As JB said earlier, artists could always count on pages 2-3 being available for a double page splash.  When Jack Kirby made the move to DC, he started doing double splashes on every page 2-3, and he kept this tactic when he returned to Marvel.  His DC double splashes were often massive battles on an epic scale for the Fourth World wars, but the example below is from The Demon #1.
