Amazing Spider-Man #1 was destined to become a pop-culture classic as Marvel rushed out Spider-Man's second appearance after his smash debut in Amazing Fantasy #15. (Marvel still added the top-selling Fantastic Four in their first crossover to bring in new readers.) This first issue has since remained a cornerstone of comic collecting — with co-creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko bringing in the first appearance of J. Jonah Jameson as one of the most iconic supporting characters in the history of comics. Fans also meet JJJ's astronaut son John, along with seeing The Chameleon's debut as Spidey’s first supervillain.
Of course, Amazing Spider-Man #1 has added value for establishing both Peter Parker and Spider-Man as major influences in building the Marvel Universe. This is the first issue of a title that would feature an extended cast of classic villains who'd torment heroes across all the Marvel titles. The book also provides Peter with a supporting cast of family and friends that's endured for decades, with nearly all finding big-screen fame in Marvel movie projects.
________________________________________________
Thanks to the massive success of Spidey’s silver screen reboot in the MCU, the Web-Slinger’s already exceptionally high-profile stardom has gone into, and beyond, the stratosphere. Peter Parker’s alter ego is easily one of the most recognizable pop culture phenomenons of all time, well past the world of comics alone, and into the global zeitgeist. When it comes to advice on investing in comics some books are automatic no-brainers, AMS #1 is one of those books, whether they are in dizzyingly high grade, or practically dissolving in your hands, this comic is an ironclad asset. This particular FN copy boasts some impressive traits, vivid colors, a solid spine, and sturdy construction all around, presenting as higher than its designated grade, this is a recommended purchase for those on the hunt for a very admirable copy of a timeless classic.
