This is an original art page from What If #1, published by Marvel Comics in February of 1977. This is Pg. 30 from the classic issue featuring the very first Marvel What If, "What If Spider-Man Joined The Fantastic Four?". It is a classic example from a key first issue, with splashy images of Spidey, the Sub-Mariner, the Thing, and the Human Torch. The page not only features all these characters, but has an innovative layout where the panels blend together, giving the page a spectacular visual appeal that has the appearance of a splash page. Signed on back by Jim Craig.

Great, fun page, and so memorable. Playful use of panels, and the breaking of them, to keep the action moving.
