Spectacular Spider-Man #32 cover. 1st appearance of the Iguana! Classic cover with Spidey perched on a wall with his SpiderBelt casting a light on the Iguana.

What I really like is the deep solid inking on this cover!

Man, does Spidey have an unhealthy relationship with reptiles!  Another nice add to your buddy museum!

The Iguana has an Alien-esque feel to it. And maybe not by chance, given that the movie was released just two months before this book! Congrats on another fantastic cover!

LIke you, I love Bronze age art.  Better than Silver age art and just as nostalgic.  Congrats West.

Now that you have a Lizard knock off  for your burgeoning comic pet collection, you can send me your unwanted cat, Tigra, as a present.

I said Iguana be startin' somethin'
Iguana be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna have Layton somethin'
Iguana be startin' somethin'

It's too high to get Peter (yeah, yeah)
Too low to get Parker (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the Reptile (yeah, yeah)
And Layton art wonder (yeah, yeah)
It's too high to get cover (yeah, yeah)
Cool flow that’s all over (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the Reptile (yeah, yeah)
And the name Iguana (yeah, yeah)

I took my Spidey to Iguana
With a cover, but nothin' he found
By the time this hit the street
They said Bob did the breakdowns

Someone's always tryin'
To start my Spidey webbin'
Talkin', crawlin', fightin'
Sayin' Iguana be startin' somethin'

Stunning cover, congrats! We had this random issue at my house as a kid. Always loved this one.

I never read this issue, so I have to admit that I never knew until right now that this WASN'T an appearance by The Lizard! I know there are differences, but I just figured Bob took artistic license. Either way, cool art!

Iconic wall crawling pose with a reptile, and it's from fairly early in the run. Spectacular cover indeed!

Here in South Florida, when it gets cold, iguanas fall from the trees.  Imagine this huge one coming down at ya!  Great cover.  Love the lighting!

Awesome Spider-Man cover! Love Layton's layout here. And the heavy black silhouette of the Iguana really makes the cover!
