Description
Alex Ross Marvels Trade Paperback Painted Cover Original Art (Marvel, c. 2001). The entire history of the Marvel Silver Age is symbolized in this single iconic masterpiece. The 1994 mini-series Marvels was a breakthrough for its creators, artist Alex Ross and writer Kurt Busiek. The saga presented the spectacle of Marvel comics history -- the awe-inspiring superheroes and cosmos-shaking battles, all told from the perspective of Phil Sheldon, the newspaper photographer who witnesses "the marvels" from ground level. Alex Ross' rich, lush, photorealistic style established his fan-favorite status and made this story a landmark event. This cover scene spotlighting the Amazing Spider-Man in his new role as a news photographer, has a matted image area of 9.75" x 14.5", is on standard board, and it has been matted and framed to an overall size of 20" x 25". The art is in Excellent condition, and Alex Ross signed the piece at the lower right.More information about Alex Ross. See also: Ross, Alex Artist. Lookup the Comic Book in our Guide
