Ross Andru's Amazing Spider-Man Club 9 9

There's a splash page in 150 featuring MJ. Its when he's fighting Spider slayer. I love Kane but Romita remains the only one to perfect MJ....Andru came close but the facial detail never quite matched. All of them have more talent than most people would know what to do with however

Agreed.

 

Romita Sr. is imbeatable but Andru did my favorite MJ.

That's a lot of artistry in the family between the two of you. 

[Winterboy]

Thanks, Spider-Variant, my six year old son is an artist too!

 

..and we love classic Spider-Man!

We discussed a little time ago how Gil Kane drew the Brooklyn Bridge as the location of the demise of the lovely Gwen Stacy back in Amazing Spider-Man 121, even though the dialogue referenced the George Washington Bridge.

Here are the flashbacks over his run on Amazing Spider-Man Ross drew in harkening back to that fateful day, hopefully I didn't miss any.  Below that is Gil Kane's original depiction.

I love Andru's artwork.

Me too, but Gil Kane was pretty good too, lol.

I really like the artwork in ASM 145, one of my favorite Ross issues, driven primarily by nostalgia.  That flashback scene is one of my favorites.

And of course, Peter is wearing @Get Marwood & I 's sweater.

Nostalgia is our fuel, my friend.

 

Look at MJ's face!

This?

 

[Spider-Variant]

He also likes the jacket.

Frank Giacoia and Mike Esposito, mid-seventies NY comic convention.

I definitely would not have been able to pick out Frank.

Wonder where Ross was?  He didn't seem like he would be the convention type, though.

Not always.

[Winterboy]

Have a great week, guys!

 

 

[Spider-Variant]

That is such a great page by Andru.  I always loved the Tarantula as a villain.  Superb dynamic action.

You and Gerry Conway, my friend.
