, so I hang the same print up in my home office ;)

You should post the commission!

Wow! Congratulations!!! Did you have to put in a claim? More details please

Thanks, Steve! Sorry, I missed your comment somehow. The dealer put in the claim, and when Fedex out of the blue contacted him to let them know they found it, I needed to pay the insurance company back to have the piece released to me.

This is probably one of the all time nicest covers.

 Thank you, Jerome! It's one of my favorites as well.

Simply one of the best Spider-Man covers of all time. Congrats on picking this up.

Thank you, Victor! It's without question on of my favorite Spidey covers of all time, and I feel super grateful to have it.
