Fight fire with fire! Really cool page
Hmmm... a spider-man page... I can only assume a session in Ravenloft or a MTG game going on in the copter.
Shriek? Demogoblin? One of my favorite 90s crossovers. Congrats
Demogoblin a true child of the 90s!
Triple J and Demogoblin for the win! This page definitely hits in regard to nostalgia factotr. I'm not afraid to admit I was part of the symbiote generation, especially the Maximum Carnage series. Wonderful page Steve, and it's by Sal!!!
90's Nostalgia overload! The emotional state of JJJ gets stronger as each traumatizing scene plays out from his memory!
I thought it was Jameson at first too, but remembered it's Peter's (clone) pops!
Gonna need a scorecard pretty soon.
Sal belongs in the Spider-Man Artists Hall of Fame. Great pickup!
Right on, man, got some Shriek and some Demogoblin but good ol' Spectacular Sal! And wasn't Maximum Carnage just the maximum '90s story?! Congrats!
Wow! Very cool Spectacular Spider-Man page! Gorgeous work by Sal Buscema! I love the storyline on this page with Peter's (clone) father telling him to look out for himself instead of others--the opposite of what Uncle Ben had taught him! I also like the rough borders around the backstory elements. Just a terrific page all around!
Great page, full of bad guys! I like the way the feel of anguish and drama is enhanced by the composition of the page.
Gotta appreciate all the great expressions and page layout. Sal's artistic confidence is really on display here!
Sal changed his style several times in his career, and in this simpler, almost scratchily inked period, he really showed everything he had learned about composition. He kept his characteristic three-panel story exposition with the faces on the left, but shows perfect placement of the helicopter and sideways glance in the top right panel, and the brilliant explosion in the bottom right. That's a really nice page.
Love this analysis!
