The Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 2 #55 Release Date: September, 2003 Pencils and Inks: Mike Deodato Jr. Colors: Dan Kemp
Nice artwork, but I really REALLY hate the period where colorists colored Spidey's suit as if the web lines created a pillowed effect, with little highlights for every space between the webs. That makes NO DAMN SENSE.

Trying to imitate (or pay tribute to) the design of Raimi's Spider-Man suit, I guess.
I forgot how much I missed you posting these covers. More hope! More Lewis! More dobie! More Oskner!
Sorry, that’s it for this go-round. I do have one more purchase from Heroes Con though: The Phantom #35 (Dec. 1969), cover pencils and inks by Jim Aparo. Aparo did not do the interior story this month, however. He did draw all the Phantom stories in issues #36 through 38, before leaving the book to take over Phantom Stranger at DC.
Interesting thing is... Superman beating up on a woman was JUST AS DISTURBING AND WRONG back then, that's why you just HAD to pick up the issue and read what the hell is going on. That was the whole point.
But now, just THINKING about the above image could land you jail time in some countries.
Today’s entry from the DC cover-a-day calendar: The Flash #9 (July 2012), pencils by Tony Daniel, inks by Sandu Florea, color by Tomeu Morey. You know, I like the composition a lot with the tilted camera. I like the figure drawing with the heavy lean. There’s a lot of energy in the drawing. But I hate all the extra lines of the costume—so much unnecessary visual noise! It looks like someone just scribbled on the cover with a yellow marker. Oh well.
Pencils and inks by Jim Starlin, color by Tatjana Wood.
Wood was German born, and immigrated to the U.S. in 1947, where she attended the Traphagen School of Fashion in New York City. She married Wally Wood in 1950 and sometimes assisted him on certain jobs even back during the EC years. She’s mostly known as a colorist, but she was also a dressmaker and weaver. She mostly retired in 2003.
Today’s entry from the DC cover-a-day calendar: Swamp Thing #9 (Mar.-Apr. 1974), penciled and inked by Bernie Wrightson (he may have done the color key as well).
Marvel Team-Up Vol. 1 #91 Release Date: March, 1980 Pencils, Inks, and Colors: Rich Buckler and Al Milgrom
Not too sure whom did the exact pencils, inks, or colors here since both Buckler and Milgrom have been known to done all three before, and they're merely credited as "cover artists" in this issue.
Buckler did the pencils, and Milgrom did the inks. Colors were probably someone in the production department.
Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man Vol. 1 #109 Release Date: December, 1985 Pencils: Rich Buckler Inks: Brett Breeding Colors: Nelson Yomtov
Today sees one of my favorite Spider-Man stories ever by Peter David (more well-known for his Spider-Man 2099 title). It's always hard to mention the title though, since it's literally a spoiler itself, but let's just say that it's that famous Jean DeWolff story. ;)

YES! Finally! My first Spider-Girl cover to be posted!
I haven't read much of Spider-Girl, but I love that it's the first rendition of a married Peter Parker - way before Renew Your Vows even came out! lol
Well, 'till Dan Slott came along with his edgy Spider-Verse anyway. Thank god that wasn't canon (as confirmed by DeFalco).
