(And I truly wish I could stop myself from mentioning the word "mot" at the bottom. But I enlarged it to carefully look it over because of how much I like it!)
I like the fact that the redrawn version doesn't show that the tentacles are attached to Dr. Octopus' body, keeping that aspect of his powers as a surprise revelation in the actual story. (At least, it would be a surprise at the time.)
There's just so much to love about this one.
ReplyDeleteI have this issue in the brazilian version from the 60's. So much nostalgia... About the version of Pablo: AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteSuper great! I love it!

Fantastic! One of the first comics I ever read (reprint digest, of course).
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge fan of Ditko's version and Mayer's. The remake did a nice job of giving this a kid-friendly feel. Fun, despte the typo ;)

Great work, Pablo! I'm digging the indie feel on the redux and the blocky shadows seem perfectly suited for this piece.
ReplyDeleteI like the spittle coming out of Doc Ock's mouth.
ReplyDeleteNice touch.

ReplyDeleteI seriously love this cover! Great job!
