Description
Gil Kane and John Romita Sr. Amazing Spider-Man #145 Cover Original Art (Marvel, 1975). Two of Spider-Man's legendary artists teamed to create this Bronze Age bombshell as the Scorpion stings again. One couldn't ask for a better art team on a Spider-Man cover than Kane and Romita -- both creators are considered to be definitive Spider-Man artists. The composition, a "worm's eye view" looking up at the web-slinger and spotlighting the possible defeat of our hero, is done in typical Kane fashion -- it's especially striking. This triumph from the House of Ideas has an image area of 9.75" x 15". The art was drawn on vellum and it has been mounted to a support paper. The logo and type elements are replacements; otherwise, the piece is in Very Good condition. Romita Sr. signed the page at the lower right.More information about John Romita Sr..
