Spider-Man Comic Stuff
After being bitten by a radioactive spider, Peter Parker, a shy high school student, suddenly finds himself with the ability to sense danger, stick to walls, and possessed of the proportional strength of a spider. when his uncle is killed by a burglar, Peter resolves to use his powers to fight crime. Thus is born the Amazing Spider-man, Marvels most popular character of all time.
The Amazing Spider-man is the flagship of the Spider-man titles - list which has included Marvel Team-Up, Spectacular Spider-man, Spidey Super Stories, Web of Spider-man, and (just plain old) Spider-man. Since its first issue in 1963, it has featured the wisecraking arachnid in many of his greatest adventures and has introduced such famous super-villains as the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, The Kingpin, The Vulture, Molten Man, Silvermane and Venom. Years later, Marvel restarted the series at #1, hungry for the first issue orders but irritating many long-time collectors.The issues that follow are remembered as Marvel classics. Here is an opportunity to own some affordable, Super High Grade copies of these early Amazing Spider-man "classics", with only the most minor of imperfections allowable in this non-CGC graded comics.
Item Description Stuff
4.5 VERY GOOD+ (VG): Fits the criteria for Very Good but with an additional virtue or small accumulation of virtues that improves the book’s appearance by a perceptible amount.
The average used comic book. A comic in this condition shows some significant moderate wear, but still has not accumulated enough total defects to reduce eye appeal to the point that it is not a desirable copy. Cover shows moderate to significant wear, and may be loose but not completely detached. Moderate to extreme reduction in reflectivity. Can have an accumulation of creases or dimples. Corners may be blunted or abraded. Store stamps, name stamps, arrival dates, initials, etc. have no effect on this grade. Some discoloration, fading, foxing, and even minor soiling is allowed. As much as a 1/4" triangle can be missing out of the corner or edge; a missing 1/8" square is also acceptable. Only minor unobtrusive tape and other amateur repair allowed on otherwise high grade copies. Moderate spine roll may be present and/or a 1" spine split. Staples may be discolored. Minor to moderate staple tears and stress lines may be present, as well as some rust migration. Paper is (no worse than) brown but not brittle. A minor acidic odor can be detectable.
