Spider-Man #22 Published March 1965
This is the second .5 I bought and now my oldest Spider-Man Comic book (as of this writing). The book looks like crap but who cares the price was great. After shipping and handling I paid less than nine dollars for a silver age Spider-Man book. I never read this story. My first spider-man stories were mostly in Marvel Tales, although I had the rare originals that I read over and over...like issue 181.
Plot Description is from CLZ:
J.Jonah Jameson is sponsoring a new art exhibit, and the Ringmaster's Circus of Crime (now without the Ringmaster and Called Masters of Menace) injures JJJ while stealing them. Spider-Man decides to track them down and recover the paintings.
"Preeeeeesenting... the clown, and his Masters of Menace!"

This was the first .5 book I bought. This is where the madness begun. and I don't even know why. The cover is simplistic, I am not saying it isn't good, but other than the white background, it is not the type of cover I normally got for. of course now that I have it I am even thinking about going to the other end of the spectrum and look for the 9.8 that I know is out there. The slab got damaged in transit, but the condition makes the slab look good.
I since had the book encapsulated with a new slab. I did this in June of 2019. The cost was only $15 dollars.

The slab also states that Don Heck also contributed to the art.

Original Thoughts:
I thought I had already added this but I was wrong. This is one of the books that was given to me by RonnyLama. A gesture I appreciate to this day.

There are a few covers that seem to catapult me into wanting to read the book before I even get home. This is one of those books. So much so that I will be mentioning this book in some upcoming top ten lists.

My first issue of Amazing Spider-Man I purchased was issue #251, the first I ever had, to my recollection was 181. I had a few more in-between but I never solidly collected since so many people made it to the 7-11 and purchased them all before I had the chance. I tried to collect religeously but still missed out on an issue here and there. This was one of them. It also wasn't the last. It's weird how many times holes would appear in my collection and then McFarlane was so hot, his books either sold out, or the back issue price was something I didn't want to pay.
CGC came along and there were a few I anted, but as with when these books first came out, it was the New Mutants that I craved first, followed by the X-Men and everything else after.
Once again, this book is here in this set because of RonnyLama. I have it in front of me as I type out these descriptions. And although they might not be about what's inside the book, it is about what the book is to me.I still have work soon, and I'm excited to add the next one, and I think Ron is just as excited for me to do so as well. However, it is time for me to go to work and I will have to add the rest another time.
