MARVEL COMICS
"A definitive 'Must-Have' for Frankie fans and Dell 'Otto collectors!"
Each of the eight (8) issues of Jason Aaron and Mike Deodato, Jr.'s ORIGINAL SIN Maxi-Series served up a plate of super-hero secrets, mystery, mistrust and paranoia to Marvel readers every month, in a story featuring all the heroic characters even the most casual comic book reader couldn't help but recognize from the movies of Marvel Studios' continuing cinematic saga.
While the "Top Talent" creative team, content and the characters were the series' primary hooks, Marvel's assignment of superstar GABRIELE DELL'OTTO to the series was their coup de grace, in a brilliant and very successful move to elevate Original Sin while appealing to store retailers and serious comic book collectors. Dell'Otto had become one of the most collectable of specialty cover artists, known especially for the dark colors of his palette, and his creation of eight consecutive incentivized covers featuring Marvel's "movie-star" heroes was too much for either to overlook.
A decade later, Dell'Otto's octet of Retailer Incentive 1:50 Variant Covers has stood the test of time (although the same can't be said for the substance of Original Sin itself). Of the artist's eight covers, Original Sin #2 featuring Black Panther and Original Sin #4 featuring THE PUNISHER have emerged as the most collectable, the inherent darkness of both characters captured iconically by an artist whose expertise is the conveyance of the same.
- A Must-Have for any collector of Dell'Otto cover art as well as serious fans of the classic Frank Castle, Original Sin #4 featuring The Punisher by Gabriele Dell'Otto is a work of art that every comic book collection deserves. Add a gorgeous High-Grade copy to your own -- today.
