The Amazing Spider-Man #69 Ben Harvey.
Oh, look, another week, another Spider-Man comic. But wait, this isn’t just any Spider-Man comic; it’s The Amazing Spider-Man #69 Ben Harvey Variant. Yes, folks, because what the world truly needed was yet another variant cover to add to our ever-growing collections.
Let’s dive into this masterpiece, shall we? The cover showcases the Black Cat, Felicia Hardy, in a scene so original, it’s practically groundbreaking.

The light grey tones set the ambiance for this pivotal moment, making us all question our own existence.

But who is the genius behind this melancholic artwork? Enter Ben Harvey, the illustrator hailing from Philadelphia, PA, known for his versatility in various artistic styles. His career, spanning over 15 years, has earned him the attention of esteemed publishing houses such as Marvel, DC Comics, IDW Publishing, Dynamite Entertainment, and Valiant Entertainment. Harvey’s style ranges from American comics to Japanese manga, utilizing a range of traditional and digital media with a focus on Copic Marker, Watercolor, and Gouache.

The light grey tones enveloping the scene amplify the gravity of the moment, inviting readers to ponder the depth of their relationship and the circumstances leading to this poignant tableau.
But let’s not get too carried away with the artistry and emotion. After all, it’s just another variant cover in the endless sea of comic book collectibles. So, if you’re a fan of Black Cat, Spider-Man, or just enjoy collecting variant covers that tug at your heartstrings, this one’s for you.
