Out of the three or four old Marvel Team-Up issues we recently sacrificed to gods of art, this was the most awesome panel. We gave it a little 4×4 canvas of its own to live out the rest of its unnatural life.
In the recessed area on the back, we added three things. Two of them are seeds, and one is a cicada we painted chrome. These symbols of rebirth and regeneration will help the good Captain with his liberation! The scraps behind the main panel come from a drawing of Phoenix — another symbol of rebirth.

Isn’t this the one with the Basilisk?

Robert, good call! Captain Marvel and Spidey take on the amazingly silly totally evil Basilisk. Our favorite pieces of dialogue: “Sweet Sadie! Those rays from his eyes… they melted my gun!” and “Outwitted him? I don’t even know what’s going on!”

Yeah, I remember that! Wasn’t the Basilisk a guy named Basil Elks? I remember some fan wrote that Captain Marvel shouldn’t have called the Basilisk by name because he hadn’t heard it yet. Those were the days!

Basil Elks indeed. He has an accident that grants him amazing powers. The first things he sets out to do is make a goofy costume, commit crime, and DESTROY SPIDER-MAN – because, as you know, that’s the key ingredient to any plan for world domination.
