Sal Buscema slander
Replying to @ComicSwipe
Why is everyone crapping on Romita Jr. but the likes of Sal Buscema, who was an objectively far inferior artist, continue to be exalted?
I get that Romita Jr. is not for everyone. I myself find his blocky style unfit for Spiderman (but perfect for the likes of DD and Punisher). But his body of work is undeniable.
Today is Sal Buscema’s 90th birthday. It’s also come to light that he’s passed away last Friday at the age of 89.
Sal was my personal greatest of all time, and was largely responsible for a deeper love I have for comic books.
Happy Birthday, and Rest in Peace,
Our Pal Sal.
For anyone curious, this is my own copy of ASM #351. In terms of paper quality, we would call these white pages, meaning that over the years, it’s retained its look without turning yellow. So this is more or less how it looked when it came off the printer in ‘91.

Here’s what I got for December 15th! ASM #650 is the first Big Time Suit and PPSSM #64 is the first appearance of Cloak and Dagger, so you got some really cool ones

At least one of them is ASM #12!
Ok I’m just gonna put this out there—I know the widow’s peak exacerbates it, but classic house style Peter Parker definitely has a slightly receded hairline. Especially next to people with better hairlines, like that’s a Norwood 2 bro.
I think we gotta plan a trip to Turkey.
