Here's a great Marvel Team Up #84 cover featuring Spider-Man and Master of Kung-Fu from January 1979. This is an excellent and early example of Steve Leialoha, also signed by him in the corner box. You don't see Steve's work for sale often especially since he ended up doing more inking rather than pencils. To me, he is best known for his art on Spider-Woman and Howard the Duck.
Steve still appears at conventions including the upcoming WonderCon in Feb 22-24. I believe he still makes his home in the SF Bay Area.
The MTU cover is currently at $2075.00 with a few hours to go. I'll update this auction at it's conclusion.
UPDATE: This auction closed at $2276.00 with 24 bids. Great classic piece that was added to someone's collection!
