The Night Gwen Stacy Died Cover Art Expected To Go For Over Two Hundred Thousand

The Night Gwen Stacy Died Cover Art Expected To Go For Over Two Hundred ThousandThe cover artwork to Amazing Spider-Man #121 by John Romita Sr from 1973 is up for auction in nine days time from Heritage Auctions and is expected to bring in over $200,000.

The title of the story, The Night Gwen Stacy Died was only revealed at the end.

A very controversial comi at the time, it is considered by some as the day with which comic books "lost their innocence." Although, you know, Zap #1 came out a few years before that…

So, anyone got some spare change? I'm sure if we all cobble together we could raise enough… they do it on Kickstarter all the time.
