Ah, that explains why I didn't get it. 

IMO it was his last great, clever cover. Looking at it, you really have to wonder how it made it past Marvel's Standards and Practices.

Good afternoon, everyone.  Ironically, I was just notified today by CGC, that my resubmission of Dange Girl 2 (Ruby Red) SS, came back a 9.8, vice the original 9.6.  Thanks to Kevhtx for the advice on resubmitting.

holy moley

I think JSC is losing his touch...I think this cover is terrible! Peter looks constipated, or maybe MJ needs to lose a few pounds. Peters thighs looks bulgy and does MJ have hooves in those shoes.

"Constipated" was exactly my first thought as well.  And I didn't even notice the feet until you mentioned it, but yeah, that's pretty awful.  I get that when you stretch your feet like that, the arch becomes a little more pronounced.  But there's none of that.  I have to wonder if it's an issue with the inker/colourist?  The look makes a little more sense in cover ABC when you can imagine the foot is stretching the boot.  But when the foot is exposed, there should be more of a gap where the arch should be.

As much I like the playful MJ look in covers A/B, as well as the "me-ow" of cover C, considering I was reamed so hard on the SDCC covers, this is an easy pass for me.

[Oat Willy1]

This is how they should look

[kevhtx]

Yeah, Im not a fan of that cover. Her feet ARE terrible and you would think Liefeld drew Peter's legs..

I've never ordered from his site before.  What with the new ASM #2 going out for sale on 8/11, what should I expect at checkout?  Will it be a 90 second sell out like it is for Mondo posters, or will it be more casual so I can go in after an hour or two and still be able to get a set? Also, is there extra charges for shipping and sales tax to California?  Thanks.

How quickly a piece sells out kinda depends on how popular it is.  The ASM Ultra set which had all 8 books sold out in seconds.  You could order the 2 sets separately (one for books ABCD, another for EFGH), but that cost a little more.  When all was said and done full sets sold out quickly.  I feel like there have been a handful of less popular releases that took a little longer to sell out.  If you want an unsigned set, I would say that it's probably not going to be so casual that you could login a few hours later and expect a full unsigned set.  (The unsigned set usually sells out first).

And yes, shipping is extra but I have never been charged sales tax when purchasing through the online store (also a California resident).

Yeah that last one is pretty bad, but I do like the first 3. Some of the better ones he's put out recently. I'll pass though.

Ten bucks says this originally was going to be Gwen or he pasted over a template of Gwen. He always draws her in a black top with bangs. MJ on the other hand basically always has swooping hair, T-shirts, and jeans/jean shorts. Her head even looks like a bad copy/paste job onto a different plane from her body. This is terrible.
