Spider-Man Poster #68 Web Poster Todd McFarlane

Description

McFarlane’s work on Amazing Spider-Man turned him into an industry superstar. His cover art for Amazing Spider-Man #313, for which he was originally paid $700 in 1989, for example, would later sell for $71,200 in 2010. In 1990, after a 28-issue run of Amazing Spider-Man, McFarlane told editor Jim Salicrup he’d grown tired of drawing other people’s stories and would be leaving the book with issue #328 to write his own work. Salicrup offered McFarlane a new Spider-Man book, prompting the launch of a new monthly title simply called Spider-Man, which McFarlane both wrote and illustrated. Spider-Man #1 sold 2.5 million copies, largely due to the variant covers that were used to encourage collectors into buying more than one edition. This poster is the image from Spider-Man 1. From 1990…over 20 years old!
