About the item:

This published page from the 2015 SpongeBob SquarePants Annual-Size Super-Giant Swimtacular, features Ramona Fradon pencils and inks. It includes Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, characters from the hugely popular Nickelodeon SpongeBob SquarePants series, and parodies DC Comics’ Aquaman and Aqualad (Silver Age superheroes Fradon is perhaps most fondly remembered by comic fans for illustrating).  The page measures approximately 11 by 17 inches, is in excellent condition, and will be shipped with the utmost care.  It is also signed by hand by Fradon.  The cover to the issue this page appears in is shown for reference only – please note that it is not included with the original art.
