Baby brother Sal following in his big brother's footsteps and doing him proud. Great DPS!
Excellent layout by Sal here, with super crisp inks by Grainger. Great example of early S Buscema
A wonderful piece of art!
Huge emotional Impact !
Boy, did I want this piece! I bought this issue off the stand, and was blown away by the story and art.
I know how you feel. That first issue of Avengers (#98 for me) was mindblowing - I was only 10 years old and completed the entire run by age 12.
Andrew, wow, a Sal Buscema masterpice. A glorious DPS. A big bravo to you on a stellar acquisition. If you ever want to sell this, please give me a holler. (Im 58. so don't wait too long) lol
You have an amazing collection Andrew!
LOVED this splash since I was a kid!
What a great splash! Love all the detail and Sal's art. Congratulations!
Great theatre - a lovely sense of space. And how fantastic to get a full roll call of the Avengers gathered together. Great DPS!
Good Lord !!! It's amazing, incredible, outstanding, and.... and.... and just WOW !!!
Great Avenger DPS or THE Greatest Avenger DPS?!!!!
Yes...
Patrick, thanks for this comment! I maybe love the DPS in Avengers 100 by Barry Smith even more, so it made me think - what do these pages have in common? They both set a mood, using the DPS to do so - the vastness of Kang's court and influence in this page and the somber British country side in Avengers 100. Both are the calm before the storm. In both, the characters are simply standing and interacting, not in some frenetic battle scene filling every inch. Emotions between the characters are evident, here with Hank and Jan and in the Avengers 100 the quiet triangle between Wanda, her brother and the Vision. Both, majestic!
Right you are Andrew -- forgot about that one, even though it came up at auction recently. That Windsor-Smith DPS in 100 is truly great as well. Can't think of too many other historic Avengers DPS -- Zodiac intro'd in #72 ....?
Regardless, this spread is a jaw-dropper when you turn the page. Congrats again.
One of my favorite Avengers story. Loved this time period. Congrats on owning this gem.
Fantastic dps
Beautiful DPS, and with many characters!!
WOW!!! What an incredible double page splash- just AMAZING!!!
