Description:
Todd McFarlane Spider-Man #8 Cover Original Art (Marvel, 1991). With figures bent into spidery proportions, extreme webbing design and trademark dynamic style, Todd McFarlane popularized a dynamic new era in the life of Peter Parker, in the series he alone could write and illustrate, Spider-Man. Like the recent record-setters by this artist, this piece is being offered without reserve, and we expect the bidding to get quite competitive. This cover has an image area of 10" x 15" and it includes its original logo and masthead paste-ups. In Excellent condition. Signed by the artist at the lower left.

McFarlane, Todd:Todd McFarlane (Canadian, b. 1961): is a multi-talented cartoonist, writer, toy designer and entrepreneur, most celebrated for his work on Marvel’s Incredible Hulk, and Spider-Man, as well as on his own character, Spawn. In the early nineties, McFarlane became the first of a new breed of independent comic book superstars, thanks to the p[opularity of his work on Marvel’s titles. In 1992, he and several of the new wave of comics creators formed Image Comics. McFarlane based his hugely successful, occult, anti-hero Spawn on a character from his high school portfolio and updated the concept for the nineties. In recent years, McFarlane has focused most of his time on his entrepreneurial efforts, McFarlane Toys and Todd McFarlane Entertainment, a film and animation studio.
