How do you feel about a thread with all the best Silver battle covers? ( there's a bunch) I feel pretty good about it. I'll start.

My favorite Ditko Spidey cover: Nice book - that is my favorite as well Thanks. It's my undercopy (picked up a graded 8.5 right before Xmas in a trade with Tortoise). Was thinking about putting it up in the Marketplace. I got this one from Blue808 a few years back.
I know it sounds crazy but this cover to me has a Mac Raboy feel - it is just so fluid and elegant - almost effortless which is why I loved Raboy so much.

It doesn't look much like Ditko, does it? The Spidey looks more Romita than Ditko (similar to the famous sequence in #33).

Maybe that's it - the fingers are Ditko for sure. The colors and depth are great. The more we talk about it, the more I want to upgrade my copy now

This one was already on photbucket. Plus, I don't have a scanner that will do slabs.
And, you're right, the 8.5 is lovely.
