*Marvel: Well, your demand for the early adventures of Amazing Spider-Man seems insatiable – bless your hearts – so we’re happy to oblige with issue #11, a Stan Lee/Steve Ditko classic featuring the second-ever appearance of Doctor Octopus, who vies with the Green Goblin for the position of Spidey’s #1 foe. This is a low grade pence priced copy with a great, colourful central cover image. There is a tear (without loss) of about 3 cm across the masthead figure of Spidey; this goes through the comic to a lessening degree. The spine base is also split by about 4 cm, with small, slight loss to the bottom of the spine and through interior pages, nowhere near story panels. Corners are blunt with fine colour-breaking creasing along most edges. Staples are attached at centrefold, but weakening, although still attached, at spine. Pages are a quite nice off-white.
