This iconic comic remains the Silver Age equivalent of Action Comics #1 as both a cultural artifact and a great investment for collectors. Jack Kirby ushered in the historic first appearance of Spider-Man on the classic cover; Steve Ditko took over the interior art as he worked with co-creator Stan Lee on this legendary debut. The story also set up the radical new concept of a neurotic Everyman behind the hero's mask All of this made for a timeless collectible that's kept Spider-Man (and his very human alter-ego) swinging for over 60 years as one of the most iconic and collectible characters in comics.
Amazing Fantasy #15 is a dream book for most collectors, this VG copy could be the perfect book for some motivated Spidey fan out there to fulfill their loftiest goal in the hobby, owning the biggest book of the Silver Age. There is some Marvel chipping along the right side of the cover, and some wear and tear around the edges, but there he is, Spider-Man, in his iconic first appearance, and the web-slinger is looking really good, clean, and clear, as bright reds and deep blues adorn his costume while he swings into history on the cover this top-ten key. Prices on this book almost never fail to appreciate, at any grade, so if you have the means, now is your chance, don’t miss out.
Overstreet Guide 2019 VG (4.0) value = $17,300

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.
