Based on the fabulous art of John Romita sr., here is my 1975 NOT-so-fabulous attempt to depict the supporting cast of the SPIDER-MAN comics of the day. Could this possibly BE any creepier?

1979 Albert Bigley INCREDIBLE HULK Painted Original Comic Art!
Done by me as a cover for my own 30-page comic based on 60s Hulk TALES TO ASTONISH tales (as recorded from the afternoon MARVEL SUPERHEROES cartoon reruns). Not bad for a 14-year old using ink and watercolors. I was inspired by the painted covers of the 70s RAMPAGING HULK magazines, with paintings by Ken Barr, Earl Norem, and Bob Larkin.

1979 Albert Bigley FANTASTIC FOUR Original Art! Herbie The Robot!
That's right. This 1979 ink and watercolor horror was part of a 30-page comic I created then. I would record the audio from the then-current NBC FF cartoon show (among others), and use it as a "Marvel style" synopsis for my comics, as a way to prepare myself for the "real thing" someday.
Note my George Perez facial shadow influences! Click to enlarge. If ya really wanna.

In My Room! 1982!
Yep! Here is a blurry pic (hey, I was busy in those days!) of my room, in Laurinburg, NC, from 1982.
And, yes, 90% of these books are STILL in my collection today.
Among the Hulk and Spider-Man (can you spot the Aurora version?)model kits on display, you can see tons of bagged Marvel Comics (I had left DC behind 4 years earlier, and won't return until the next year)! How many can YOU name? Click to enlarge!
