Jack Kirby/Steve Ditko cover & art; 2nd app Doctor Octopus; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)Amazing Spider-Man #11 would already be a classic collectible just for the second appearance of Dr. Octopus. Penned by Stan Lee and illustrated by Steve Ditko, this issue is also celebrated for establishing Peter Parker's guilty conscience and complicated love life (both made worse by Betty Brant blaming Spidey for the apparent death of her brother). Spider-Man’s Silver Age treasures are continually growing in value and desirability, and this classic tale remains a smart target for collectors.
Artist Information
Jack Kirby is called 'The King of Comics' for a reason, during his career that spanned six decades he gave us many of the most iconic characters the medium would ever see. From his introduction of Captain America at the height of World War II it was clear he wasn't your ordinary comics artist. But it was his creative explosion at Marvel Comics in the 1960's that cemented his legacy, over a short period of time Kirby would give us The Fantastic Four, Iron Man, The Hulk, The X-Men, Thor, Ant-Man and Nick Fury just to name a few. Kirby would then go to DC and create his Fourth World, introducing Darkseid, Mister Miracle, The New Gods and a host of cosmic supporting players. Long live The King.
