First appearance of Amazing Spider-Man.Quite an
attractive copy with off-white/white pages despite its
grade. The presence of "Marvel Chipping" along the top edge
precludes it from reaching a higher grade. 25,667 points. |

Origin and first appearance of Spider-Man (Peter Parker). First appearance of Uncle Ben and Aunt May. I purchased it from ComicConnect in September 2016, just two months after I bought the 2006 Amazing Fantasy issue number #15 (the first appearance of Amadeus Cho). The original issue is the Silver Age Holy grail of comic books.

Old label. First appearance of new X-Men. First Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus and Thunderbird. The background to my purchase of this comic is that in May 2001 I purchased a raw 7.5 copy, and in January 2003 I part-exchanged it for an 8.5 slabbed copy. Then in January 2005 I part-exchanged that book for this 9.4 copy with Silver Acre Comics in the U.K.

First appearance of the Ant-Man (Hank Pym, not in costume). I purchased it from Comiclink in October 2010. I cashed in a low-performing investment that I had held for some time to pay for the comic and, so far, the comic has out-performed its predecessor
