Spider-Man's first appearance in Amazing Fantasy #15 was an overnight sensation, leading to a hurriedly prepared solo title from co-creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. (Marvel still added the top-selling Fantastic Four's first crossover as insurance.) The book remains one of the cornerstones of comic collecting — featuring the first appearance of J. Jonah Jameson as one of the most iconic supporting characters in the history of comics. The book is also notable for introducing The Chameleon as Spidey’s first supervillain. The evil Master of Disguise has been one of the major missing figures in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and is finally set to make his big-screen debut in this year’s Kraven the Hunter film.
Thanks to the massive success of Spidey’s recent silver screen reboot for the MCU, the Web-Slinger’s already exceptionally high-profile stardom has gone into, and beyond the stratosphere, making Peter Parker’s alter ego 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 in dizzyingly high grades, or practically dissolving in your hands, this comic is an ironclad asset. This particular copy boasts some impressive traits, vivid colors, a solid spine, and sturdy construction all around, and that old-school CGC label gives this book that extra little oomph. This is a recommended purchase for those on the hunt for a very attractive copy of a timeless classic.
Overstreet Guide 2022 VF- (7.5) value = $25,500.
