Human Torch vs. Sub-Mariner battles have been a staple of the Marvel Universe since well before it was the Marvel Univese, and this page is a one of the greats. The Fantastic Four had already been cemented as one of the greatest, and most significant superhero comics ever, and this scene does nothing to hurt and plenty to help that stature. Bravo, Nick! Another wonderful page!
What a great, powerful cover image, Nick! The Absorbing Man has to be one of the most successful oddball villains ever, and he rarely (if ever) seemed to posses more intimidating power than he did in this piece. Fantastic vintage Thor, hammer ready to swing, kinetic energy ready to burst forth. Tremendous piece and a wonderful addition to your collection.
What a great bit of history! So glad you are its custodian!
Al Williamson is never the first inker I think of when it comes to Daredevil, but virtually every time he had anything to do with the character the results were magic (I can think of only one time I think he phoned it in). And Williamson inking Lee Weeks? What an awesome combo! Thanks for sharing this one.
What a great cover! I have a real soft spot for Spectacular Spider-Man to start with, but then when you add Sal into the mix it's a home run.
Ron Garney and Tom Palmer is a team I'd like to see A LOT more from. This is a killer piece, Jason!
Jason - My collection is small, but it has some very cool stuff in it. With just a few exceptions, almost all the pieces are something to which I have a personal connection of some sort. I've been fortunate to know so many talented folks.
Thanks, Nick. I've been a Steve Epting fan since he was doing the Judah Macabee back-ups in Nexus. No kidding!
Dean - Thanks so much. I've been a big fan of Amanda's for a long time -- I conducted what was probably her first interview -- and was thrilled to hire her to do the Supergirl/Batgirl cover for The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide #41. And she and Jimmy are great folks on top of that.
