A really different look on Spidey first appearace
So If Stan Lee is so proud of Peter Parker and his high flying alter ego , why did he have a different illustrator do that Iconic cover piece of Amazing Fantasy #15 besides the main story illustrator named Ditko? This maybe not an answer to that?.... but still it's a fun little reading point for web head fans I know this to be true!
Here's just another AMAZING little bit of the man known as Peter Parker who is the red and blue spandex comic character better known as Spider-Man. Just what is this very "AMAZING thing" that is so reverent to a ordinal guy who can't as far as I see it keep any of his fans happy because that can be found throughout the history part of the blog, in case you're wanting to know my stickiness of the many wrongs done. Let's go way back to Peter's very first story as a teenager who gets a very special reminder of why any hero is needed .Which we all know that one day at Midtown high school because no one will talk to him he goes to a science demonstration on the use of radioactivity particles, when unbeknownst to anyone in the room that a arachnid has spun it's thread of webbing way to close to the particle accelerator and is caught in the transfusion process which gives the little creature the ability transfer it's life essence to the living body it would bite. We as fans of Spidey know what happen next in that six page tale dated August 1962 in this seen here. What I wanna know is sure there are many iconic comic book covers that have featured much the same level hero standing as Spidey and some not so great ones either, yet I will bet you weather famous or not even those one time heroes had something about them that stands out. For example here is a copy
of the very first Super-Man cover from over seventy four years and then you leap or swing ahead about depending on the type of super power you have here's Todd McFarlane's eight issue from the title that shot him into stardom. Now with this being about the first appearance of ol web head before his own title I want you all to know I tired suggesting as a idea to the Spider-Man website known as Crawl Space late into the wee hours of this morning as to if they decide to do it I just don't know, still it is a cool little thought of celebrating the ol wall crawler's fifty years in the actual month of when Amazing Fantasy # 15 was dated! Here are just a few spoofs , , , , ,that I found besides the ones you've also seen here already. Here are just a couple of them right now , , it is rather weird to be talking about Amazing Fantasy#15 when you think of those copies from so long ago in a whole new form what do I mean by that well take a gander at these two LEGO made , , ones, pretty cool huh? Speaking of the ol new Black suit here was the first cover ,the web head had when he and all the heroes who were whisked away by the character known as the Beyonder for his test of "Secret Wars". There was a really rare one made of Ben Reliy when he was the Scarlet Spider during the nineteen nineties "Clone Saga" story line that never saw the dawn of day. Just recently as you can see in the Mary Jane question to the right here it looks as if McFarlane is taking a crack at spoofing the all time great Jack Kirby cover with his character known as Spawn , I just wonder what the text will be for the dialogue balloons when it see print? And still I just can't see why Stan Lee didn't see a real hook with the story artist Steve Ditko take which is jaw dropping as well ,or maybe it's just me I don't know? Oh and yes before you ask some given day not sure when Action Comics #1 parodies will be coming count on it!
