Here's a couple of cool covers from his ASM run which haven't been covered yet, so to speak 

This is a gorgeous non-key cover

 

And Lizard has rarely looked more fierce...

ASM 313 is one of my favorites. I have one on the way from Stephen Ritter, I’ll post it when it arrives.

I wont tell if you wont.

Since McFarlane was responsible for ending the age anyway, maybe we can get some leeway.

His Marvel and DC books were basically all published in the copper age.

Also, if you take a look in the Bronze forum there is a Neal Adams thread, whose work has spanned like 5 decades and multiple comic book ages.

I love that lizard cover and honestly it should have been in the Torment story

In a ‘where’s Waldo’ kind of way, I enjoyed trying to find the hidden spider(s) on his ASM and Adjectiveless Spiderman titles, along with finding Felix the Cat images or references on interior panels.

he certainly made it more fun to pick up a copy or two of his Spidey books 👍🏻

[Ramonduke]

Love all the Spider-Man covers. Here’s some of the favorites from my collection!

Picked this up at one of our LCS yesterday. I love old school signatures. I also love that I posted a pic in a McFarlane thread just minutes after I posted a pic in the anti-communist book thread in Golden Age. Who says collectors can't be diverse?

I got my copy some time ago, so it was for somewhat less than the current going rate.

Todd's ASM run was pretty much the "HUSH" of its day, minus the interconnecting storyline.  Just as Hush was just Loeb scripting opportunities for Jim Lee to draw Batman's Rogues, at some point Micheline buoyed Todd's growing popularity by giving him the opportunity to tackle Spidey's catalogue of villains.  

I've always been partial to the Lizard and Mysterio covers, particularly the latter.  

[Shazbot]

I'm an all-day sucker for a sideways.

By my own estimation (explanation in the other thread in this Copper forum), Copper goes from 1982 to 1992.  Every Marvel/DC McFarlane is therefore Copper.

It's McFarlane Friday !

What better way to end the week than to get half dozen high grade McFarlane's in the mail?
