Spider-Man

Posted by operator x On February - 19 - 2010

I’m doing four covers for the relaunch of Marvel’s new ‘Marvel Kids’ line, featuring Spider-Man! This is fun for a few reasons: first, I’ve never really had an opportunity to draw Spidey professionally (and along with Batman, he’s one of the earliest characters I can remember obsessing over as a child), and second, it’s a reboot of sorts, which means that Peter Parker is an awkward, gangly high school teenager again, and that, to me, is an integral part of the character.

So here’s the first one!

(The next one is full of ninjas – another childhood dream fulfilled)

Inks by Serge LaPointe (of course) and colours by Nadine Thomas, our new studiomate!
