Spider-Man went swinging into the Bronze Age with the first appearance of the Punisher, whose brutal debut would lead to this book becoming on the first major key issues of the 1970s. There's even more historical significance with the issue offering the debut of the Jackal. The evil alter ego of biology professor Miles Warren would go on to become the main antagonist in the '90s Clone saga and the 2011 "Spider-Island" story line.
The Punisher, of course, would appear in multiple self-titled comic series and be featured in, three major action films. Frank Miller's also revived the characters original fan base when he brought the vigilante into his Daredevil title. More recently, the Punisher found renewed fame with a hit Netflix series. With a confirmed role in Disney+'s upcoming Daredevil: Born Again series, the Punisher is now wanted more than ever!
This is one of the highest-graded copies of Amazing Spider-Man #129, one of the biggest books of the Bronze Age, featuring one of the more surprising success stories in comics history. Along with Hulk #181, Wolverine and Punisher came along at just the right time and changed the landscape of comic books forever. Both starting life as villains, the two characters would be transformed into heroes with an attitude, ushering in the antihero which would dominate comics in the 90s and beyond. There is not much to say about this copy because it is perfect in every way, unaffected by the passage of time, this glorious 9.8 copy is one of many available at this grade, but that has not stopped the ongoing upward trajectory of this book, it seems like nothing will ever stop the rise of ASM #129, a true classic that has helped the Bronze Age earn some much-deserved respect.
Overstreet Guide 2020 NM- (9.2) value = $1,900.
