One Month to Live #[nn]

A striking 2010 Marvel release, this collected edition brings together the One Month to Live story under a haunting cover painted entirely by Michael Del Mundo. The image says it all: a lone man in a white shirt stands atop a giant clock face as dollar bills swirl chaotically overhead, while the rocky visage of the Thing looms on one side and Spider-Man peers in from the other — two Marvel giants framing a very ordinary figure facing something extraordinary. Del Mundo's painterly style gives the whole composition a moody, cinematic weight that draws you in before you've read a single page.
