Over the decades he's cycled between villainy and occasional redemption arcs, including stints with the Frightful Four and Sinister Six. This card is part of Comic Images' 1989 set built entirely around Todd McFarlane's art, released during his celebrated late-1980s run illustrating Amazing Spider-Man — the run that built his reputation before he launched his own creator-owned titles. The card's swirling, sand-in-motion composition is a good showcase of McFarlane's ability to render abstract, elemental characters with dynamic energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"auto\"\u003eShips same business day of cleared payment.
