5.5 - Nice book.
Weren't they all NEWSSTAND EXCLUSIVES back then? What year did Marvel start mail subscriptions?
And when did the NEWSSTAND vs. DIRECT start? 90s?Direct issues began to be distributed in the late 70's.
The direct program began line-wide in the month that ASM #193 in June of '79. From ASM #165 to ASM #192 there was a "pilot" direct program where there were direct issues issued in 3 packs. These are referred to as Whitman variants but they were distributed at other chains as well. IMO... these directs are some of the rarest variants in ASM V1 and I've been trying to find high grade copies of the ASM #165 to #192 issues... very tough to track down, don't think I have any 9.8 candidates but I have a few NM- copies here and there. Mostly FN and below though.
I normally keep that hunt pretty close to the vest I don't think many collectors are hip to these just yet
E: The mail subscriptions started very, very, very early in the ASM run. I don't think I've seen single digit ASMs with subscription creases but I've definitely seen issues in the teens and 20's with sub creases

Not sure if anyone knew this but these books used to ONLY be sold on newsstands! If you're a novice I get it but if you're a very seasoned collector like myself you know that newsstand issues are worth much more than direct copies - they just are - and this issue is a NEWSSTAND EXCLUSIVE! I think its value has been dramatically undersold for years, someday folks might realize that these issues - too - are collectible

With all due respect to the Jackal, isn't it the fact that it's the Punisher's first appearance that makes it massive key?
Jackal cloned Peter Parker and created Ben Reilly who will be at the helm of Amazing Spider-Man for... it looks like a pretty short run since there's a Ben Reilly Spider-Man #1 dropping in Q1 '22. But still, Jackal did that not Big Pun

Wow lots of Franken-fans here

Jackal was more important before they retconned Norman Osborn to be the mastermind of the Clone Sage - the greatest retcon in Spider-Man history IMO - but he's still a significant villain in Spidey's gallery. In my estimation one of the top 5 villains since Stan Lee left the book
So give it to me straight, gents

Bats is great! Much like Spider-Man there's so much published that there's lots of top notch storytelling and a loooooooot of dreck. Both properties were overleveraged in the 90s to put it lightly but lots of top artists have been on the book over the years
