Frank Miller Week: Day 6

Posted on by

Frank Miller Week: Day 6.  That’s Miller’s cover to Peter Parker #60.  It was cover dated November 1981.  At the time, Miller was still going strong with his amazing run as writer and penciller on Daredevil [Klaus Janson was inking each issue and more than equal to the task]. 

I saw Peter Parker #60 and despite knowing little about the interior art or story, felt that the cover was worth the price of admission.  I loved everything about it… the pose, the bold inks, the colors, the lighting, the backgrounds.  Although generic enough to be the cover for ANY Spider-Man book, I felt that Miller had knocked this one out of the park.

Tomorrow we’ll wrap up Frank Miller Week with a look at a piece that is a fanboy’s dream.
