American Update: Spider-Mania Max: High Grade Amazing #121 & #122: Deaths Of Gwen and the Goblin
*Marvel: Well, I don’t think anyone saw this coming back in 1973! In Amazing Spider-Man #121, Gwen Stacey died at the hands of the Green Goblin, and that villain perished himself in the very next issue. These landmark stories still resonate to this day, and although perhaps somewhat diluted by the return of both characters (hey kids, this IS comics!), the impact at the time was momentous and both issues still attract much collector interest. Our latest #121 is VF+, glossy with good tight staples and vivid cover colour; there are a couple of very minor pressure points near upper and lower staples that stop us grading it higher. Our new #122 is VF/NM with great cover gloss, tight staples and presents flat; just miniscule wear marks to the upper and lower right cover corners are really the only defects. Both are cents copies of course, since these issues were not distributed in the UK.
