Pg. 27 Todd McFarlane pencils & inks, signed; image size 10" x 15"Few artists are as prolific as the masterful Todd McFarlane. At one point in his career, he was writing and illustrating as many as five comic books every month. With his popularity came his controversies. His reimagining of Spider-Man (or more specifically, his webs) was oft maligned by fans at the time but, now, is cherished as an inspiration of artistic design. Within a year of drafting this page, he would take his sense of flair and style to Image, where his work would continue to have an impact on the industry for years to come. Todd McFarlane is a comic book rock star, making any original piece of his work a "must-own" for collectors and newcomers alike.
This page is not only full of the lively design and excitement that made McFarlane so popular, it features one of his most-cherished additions to the Spidey mythos to date: Venom. Here, the arch-nemesis stalks our Friendly Neighborhood Hero through expertly detailed surroundings. Marvel at the mayhem, pacing, and pure technique that make this page come to life. Todd McFarlane art is always in demand, but with a solo Venom movie, starring Tom Hardy, finally moving closer to release, original work featuring the character will only become more desirable, so get your webs on this one while you can.
