Hey! It's another round of Spider-Man cover recreations, commissioned by my pal, Al! I've now done enough of these that Dan Greenfield kindly did a feature on them over at the wonderful 13th Dimension! Look at these, then go look at them! And then look at some other stuff! LOOKEE LOOKIE LOOOO!!!
Sorry, I've been at the computer all day, I'm a little batty. What we have here are redos of THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN #2 originally painted by John Romita (Marvel dabbled in this new magazine format in the late Sixties before diving in later in the Seventies, albeit mostly in non-superhero genres), THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #3 originally by Steve Ditko (introducing Doctor Octopus), ASM #89 (that darned Doc Ock again!) and ASM #136, with the Green Goblin (or, Green Goblin Jr.), both by Romita.

Al who? My favorite of these is the Amazing Spider-Man #3 cover which is one of the best Spider-Man cover designs of all time. But what makes this a great homage is that it brings enough of a unique yet classic style that there is something new to enjoy. It makes me want to see more of “Al”’s art. But I don’t see a last name or a tag.
Todd, Al is the commissionER, I am the commissionEE. All the artwork on this site is by me. Glad you like it! Thanks!!
Nice job, I’ll keep an eye on you.
