Sal Buscema

Life's journal

When I started reading comics (again) in 1993 on Amazing Spider-Man, in Italy, they were printing the arc drawn by Sal Buscema, with the Vulture and Harry Osborne as the Green Goblin. Also Vermin was an enemy of our hero.

Sal was very different from his brother in terms of style and page layout. But still he was able to capture feelings, powers, and energy of each character on the page. Maybe he won't be remembered as one of the greatest. But for me he will always be a good storyteller, and I'll miss him.

R.I.P. Sal…
