DESCRIPTION
Spider-Man/MJ Variant Cover A; J. Scott Campbell pencils, inks and signed; image size 10" x 16.25"There's no better four-color couple than Peter Parker and Mary Jane. From the very start, in her first fully realized appearance in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man #42, Mary Jane Watson, the outgoing, fiery redhead, stole the hearts of readers by becoming Peter Parker's best friend and bride. Their fictional marriage has lasted decades, becoming a model and inspiration for fans around the world who search for their own Peter or MJ.
Legendary artist J. Scott Campbell drew this variant cover for Amazing Spider-Man #803. Known for his sleek pencils and stunning anatomy, Campbell couldn't render a better depiction of Peter & MJ's relationship. Her famous line "Face it, tiger, you just hit the jackpot," is encapsulated in the high-spirited girl next door held snug in the arms of New York City's friendly, neighborhood guardian. J Scott Campbell is one of the most highly sought-after artists in the business today, so this piece of modern art will likely assume a place of honor in the collection of a long-time comics aficionado.
Artist Information
Since entering the winning piece in an "Invent the ultimate video game" contest at the age of 15, J. Scott Campbell has been a superstar illustrator in the comic book and video game industry for over two decades. Campbell rose to fame while working for Wildstorm comics and later was one of four co-founders for Cliffhanger productions where he would co-create one of his most notable works; "Danger-Girl". J. Scott's art is instantly recognizable among comic book fans as he known for his animated pin-up style and dynamic figures. Today he bounces back forth illustrating for both Marvel and DC, doing covers for major cross-over events as well as special variants for regular issues. His works on the Amazing Spider-Man drew in new readers and assuredly led to an uptick in sales for an already super popular title.
