Amazing Spider-Man 252 original comic book art sells for close to $5k


Just wanted to note that 2 pages of original comic book art from Amazing Spider-Man 252 sold for close to $5000 each page today. They were pages 6 and 22. Of course this issue is the first appearance of the black costume which then later led to Venom. These pages are of historical significance in the Marvel Universe and an important time in Spider-Man.

Amazing Spider-Man 252 page 6 sold for $4919.69
Amazing Spider-Man 252 page 22 sold for $4600 even.

Congrats to the winner of these original pieces of comic book history. With comic books become more and more mainstream, original comic book artwork seems to be poised for more recognition as well as "historical" significance to those following pop culture.

Spider-senses tingling through flesh?!?

Whoa, this takes being a comic book FANBOY to a new level.

Here we have an individual with a very large tattoo on his body. The one shown here is on his torso, but he has matching tats on his arms, of the same theme. The tattoo is Spider-Man costume underneath his skin, and it looks as if his flesh is torn open to reveal the costume.

Can you imagine the looks this guy will get when he goes swimming? Anyhow, found this tattoo interesting and different, maybe too extreme for me but "clever." :)
