*Marvel: Smack in the middle of Todd McFarlane’s run on Amazing Spider-Man comes issue #316, featuring the first cover appearance of Venom, the character that defined this period. The cover image portrays what the character is all about. There’s little doubt that Venom is one of the Marvel characters originating later than the Bronze Age who has gone on to become a cornerstone of the Marvel Universe. This is a beautiful high grade copy, great colour and gloss, tight and firm staples, white to off-white pages, square corners. Only the absolute tiniest of stress marks at spine (and just a couple at that) prevent an even higher grade being awarded.
