How The Original Art From Web Of Spider-Man #15 Changed For Print
Earlier today, Bleeding Cool looked at a bit of hidden history. The original artwork to what would have originally been the cover to Formerly Known As The Justice League #6 by Kevin Maguire and Joe Rubenstein, being auctioned today as part of Heritage Auction's Sunday & Monday Comics, Animation, Video Games & Art Weekly Online Auction 122104. But there's more history to be unearthed. Such as this page of Web Of Spider-Man #15 from 1986 drawn by Mike Harris and Kyle Baker and currently at a ludicrously low $14.
The listing explains the history.
Mike Harris and Kyle Baker Web of Spider-Man #15 Story Page 22/23 Original Art (Marvel, 1986). Here we have a normal page featuring Peter Parker and Black Fox — what makes it unusual is this page was not printed in the comic. An editorial decision changed the sequence and this page was split between Pages 22 and 23 — the first four panels were on Page 22 and the last two panels were included on Page 23 — Panels 5-7 were reworked and not used as seen here. Ink over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 10" x 15". Slight toning, art paste-ups in Panel 7, with light handling wear. In Very Good condition.
Here's how the printed version looked as a result.
There are other original art pages up for grabs as well, including one by Image Comics co-founder, Top Cow founder and Witchblade/Cyberforce/Darkness creator, Marc Silvestri and a truly astonishing Ben Urich page.
Bill Wylie and Timothy Tuohy Web of Spider-Man #104 Story Page 5 Original Art (Marvel, 1993). Nightwatch busts in on Deathgrin's burglary attempt in this page from the back-up story "Deathmask".

Currently at $26.
Marc Silvestri Web of Spider-Man #20 Story Page 5 Original Art (Marvel, 1986). Peter Parker takes out a gunman in this page from early in the career of Image co-founder Marc Silvestri — soon after this, Silvestri would shine on Uncanny X-Men, gaining popularity and becoming a top artist in the industry.

Slight toning, production trimmed top edge and bottom right corner, blue pencil editorial notes, whiteout corrections, with light handling wear. In Very Good condition. Currently at $82.
