Steve Ditko cover/art; 1st app of Doctor Octopus (Otto Octavius); debut of "Spider's Web" fan letter section; Comic Book Impact Rating 8 (CBI)Every great hero needs a great villain—and Doctor Octopus created a top collectible with his debut as one of the most enduring bad guys in Marvel history. Amazing Spider-Man #3 is beloved by fans for a classic cover and wild pages packed with melodramatic Stan Lee dialogue and Steve Ditko's feverish artwork. Many collectors are on the prowl for this book as the excitement builds for new variations on Doc Ock as the MCU expands into the Multiverse.
Tied for second-highest graded, this jaw dropping beauty of a book looks like it just rolled off the presses -- the reds and blues of Spidey's costumes are especially rich and inviting, and the strong black outline of our guest villain are so strong they seem almost to punch off the paper. Marvel collectors know how tough it is to find these early issues in nice shape -- boy, this one's a killer.
