Ross Andru was GREAT. His ability to convey perspective through simple line work (his scenes of Spider-Man swinging above the city were vertigo inducing), without descending to the cartoony or stylized level of Todd MacFarlane or Neal Adams, was amazing. His art was sometimes called "workman like," a weak, inaccurate and uninformed critique in my opinion.
The "workman" or "house style" rubbish that people throw at Ross Andru, Al Milgrom, Keith Pollard, Don Perlin, Werner Roth and even Sal Buscema has always been completely redundant. What is bad about being a professional delivering art to specification?
Ross Andru’s art was great. Grizzly will always be a funny side character trivia note to me but I’m glad that someone was able to do something with him later. Did they ever do anything with Will O the Wisp after the 80s?
Last I remember seeing Will o' the Wisp was just before Mephisto marriage thing. Chameleon formed a new Sinister Syndicate style team with him, Electro, Molten Man, Puma, Scarecrow, Mr. Hyde and Swarm the Nazi Bee Guy. The guy who made Riverdale wrote it.
Grizzly is basically just Rhino, but a bear suit. Please tell me that Grizzly has some sort of strength enhancement though, because Spidey should be able to deck any non-enhanced human being.
The infamous Doodle Saga was a controversial new direction for Amazing Spider-Man. Coming so soon after Gwen's death, I think the scribbles turned a lot of people off the book for years.
A Grizzly-Ursa Major team-up would be paws-itively awesome.
They made a toy of Ursa Major and a few people customised it to be Grizzly instead.

Score one for Nemesis. I liked that the Lass pun.
I guess it’d be the same sort of feeling as when you’re 70 minutes into a film and you think you might as well finish it.

His suit is an exo-skeleton that increases his strength. Spidey destroys it next ish.
This was the last issue I bought of ASM and someone drew all over the inside of the comic..

I think it's funny that Jackal wears skin colored underwear. His own skin color that is.
He can throw (hoy) them in the wash together.
Jackal is actually a white dude in the early issues. In the 90's he turns himself into an actual jackal.
@@Bonesph Don't forget when he turned himself into a g-g-g-ghost zombie in a turban in the 80s.
OMG... your nemesis sucks. *eyeroll* You need a better nemesis!
A better nemesis might actually provoke or plot against me.
