Love this image...He's got the whole world in his hands!  Which is fitting, because he created that particular world.  Beautiful cover!

Many thanks once again, CJ, for your kind words. This is a really, really great painting by JR Sr.

I read somewhere a long time ago that Stan was ready to quit the business, and his wife suggested, before he goes, that he throw his Spider-Man idea out there to see what would happen.  Anyone know if that is true?

Great JR SR painting!  This is surely one to be proud of.

Many thanks, Steven. With Stan, one never knows what actually transpired!

Many thanks, Toni. It is indeed. Stan could be controversial but he was certainly a giant of comics.
