DescriptionThis was a personal grail and I can't believe I actually found it. When I was a kid I inherited my uncle's comic book collection from the '70s. This story made the greatest impression on me. "Am I Now ... or Have I Ever Been?" It was a crazy vision of the future -- stoned youths wandering the ruins of NYC with strange cubes. The first person Spidey encounters is Deathlok, and he was the coolest thing I had ever seen. Half man, half machine, Deathlok had no illusions of heroism. On this page, Spiderman intervenes to stop Deathlok from killing a bunch of kids -- who turn out to be the real threat.Anyway, I was playing AD&D on a Tuesday and I was browsing the web and I somehow magically came across an auction for this page ending in 4 days. I was equally surprised when I won the auction despite several other strong bidders. This was one of the top 3 pieces of art I wanted but never dreamed I'd get. There are still surprises in this hobby. Social/Sharing |

These early pages of stories in MTU are always cool as the plot demands that the heroes fight amongst themselves before the actual teaming up.

It's true that every time a comic art collector acquires a long sought grail, you hear a bell, and an angel gets his wings. Congrats!
