Epic Covers: The Avengers #59 by Mark Bagley

I have no idea what’s happening in The Avengers nowadays. Thankfully, you don’t need that knowledge to appreciate this recent variant cover to The Avengers #59 by Mark Bagley, paying tribute to 900 issues of The Amazing Spider-Man. He’s one of the best Spidey artists of all time, so to see him drawing so many of the character’s various costumes from over the years is, to say the least, epic. We’ve got black suit Spider-Man, Scarlet Spider, Iron Spider, the Superior Spider-Man, just to name a few.

Amazing, indeed.

Mark Bagley is drawing Spider-Man again?!? That’s awesome!

Obviously, I’ve been out of the loop on Spidey for awhile. But it looks like Nick Spencer, no stranger to controversy himself, is journeying into Mephisto/One More Day territory. If they’re not going to restore Spidey and Mary Jane’s marriage, I’d just as soon have them leave that stuff alone. Especially when this issue already has a lot of compelling stuff going for it. We’ve got Peter literally “acting” out his feelings on stage, and we’ve got the revelation of a shocking new alliance for MJ…
