DESCRIPTION
ow pages; sharp right edge!
Ditko cover & art; origin retold; 1st Chameleon; 1st J. Jonah Jameson; Fantastic Four cover (3/63) Comic Book Impact rating of 9 (CBI)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 brought in the top-selling Fantastic Four on the cover 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 including The Chameleon as Spidey’s first supervillain. The shape-shifting spy 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.
This is an incredibly clean and well-preserved copy, the classic Ditko cover hits all the marks, as resplendent reds, oranges, and yellows are complemented by cool smooth gray background tones that push the heroes to the fore. Sharp corners, tight binding, and rock-solid construction complete the pretty picture. This first issue in the historic run of ASM is a surefire investment book, get yours now before the next Spidey flick to hit theaters sends prices on another upward trajectory.
Overstreet Guide 2022 VF (8.0) value = $30,000.
