*Marvel: Despite the many issues of Amazing Spider-Man which have passed through our hands, we’re always chuffed when an early copy by the ‘real’ Spidey artist, Steve Ditko, comes into our possession, and this week’s acquisition is no exception. Having made his debut in Spidey’s second issue, the Vulture returns in issue #7, and despite his physically frail appearance, the pinioned pensioner has survived numerous deaths, remodels and replacements by younger counterparts, and his appearance in ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ has enhanced the character’s cinematic popularity. This early Vulture appearance is a GD+ p copy: moderate wear and light creasing at spine, corners and edges, but largely unimpaired cover scene with only a faint historical stain on the background colour, in the vicinity of Spidey’s midriff. Staples still firm at cover and centrefold, interior pages off-white and unmarked. On sale at £150. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
