      Murphy Anderson - Justice League of America #60 Cover Original Art (DC, 1968).

      Est: -

      Murphy Anderson - Justice League of America #60 Cover Original Art (DC, 1968). Queen Bee returns to buzz the Justice League, and Batgirl is really feeling the sting, especially since her comrades have been transformed into winged worker drones! Another in a long line of breathtaking JLA covers by Murphy Anderson (possibly from layouts by interior artist Mike Sekowsky), which features a powerful girl vs. girl composition and slick renderings of the various members, in this case Superman, Flash, Green Lantern, the Atom, and Green Arrow. Classic Silver Age covers from this much-beloved series are impossible to find on the open market, so you'll really feel "stung" if you let this beauty pass. The artwork is matted to 9.75" x 15", along with a VG copy of the original comic. Also included is the original hand-colored color guide. The logo and text are recent replacements.
