Time to start warming up for SPIDER-MAN…!
Today I started the inevitable warm ups for my stint on the new SPIDER-MAN title that Marvel’s launching some time this fall. I always like to try to get a handle on how I would handle whatever characters I’m asked to work on ahead of time. Tom Brevoort was kind enough to give me some development time before the beginning of our just-ended FANTASTIC FOUR run…. and the characters STILL ended up looking vastly different at the END of the run from what they looked like at the BEGINNING. That’s just the way it is with me. And even though I’ve already HAD one run on a SPIDER-MAN comic (anybody remember SENSATIONAL…?), I’m still going to have to work on it. But it’s fun to get started…. and as luck would have it, I’ve got some down time before the new book starts.
So, here’s my first try at Peter Parker. There will be many more to follow, I assure you. So don’t judge me too harshly on this first crack at Pete.
