I think there's a requirement in the Negative Zone that a villain must take a class in over dramatic acting before they are allowed to invade our universe.  Blastaar no doubt got an A+!  Another fabulous 1970s Marvel page in your collection!

I always think my commissions turn out great and then I see yours and feel woefully inadequate.

I'm still recovering from all the damage I did to my lungs yesterday to celebrate Superman Day and lo and behold I open up CAF the day after and see that I was totally on the right track.

The Man of Steel would be proud!

How horrible. I've rarely seen such postal damage.I suppose it was not an expensive purchase but/so are you considering restoration?

I'm confident that restoration would cost significantly more than the page itself is worth, so I don't have any plans to restore it.

I worked in a comic book store when this series came out, and I spent many, many hours opening cases of cards to put together complete sets for the store to sell. It could have been tedious work after a while, but the art was so good that I never got bored.  It's great to see an original like this as it takes me back to that great time.

You act like a Marvel Saga
Playin' so hard to Frenz
Sittin' so cool as comic art
Milgrom Ron from all the best
You keep the wall art around you
I'll get through some day
I want your Hulk, babe, but push comes to shove
Namor Nick Cap Stark on page

Get a page, get the page that you love
And I won't stop until your love is history owned
Chip away, that's what Pym’s gonna do
Sweet Marvel Saga, I wanna get page of you

When Aerosmith appeared in an issue of "Shadowman" in the original Valiant series, many hoped it would be a stepping stone to the band appearing in a Marvel book alongside Cap, Namor, Nick Fury, Iron Man, Thunderbolt Ross and Hank Pym's chemistry set, but it didn't happen. Your post is the closest that we will get to that dream.

I really enjoyed Coker's artwork when it appeared back in the day.  I would have loved to have seen him do a nice long run on a Marvel title, but instead we had to make do with the occasional issues like this one.  A great addition to your collection!

Superman should have started wearing the Eradicator's sunglasses after returning from the dead.  That would have been a way cooler look than the mullet.

Nicely captures the horror aspect of the Demon Bear story.  Between this and what Empath did to them, Tom and Sharon did not have it easy (and then poor Sharon got knocked off completely a few years later).

Koblish put so much into this page with all of the tiny tech details throughout.  I recall being disappointed with the revelation that Douglock wasn't Doug Ramsey, but then Doug came back eventually since no Marvel characters stay dead forever.

So sorry to see this, but better that it still exists than to be destroyed forever. Not sure if you've included all the packaging in the photos, but judging by the pictures posted, I think you're blaming the wrong party for the damage.

I am confident that the ultimate responsibility for the damage belongs to the USPS.  From what I can piece together, the package somehow fell out of its designated shipping container in transit from the Metro NY Distribution Center to my local post office - the package was scanned as being in the container when it left the Distribution Center but the post office claimed the package was not in the container when it arrived at the post office.  The post office then said that the USPS had no idea what happened to the package and they declared it officially lost.  Around a month later it shows up in my mailbox with a sticker on it from the USPS saying they regret the damage and hope it did not inconvenience me.  The package was torn in multiple places and had been bent every which way.  How that happened is a mystery for which I will not likely receive an answer..

I don't know what kind of voodoo you perform but your mystery sketches always turn out awesome.

Thanks! Most of the artists who I have spoken to about doing a Disco Dazzler commission in the past seem genuinely excited to draw her - I think the roller skates and the music performance angle are subjects they do not get to draw too often, so the novelty of it leads to some great results.

Page after page I must face a world of strangers
Where I don't belong, I'm mullet strong
It's Guice and Joe that there's someone I can turn to
Who will always care, you're always there

When there's no getting over that Marvel
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the Access the world has to give
But I won't last a page without you

So many times when the DC seems to be without a friendly face
A Spidey page
It's Guice and Joe that you'll be there if I need you

And you'll always smile, it's art worthwhile

I like to think that if Karen Carpenter had lived, the Carpenters would have one day completed a Spider-Man themed concept album.
