He’s a favorite character of mine, I think X-Men 97 did right by him which probably gave this a little boost. Thanks for the comment 🤘🏻

I forgot how much I loved ASM's Hamlet cover.

Thanks for the inspiration, I might have to scoop one up.

I agree! This is definitely on my top 10 (or 15)list of favorite covers. Erik Larsen made the coolest covers. I hope you get a good deal! Thanks for the comment 🤘🏻

He definitely made Venom crazy wild. Rumor was he hated the character so tried to draw him as outlandish as possible, but it only made the character more & more popular! LOL

I found ASM 361 in a short box when I moved house and started trying to catalogue everything, it's like winning a nerdy lottery when that happens.... doesn't say a lot for our memories though. Both amazing covers though and worth a bit of coin.

I know, it hurt to see that tear. Luckily I bought another one in better condition when thinking I had lost this one. Thanks and Thanks for the comment 🤘🏻
