  1. The newer version of this thread puts Andru's Amazing Spider-Man pages in the $10-20k tier, and pages from Superman vs ASM had the benefit of larger pages, better inking and uncredited input from Neal Adams.
  2. Are you sure about this? Bates normally just writes. His only art credit on GCD is designing the cover of World's Finest #151 for Curt Swan to draw.
  3. In the interview I linked to, Michelinie said, "To me, Eddie Brock and the symbiote–that‘s VENOM. Take John Doe and the symbiote, that‘s someone else."
  4. For me, Amazing Spider-Man #238-250 were anything but crappy - they were an Indian summer of excellence after several years of mediocrity. The issues by DeFalco and Frenz seemed very clunky by comparison.
  5. The covers were by Steve Lightle (#35-42) and John Byrne (#43).
  6. If I was forced to guess, I'd go with someone like Mark Bagley for the penciller and maybe Bob McLeod or Armando Gil for the inker, but the picture is too blurry to say with much confidence.
  7. Sal worked on Cap #146-163, 165-181, 185, 188, 218-223, 225-237, 284 & 285. The issues in the 200s tended to be breakdowns only and weren't as good.
  8. Was the Cat supposed to be Patsy Walker or Greer Nelson? She was drawn with red hair like Patsy on the cover, but dark hair like Greer in the story.
  9. Sarge Steel #6 (cover dated November 1965,, approximate on sale date September 1 1965) included a 3 pager by McLaughlin entitled What Is Karate?, which was introduced by Judomaster, who appeared as a headshot in the first panel only.
  10. Wasn't that Man-Thing story a two-parter? Did they only reprint the first part?
  11. I think this one was pencilled by Kirby and inked by Romita, although Spider-Man looks more like Romita solo. I don't think the King ever really got the hang of drawing Spidey.
  12. Several of the issues with Black Widow had the benefit of superb artwork by Gene Colan and Tom Palmer (#86-95), but I'm not sure how well Gerry Conway's writing would hold up. I loved the Jim Shooter / Gil Kane issues, especially the ones inked by Klaus Janson (#147, 148 and 151). Frank Miller's Russian roulette issue was a sequel to #146, and his early issues were like a Gil Kane tribute act.
  13. Ultimate Nick Fury's first appearance was in Ultimate Marvel Team Up #5, but as drawn by Michael Allred he looked similar to 616 Fury. I think he was first drawn looking like Samuel L Jackson by Bryan Hitch in the Ultimates #2.
  14. They're not reprints. The first 24 issues consisted of Captain Marvel and Caprian Marvel Jr reprints, which were halted by DC's lawsuit against Fawcett. #25 up contained new stories.
  15. I think Ditko just did breakdowns for most of his Valiant stuff, so it might have quality against it as well as context.
  16. Pat Boyette, Gene Colan, Mike Kaluta, Gil Kane, Joe Kubert, Mike McMahon and Alex Toth for me.
  17. Golden Dr. Strange is already on the list, in the $10-20k tier. I'm sure someone will come up with prices for Micronauts pages if we're patient. Patience is a virue.
