This is the published Original Title Splash Page 4 artwork from 'Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man' # 1 (Marvel, 2005) featuring KARL KESEL'S original inks over Mike Wieringo's blueline pencils, on a standard 11 x 17 inch board. The artwork is in pristine condition, no creases, tears or white-out corrections.
From the very first issue, this awesome splash page features Spidey swooping down on one nasty bank robber.
Wieringo's and Kesel's vision of Spider-Man is clearly influence by that of John Romita Sr.'s. There's plenty of energy in his Spidey, but there's a softness, and a vulnerability as well that makes the character seem even more likable.
Story Synopsis: Peter Parker is haunted by disturbing dreams (though since it's Peter, parts of the nightmares are a bit silly), and his fears prompt Mary Jane to recruit some help in order to allay those fars. Meanwhile, Tracer, a new super-villain, turns up in Manhattan, and the only one who's abe to stop him from robbing a bank is a certain friendly neighborhood super-hero. Tracer's got some impossible bullets in his arsenal, giving Spidey a run for his money. But ol' Webhead has some new tricks up his sleeve as well... which work out only in part.
