American Comics Update: Superman Vs Spider-Man – Ground-Breaking Tabloid Crossover from 1976
*DC/Marvel: In 1976, after some delicate negotiations, Marvel and DC decided to create a team-up between their two iconic characters which proved too big for a regular-sized comic – so the tabloid-sized format, as seen in Marvel’s Treasury Editions and DC’s Limited Collectors’ Editions, was co-opted for this event! Superman and Spider-Man (as well as guest-villains Lex Luthor and Doctor Octopus) are note-perfect in this mega-sized saga, which triggered a whole batch of DC/Marvel crossovers in the years that followed. This cents copy is bright with vibrant cover colours, a totally intact squarebound spine, tight, firm staples, square corners and crisp white to off-white pages. Just one or two short creases at spine (not breaking colour) prevent an even higher grade. This is an outstanding copy from an original owner collection, bought new in 1976 in New York, and carefully preserved ever since.
