Oh, looks like the letterer just repositioned that ninth bit of dialogue.  

First, amazing piece, thanks so much for sharing.  I really thought Giacoia did a great job inking Ross on these earlier issues of Andru's run.  The Punisher's facial expression in panel two really depict a man in turmoil.  I love finding little nuggets on these art boys.  It appears Spidey had an additional bit of dialogue in that fourth panel, as indicated by the blue penciled oval and the number nine.  Wonder what it originally was intended to read?

This amazing splash was from the second issue of the series I bought and brings back fond memories.  Irv is my all-time favorite Flash artist.  Thanks for sharing.

Awesome page.  A little before my collecting foray into the Flash.

I always wondered if Ross modeled his nuclear facility after a real one.  Nice shot of Doc Ock.  Thanks for sharing.

I commented on this page 15 years ago, and it still caught my eye as I was perusing this site.  Really love the art combination here, as I feel Leialoha's inks really give Buscema's pencils a pop.  As always, thanks for sharing.

That's an art team you don't see working together every day.  Thanks for sharing.

Whoa, that's really nice.  Love the bottom left immensely.   Thanks for sharing.

Loved this issue.  Thought Perlin inks worked well with Ross's pencils.  Thanks for sharing.

Nice page.  Love those almost reverse inks in that first panel.

Beautiful page, especially love that last panel.  Novice does a great Batman.

Thanks for sharing, on what would have been Ross's 98th birthday.  

It's a team you don't see everyday.  I love that both artist's unique styles are balanced in this page.  Great page, thanks for sharing.

Especially that second panel.  Almost feels like you could touch the Hulk's face.  

Great page.  Bagley brought some new perspective to the series when he joined.  I had a couple of pages from this time period as well, wish I had kept them.

Yes, very nice cover by Alex.  Thanks for sharing.

Nice page.  Yes, love these early Punisher appearances.

Great example of Ross's use of dynamic motion in that first panel.  Very nice.  

Awesome page.  It's amazing how much Ross improved drawing Spider-Man  from issue 1 to issue 3 of MTU.  

That looks awesome.  Well done! 

I'm always amazed at how close these preliminaries are to the actual published covers.  The only real difference I see on this one is Spidey's right leg altered to make it a bit more dynamic on the finished cover.  Nice piece, thanks for sharing.

Andru and Giordano made a great team.  Nice cover, thanks for sharing.

Great page.  Love Sal's work on this series and Palmer's inks work really well.  It was a fun book and I think I had most of them, but haven't read them in a while.  You mention Len (I assume you mean Wein) but the other person running with Sal is Marv Wolfman.  A bunch of the Marvel staff appear in this issue, but I don't think Len is in there.  Thanks for sharing.  

My dad was stationed in Hawaii in the early seventies, so loved watching the Kamen Riders on TV.  Thanks for sharing.

Ugh, can't you post something that isn't complete waste of space!  But joking aside, great page by the amazing John Byrne and probably the best description I have read on this site.  Thanks for sharing.

Oh, this is actually Mike Esposito inks with Dave Hunt uncredited background inks.  Not Mooney.

I remember picking up this issue off the stands back in the day.  This would have been my third issue and got me going down the collecting path as well.  Loved Andru's work on the series.  Great page from this fondly remembered issue.  Love the bad guys dialogue about Not Wanting to get Shafted.  So 70s.  Thanks for sharing.

These early Spectacular Spider-Man issues were so much fun.  Great page.  Sal Buscema was doing some of his best work on these stories, IMHO.  Thanks for sharing.

Very cool!

Love finding stuff like this on original art.  Yes, that finger is longer than humanly possible.  Thanks for posting this hidden gem.

I think the texture of the background features, like the brick wall, the rusted piping, and the fence really highlight the key character, Spider-Gwen (I haven't followed comics in a while, so I hope I got this correct).   Greg knocks it out of the park.  Thanks for sharing.   

Never in a million years would I think this combination of penciller and inker would work.  Never.  But gosh, this looks really good.  I love Andru but his ladies were just a little above average, IMHO.  But this is really, really nice.  He captures Shanna perfectly and the inks by Colletta compliment his pencils nicely.  Great pages, thanks for sharing them all.

I'm always amazed at how closely Kane's preliminaries matched the final art.  True with both covers and interiors.  The biggest change here was the use of a transparent wind shield on the front of the motorcycle, but everything else didn't get altered much, if any.  

Great page from the first issue. 

Very nice Andru art.  I love all the notes to the colorist, trying to make sure the story makes sense.

That's really, really nice.  The art definitely captures the vibe of Dazzler.  Thanks for sharing.

Awesome page, that second panels is very nice.  

Yes, I think this is a fun take on MJ.  It's like it needs to be captioned, along the lines of "Mr. Parker has no idea what he's in for!"  Thanks for sharing.

That front row + the Vision is as good as it gets.  Agree that Frank did a great job inking this piece.  Not a fan of the Beast here nor the Giant Man.  But that's just me nitpicking.  Great piece, thanks for sharing.

That second panel is splendid.  The dark inks really work in this setting.  Love it.  Thanks for sharing.

Awesome page of a historic issue.  Um, you have all three of your credits incorrect though.  Ross was the penciller, Frank was the inker, and Dave was the backgrounds inker.  Thanks for sharing though.

Beautiful splash from my favorite Flash artist.  I always thought that the Flash had the greatest Rogue's Gallery of all Super Herodom.  Well, at least they were the most colorful.  Thanks for sharing.

Great Splash, I loved Sal's work during this time.

I was just going to check on that fact when I read your post Lee.  Dave's inks really shine here, which lead me to wonder if the backgrounds were not by Mike.  Great splash.  

Amazing inking over Ross's pencils.  So much, that the inks have a textured appearance to them.  

At Marvel, Ross was inked primarily by Frank Giacoia and Mike Esposito, who were both decent.  But I look at Ross's work with Dick Giordano and this, and am more impressed than his Marvel work.

Probably the same guy.

Nice pick up.  Big Ross Andru fan.

This is from Charlton's Fightin' Army 127, cover date Dec. 1976.  

Very nice Zen page.  I'm a big Ross fan as well.

I always liked Jim Mooney's inks over Ross's pencils.  Nice page.
