Set Description:
This run took a couple of years to assemble with a few major goals completed along the way. The first issue of Amazing Spider-man I ever bought myself was issue 292. After that I bought every issue from that point forward and went back and bought every issue before it. This collection was made up of books that I picked up through Heritage, ComicLink, Metropolis Comics, eBay, New York Comic Con, a few Board Members and most importantly there are a few books in this run that I picked up myself as a teenager and had slabbed by CGC.
Thanks to everyone who pointed me in the right direction, answered my questions, sold me books and met with me at NYCC. I will never be at the top of this list, but I will always be proud of this set.
Thanks to CGC for the 2013 Best Presentation award. I definitely smiled at that. Pretty cool.
