From the historic 1st appearance of Spidey's symbiote suit!
The Tom DeFalco Collection

Over six months before Secret Wars #8, where we would learn how Spider-Man came to obtain his black Symbiote suit that would later bond with Eddie Brock to become the villainous Venom, the new-look Spidey would make his debut in Amazing Spider-Man #252. This is a historic page featuring Spider-Man (in his new costume in every panel!) after he had just taught a valuable lesson to two kids, which he had shown a breathtaking view of Manhattan. These are the same kids featured on the issue's cover. This page has been in the collection of Tom DeFalco since it's publication and has never been offered for sale previously. Pen and ink. Art is in excellent condition. Signed by Frenz and writer Tom DeFalco.

From Tom DeFalco's personal collection.
