Amazing Fantasy #15 remains the Silver Age equivalent of Action Comics #1 as both a cultural artifact and an important investment for collectors. Jack Kirby ushered in Spider-Man’s first appearance with one of the comics biz most enduring classic covers; Steve Ditko took over the interior art while working with co-creator Stan Lee on this legendary debut. The story also shook up the comics industry with the premise of a neurotic Everyman gifted with extraordinary powers, plus a tragic backstory fueled by guilt over the death of Uncle Ben. All of this innovation continues to make 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.
Another copy of the top book of the Silver Age is available, one of three in this auction, this example has some telltale signs of wear but these imperfections only make it available to a wider swath of bidders who have been waiting all their lives to add this book to their investment portfolio. The deep brown and grey background have the subtle tones that push the historic image of Spidey’s first appearance right to the fore. If you don’t own this book, and have the means, you need to get one before the price shoots up again.
