Lebron James, returned to Cleveland last night wearing a Cavalier jersey for the first time since departing the team for the Miami Heat several years ago. It was a very public breakup, and left Cleveland fans extremely upset, but all of that changed when LeBron surprisingly decided to return to his hometown. King James return wasn't all good news as the Knicks spoiled his Cleveland return with 95-90 victory over the Cavaliers. King James performed more like Jester James Thursday night with 17 points on 5-of-15 shooting and committing 8 turnovers.
“We had LeBron leaving Cleveland in a rather spectacular fashion, and, in fairness, the return was just as incredible for Cavs fans,” says “ESPN The Magazine” Deputy Editor Otto Strong. “The most recent image gave us an opportunity to close the loop on LeBron's time away.”
“Otto suggested starting with the cover art from AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1, an image that would echo Peter Parker’s big return,” recalls Rosemann. “Then [artist] Miguel [Sepulveda] tried some different positions to echo the one-handed dunk pose that LeBron is known around the world for breaking out as he sails to the rim.”
