SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN #5 NM- 9.2 off white pages 1977 PETER PARKER - VULTURE & 1ST APP HITMAN. Book is complete, staples are tight and clean, full gloss, no writing. The book has three spine ticks/checks, some right side edge bending/creasing, the top right corner is dog eared a bit, nice back cover with just one spine crease and some minor creasing around the outside corners. I have been collecting since 1992 and know how to grade books.
"Spider-Kill!" Part 2 of 2. Script by Archie Goodwin. Art by Sal Buscema (breakdowns) and Mike Esposito (finishes). Cover by Dave Cockrum. An awesome three-way battle rages outside Peter Parker's apartment! The Vulture vs. the Hitman vs. the Spectacular Spider-Man! As the cover shows, the situation looks grim for the web-slinger as he dangles in midair with the Vulture closing in and the Hitman lining up the kill shot! Will the spectacular one survive? Meanwhile, Flash Thompson and Mary Jane Watson investigate the mysterious reappearance of Sha Shan. (Note: The Hitman returns in Amazing Spider-Man 174.)
