1st appearance of Spider-Man (Peter Parker) w/ origin, 1st Uncle Ben & Aunt May (8/62); Jack Kirby cover, Steve Ditko art; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 10 (CBI)
Amazing Fantasy #15 ushered in the first appearance of Spider-Man, quickly becoming the Silver Age equivalent of Action #1 as both a cultural artifact and important investment for collectors. The teen hero shook up the comics industry in his first appearance as a neurotic Everyman gifted with extraordinary powers. There was also a different kind of tragic backstory fueled by Peter Parker’s guilt over the death of his Uncle Ben. Marvel brought in Jack Kirby to catch the eyes of kids with one of the best covers in comics history; Steve Ditko took over the interior art while working with co-creator Stan Lee on this legendary debut.
All that innovation made for a timeless collectible that's kept Spider-Man (and Peter Parker) swinging for over 60 years as one of the most iconic and collectible characters in comics. Spidey remains the biggest star of all variations on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, helping to establish Amazing Fantasy #15 as one of the most reliable investments in comics history.

There are several Spider-Man movies currently scheduled for release in theaters, including Beyond the Spider-Verse, Brand New Day, and Tom Holland’s fourth installment of his Spidey franchise. It seems that Spider-Man will never go out of style, and his first appearance will never stop being a top-tier comic for investment collectors. This copy of Amazing Fantasy #15 has been graded VG- by CGC. The book retains its colors quite well, while the majority of wear is relegated to the perimeter of the cover. At any grade, and any time, owning a copy of AF#15 should be one of the main goals of any serious comic book collector.
