Man, killing it with first appearances that are truly meaningful!  Fantastic page from another comic that had a major impact on the direction of the medium and the types of characters it features.  And also, just a great page of explosive comic art!  Ross Andru is underrated--love his storytelling and choreography on this page.  Great stuff!

WOW.  There are first appearances, and there are first appearances--truly historic example from a foundational comic book.  If you really think about it, the impact that Daredevil has had on the comic book medium is massive--there's likely no Dark Knight Returns without Daredevil!  Historical context aside, this is also a stunning page of comic art--really beautiful Bill Everett art, particularly the inking.  Congrats!

Paul Smith's most iconic piece of non-X artwork; and one of the most gorgeous images of the good doctor created, which is high praise given the legendary artists we all associate with the character.  Congrats!

Awesome page!! Was exciting to see JRJR do DD again, that the time (and with Williamson inks!). Congrats!

Excellent page from the period that many consider to be a high point for Byrne's FF art--early in the run when he was inking himself and putting a lot of attention into his linework.  That panel of Sue in the upper right is so beautiful; and so much texture and detail across the page to look at.  Congrats!

GORGEOUS page--along with that original She-Hulk run being charming and hilarious, it also was beautifully drawn by Byrne and Wiacek.  The detail to Shulkie's hair, her expressiveness across panels, all the background detail and fuzziness of Xemnu--all so spectacular!  Excellent page.

Great FF page with all four heroes using their powers--but of course what Kirby expertly draws our eye to is that great last panel with Doom.  So cool!

Great page--love the layout and the reflections on the globe thing; and great shots of the kids together.  Nice!  Always liked how the PP kids acted like real kids.

Awesome piece! I love this series, Typhoid is at her twisted best when written by her creator, Ann Nocenti; and Van Fleet's artwork is incredible--aggresive, a little scary, but still delicate and beautiful. 

Lovely--Nowlan has still got it.  Congrats!

This is awesome!  I was a true blue Marvel fan as a kid but couldn't deny the appeal of JGL's clean-line approach.  Not that I knew it was from him, but when I saw this type of art on stickers, Hallmark cards, Underoos etc., it always looked so great.  Big time nostalgia factor with this one--congrats!

Wow, iconic, memorable, gorgeous piece of art.  One of my favorite characters, from a favorite '80s story--this ticks all the boxes.  The inking of the lightning effects has such a strong Simonson vibe--I wondered if he maybe had something to do with the page; but maybe more likely it's Art or Rubinstein paying him homage.  Truly awesome page--congrats!

Gorgeous delicate Fraz example--congrats!

This was a favorite book of mine as a kid--in part because the story felt so adult; some heavy, challenging stuff.  Love how this page grounds the story in such a rich, populated real-world setting.  That's what Marvel was all about--feels like we've lost that vibe in today's comics; you can hear the carn horns and sounds of the street coming off the page.

Beautiful example of Miller's high contrast black and white art style, which blew us all away at the time--really had never seen anything like it.  And something so cool about having the thinly lettered "Episode 7 by Frank Miller" text on the page.  Big congrats!

Gorgeous--love her expression.  Her eyes really get me--beautiful work.

Iconic example of Paul Smith's unique style--and would be a stunning piece of comic art even if it wasn't a classic image that we all remember.

Sometimes we get a little numb to the historical signifcance of these classic pages--but think about the impact that the X-Men has had on the world of comic books and popular culture in general; and then think about how that franchise traces back through 60+ years and millions of pages, back to 1963 when it was all new, and there had only been one issue published before this one.  Must be incredible to hold this page in your hands--and putting historic significance aside, it's a classic example of the unique and charming storytelling mastery of Jack Kirby.  The camera flip in the last two panels is both sublime and so much fun!

Something poetic about this page in particular rolling its way back to you--congrats!  So many classic Kirby elements here, it's a fantastic example.

Wow!  Classic, iconic, pure Marvel magic.  Congrats!

The Pacheco/Merino artwork in this series is so beautiful--incredible linework, especially in the characters' hair and other fine details.

Great page with so much to love about it--Big John doing Galactus, the perfect caricature of Nixon, and the intense sense of chaos that comes with Galactus' attack on earth.  Marvel magic!

Wow classic and historic early Ditko rogue's gallery page--so cool!

Great example of both early Butch Guice and the charming character dynamics that made us all fall in love with the X-Men of that era and think of them ask family.  Very fitting tribute to remember Guice's work--he created a lot of comic books that I really enjoyed.

Such a dramatic and well-designed cover (and, I never would have known that was a droid!)

This is spectacular and holds up with the best stuff Nowlan has done.  Jealous congrats!

Never seen this before--so awesome!

Great page that sums up Jack's conception of this character.

Gorgeous Frazetta example--congrats!

I watched this piece on Albert's site for many years as well--so happy to hear that it's ended up in a loving, appreciative home, and I'm sure that would have made Sean happy as well.  Congrats!

Great page--Leonardi makes Spidey so expressive, even under the mask!

Remember the cover to this issue very well--I think it was in some house ads at the time; but I never actually read the comic!  No Hulk but this is a great page--while I didn't appreciate his style at the time, I really have come to love the unique and edgy linework of Gerry Talaoc's inks, which look fantastic on Rom.  Wish there was more Sal B/Gerry T Rom art out there!

Great cover, and special to see Big John inking himself during that era as it happened rarely; but as can be seen in the gorgeous linework on this cover, I've always felt that he was one of his own best inkers.  Congrats!

Excellent piece--this cover made a big impact on me as a reader at the time, the choice to do Doom's cloak in black ink made it so striking and visually distinctive.  Congrats!

Incredible piece--perfect encapsulation of the magic and mystery of that early Hellboy art.  Magnificent!

This is awesome!  Wish there was more work by Plunkett out there--everything he touched was a gem.

WOW!  Iconic Spidey cover--that's an incredible pick-up.  Literally chock-full of baddies.  

Awesome example--if you were only going to have one PCR Elric page, this would be a great candidate to scratch that itch!  All the dragon imagery is so great--that last panel is incredible.  Congrats!

I love seeing Big John ink himself--really sensitive and beautiful linework here.  Great page!

Classic--if not perfect--example of the Hulk of that era: guns, muscles, attitude!  And really gorgeous inking by Mark Farmer--especially those shadows on the Hulk's legs and arm.  Awesome, incredible page.

Wow!  Not many pages like this from this run, with Elektra in full, classic Miller choreographed action mode.  Congrats!

Didn't realize this was Abel inks--I agree, this is some of the best work I've seen from him!  Maybe because Perez put it all on the page for him to follow.  The end result is gorgeous--and so densely packed, I love that there's so much to look at on the page.

If this epic story was going to be represented by a single page, this would be one of the top candidates--it not the best example.  Exemplary showcase of BWS going ALL out in his uber-detailed art, and a ferocious presentation of Logan that is tragic at the same time.  Love how the storytelling works so well on its own--it's a perfect standalone page.  Congrats!

A high price to pay but (easy for me to say) worth it--this is a classic Frazetta example that checks all the boxes of what you'd want in a Frazetta.

Great idea for an Alan Davis commission!--love seeing his version of this iconic image.
