THE NIGHT GWEN STACY DIED COVER FOR MARVEL POCKET BOOKS






A while back i showed some roughs of a cover for

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN
THE NIGHT GWEN STACY DIED
MARVEL POCKET BOOK PUBLISHED BY PANINI UK LTD


so here are the roughs again as you can see the Editor picked rough number 5 then asked me to pencil the cover so Spidey is being hit by the Green Goblin and not strangled as this was a special story cover i asked the Editor if i could ink the cover as well , the cover was coloured by my friend and ace artist John Charles.
I think he did a brilliant job on the colouring for this cover.

the book is now out for sale

PENCILS AND INKS : JON HAWARD ,COLOURING JOHN CHARLES

  1. Really good to see these roughs, all of which are really powerful and dynamic as Spidey covers ought to be. For me it's the key part of the creative process. I think they're always as exciting as the finished artwork and you can see you've had a lot of fun doing them.

    Great work Jon!!!
