DESCRIPTION
white pgs; QES Certified: Criteria met: impressive prime focal area + sharp right edge with no chipping + deep color strike (red, grey & green)
Jack Kirby cover/art; 1st app of Vulture; 1st app of the Terrible Tinkerer; 1st "Spider-Sense Tingling" COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 8 (CBI)
Co-creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko played it fairly striaght for the first issue of the Amazing Spider-Man, setting up their neurotic teen hero against super-spy the Chameleon and some garden-variety thugs. For a follow-up, though, the villainous Vulture showed up to create yet another classic cover of the fledgling series. Steve Ditko's nightmarish visuals were allowed to flower in full with a bold red backing that had never been attempted on a Marvel book.
Bearing a stunning 9.0 with white pages, this copy of the second issue of Amazing Spider-Man is a sight to behold. Featuring the first appearances of the Vulture and the Tinkerer as well as a very early appearance of Spider-Man, this is a glorious achievement in comics, both in its creation and its amazing preservation throughout the last 60 years. Spider-Man and the Vulture vibrantly pop on this classic Ditko cover, made even better by the unblemished classic Spider-Man logo. This is a mind-blowing copy and a very rare find. A VF/NM copy of this book is already worth staggering amounts, and will continue to increase every year as more and more generations grow up loving Spider-Man.

Overstreet Guide 2021 VF/NM (9.0) value = $10,150.
