Moebius' preliminary pencils for the cover of Marvel Tales #253 Source
The image works best without indicia. Morbius lurks hugely in front but we’re drawn to our hero, Spidey. He’s poised for action. Perfect composition. Loses something after inks by Sylvain Despretz, and then logo. Best to enjoy the master here, then later.

I keep going back to the pencils. They’re “preliminary” but something’s lost. The art of a European Bande dessinée artist lost to two headers, corner box, “special giant size issue” “50 years…” ad nauseam.
I’m thrilled that I can see these at all. I’ve seen Mona Lisa (from a distance), and Van Gogh (up close, much to the chagrin of the guard at Musée d'Orsay) but this is art in its inception. A few hours of sketch time and we’re talking about it decades later.
Moebius is special. His work rings bells in me like few others, like Bill Everett, Wally Wood. He can be vile, surreal, magical and often rude, but he’s distinctive. Rare honor for an artist at his level to guest on a reprint.

BHOC: MARVEL TALES #102
This issue of MARVEL TALES reprinted the story where the series concluded its transition from the Silver Age into the Bronze Age. The book had been there for several months already at this point, with writer Gerry Conway taking over for Stan Lee. But this was the first issue in forever not illustrated by John Romita. Romita had defined the look of Spider-Man over the preceding decade (and he’d…

MARVEL TALES 122, April 1954. Writer unidentified; art by Al Gordon and Joe Kubert. Editor Stan Lee runs some rabid anti-commie stuff in his 1950s comics, but also things like this that anticipate the more obviously liberal Stan of the Marvel Age.

BHOC: MARVEL TALES #101
This issue of MARVEL TALES presented me with a slightly more manageable conundrum. I didn’t own a copy of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #124, the issue that was reprinted here, but I had read it. I believe my school buddy Don Sims had a copy, and I’d read it at his place at some point. Consequently, this issue would hold very few surprises for me. But it was still a relatively simple choice to drop 35 cents…
