*Marvel: Of the post-Ditko run of Amazing Spider-Man, one of the most in-demand issues is #50, wherein artist John Romita hit his stride and started doing some of the finest work of his career. The cover to #50, with Peter’s temporary abandoning his Spider-Man identity, has become etched in the minds of a generation, endlessly imitated and ‘homaged’, and as if that wasn’t enough, this epic issue featured the first appearance of the Kingpin, one of Spider-Man’s most significant villains! (Later shoplifted by Daredevil, but that was a decade or two in the future…) Our newest copy of ASM #50 is GD, a pence copy with light spine and corner wear. Centrefold is loose, cover firmly attached. Largely unimpaired cover scene, with only a few tiny flecks of broken colour on Spidey’s torso. Interiors clean, off-white, flexible, a mid-grade copy with considerable eye appeal. GD p £65. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
