Looking for black Spiderman piece by Vess.....

Had some fun today trying to figure out what I’m sending Gab to autograph in June . Had plenty to choose from including few rare prints

x

There actually was here is Ron Frenz on Facebook telling a fan in one of his threads why it happens . Essentially in eleventh hour or last minutes leading to printing the choice was made to use white as red and black during printing on smaller images formed blobs that like dbad visually . White was cleaner for printing reasons . That’s it!

I was called a huckster whatever term that is referring to me I assume as persons trying to pawn off books . That’s not me then someone rats on me to the mods for my statement on this member having a big mouth . You can’t force your opinion down my throat . So I get a warning for doing nothing more than post info . It’s a free country right? Seems to me people on here like to protect their own interests . I could care less . 100% bullying All I did was post a list of preview magazines that had black suit in it long before ASM 252 this happened . I was insulted being called names, warned by mods and still continues I’d like mods to offer the same warnings I received to the other members prolonging this !

Nobody cares about your opinion like you don’t care for yours ✌️

I think the ignorance from this forum and thread is obvious in the way members talk to other members because they had diff point of view. Goes to show you how people are . Calling people names and making fun others statements on their most prized books really must make you guys feel good. I don’t come on here often because of this very behaviour . It has zero to do with bringing a dead thread to life . I googled this topic I added info this happened. I know preview books are not licensed magazines etc but marvel Age was hence why CGC designated “ pre date ASM 252 “ . Heck I remember when Canadian edition didn’t exit on their labels so things def change . I’m not here to argue and could care less about being made fun of I won’t accept bullying by anyone for having an opinion

I just wanted to post information on books that predated ASM 252 and then was called a “ huckster “ like some guy trying to sell preview books I don’t own . I get warned by the mods about my posts which they said didn’t follow cgc guidelines . It’s a info thread and clearly it’s a click thing I’m not part of . Whats this all about? I stand by my comments Funny thing how that black and red suit exists today in many spider characters costume design . Marvel prob just didn’t want to pay for red inks bitd made it blank instead to save cash .

What makes you the expert ? Really I’m curious . I post cool info you’d shoot me down like some Spiderman police . Well cgc which this forum is recognizes the preview book marvel Age 12 . Black and Red was first design and first app of the costume ! That’s that

There is one publication even earlier than listed group I have I’m not sure on its distribution or as viable contender but here it is for the purist out there The Comic Journal # 85 (October 1983 )

Marvel Age article continued ...

Alright I’m going to throw my two cents in here as I feel I have some useful information on this topic . I know cgc recognizes ASM 252 and marvel team up 141 as 1st apps of black Spidey what if I told you guys and gals out there that it’s not right . Mmmmmm you say well ok here it is: the original black spidey concept was first dropped in this issue: Amazing Heroes # 35 November 15 /1983 yes a year before any marvel licensed comic had this . If you read article it refers to the new BLACK and RED costume but because these early fanzines magazines were printed in black and white you don’t actually see this colour combo in proper colour print until Marvel Age 12 (1984) few months prior to all known first published appearances. If this isn’t cool enough here are the other very htf fanzines that predate all known published black Spidey appearances . In this order Amazing Heroes 35 (November 1983) The Comic Reader 215 (December 1983) Heroes Hotline ( 1983 ) Amazing Heroes 39 ( January 1984 ) Marvel Age 12 ( March 1984 ) only colour publication in comic book format [ photos are of interior article inside Marvel Age 12]

Some other beauties

Here are a few I found recently I think are very cool and I don’t see them often . The anniversary cover 1:50 Hommage to Silver Surfer 4 is so cool!

Can someone send me link to a complete Amazinf Spiderman variant checklist 300-700 or better please . I can’t find one

Another two just listed : Batman vs Joker killer Croc

Art that recently sold from UK. All through one shop. Anybody could get them if you’re early enough . Roughly $ 1500.00 USD per piece

Now on a more serious note. Something real and original and amazing ....

It’s liquid enough for me. If I needed money same day well sounds like I’m in trouble if it’s a comic sale I’m dependent on ....well nuff said.

I’d list my AF15 on eBay on open auction and let it ride . It would guaranteed get thousands starting at 1penny and wherever it ends it ends . It only really sucks for flippers coming in now which I never was .

Get rid of the ads ill list on eBay it’s safer . Thanks
