Description

Got my Stegman cover and it’s a nice one! Looks a little familiar I think…

When I saw the solicitation for this cover I hoped I’d have a shot at picking it up. The Superior Spider-Man #1 cover that it’s based on is awesome – I don’t know where that went but thought this would be…wait…was going to say the next best thing but I think this one is just as nice!

Stegman used the layout from Superior Spider-Man #1, modified his pencils, and then inked it. Reminded me of Spider-Man #’s 1 and 13 by McFarlane – a Spidey first issue with the exact cover used for a later book but with a different costume.

Very cool imagery – definitely a more ominous tone that I think might match Kaine and the Scarlet Spider outfit more? Then again the original is the original and I really do like the lighting on that one…hmmm…I’ll leave it up to y’all. Images of both published covers included below.

Either way, both are great pieces and I’m happy to own this one. Thanks Ryan and Paolo.

So you're the lucky one who got this. I think it is one of the most dynamic Spidey covers in recent years. It definitely emphasizes the darker tone of the new Spider-man. Congrats!

Thanks, D. Liked Ryan's work since he started interiors for Scarlet Spider but you're right, he's consistently improving which may be why you're liking his work more and more.

Great three-dimensional depth that offers the prospect of the spider web.

Holy crackers and cheese, how did I miss this one?!? This is one of my very favorite Stegman Scarlet Spider covers. Of course the homage is cool, but Stegman really captures the more insectoid qualities of the character, plus the inking is so bold and energetic. Congrats!!

Totally agree, Riz! You've mentioned to me before how you dig this cover. Still one of Steg's best I'd say and right up there with the original! Thanks for the comment!

Yup, egzzzactly!  Tha's what I liked about the original Superior Spidey 1 cover and this one!  Definitely played up the spidery aspects to great effect, like a certain Mr. McFarlane used to do :)  Thanks for the comments, man!
