Spider-Man Comic StuffAfter 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 Stuff9.4 NEAR MINT (NM): Nearly perfect with only minor imperfections that keep it from the next higher grade. Minor feathering that does not detract from the overall beauty of an otherwise higher grade copy is acceptable for this grade. The overall look is "as if it was just purchased and read once or twice." (If you're careful with handling, there's no way to tell how many times a comic has been read, or if unread, so don't always believe that 'unread' hype.) Subtle bindery/printing defects are allowed. Bindery tears must be less than 1/16" on Silver Age and later books, although on Golden Age books bindery tears of up to 1/4" have been noted. Cover is flat with (almost) no surface wear. Inks are bright with high reflectivity and a minimum of fading. Generally well centered and firmly secured to interior pages. Corners are cut square and sharp with ever-so-slight blunting permitted. A 1/16" bend is permitted with no color break. No creases. Small, inconspicuous, lightly penciled, stamped or inked arrival dates are acceptable as long as they are in an unobtrusive location. No soiling, staining or other discoloration apart from some slight foxing. Spine is tight and flat. No spine roll or split allowed. Staples are generally centered; may have slight discoloration. No staple tears are allowed; almost no stress lines. No rust migration. In rare cases, a comic was not stapled at the bindery and therefore has a missing staple; this is not considered a defect. Any staple can be replaced on books up to Fine, but only vintage staples can be used on books from Very Fine to Near Mint. Mint books must have original staples. Paper is (no worse than) off-white to cream, supple and fresh. No hint of acidity in the odor of the newsprint. Centerfold is firmly secure. Slight interior tears are allowed.
