I imagine The Thing could engage in gas warfare as well.

careful flaming on, johnny!

They could have used that in their crimefighting, like Wolverine & Colossus's Fastball Special.

It would have been more than enough to handle The Puppet Master!

Greetings fellow webheads...

Below is the current status of my Ditko CGC 5.0 run.  The run itself is complete (minus cameos which I’m not interested in). I've collected AF15, ASM1-38, ASM Annuals 1-2, ST Annual 2, ST 115 all in CGC 5.0.  39 of the 43 books feature strictly White Pages.  Issues 24, 27, 29 and 35 are OWW pages that I’m keeping as placeholders.  If someone reading this has any of those 4, I'm currently offering my 5.0 OWW copies plus full GPA cash for WP replacements.  Anyway without further adieu...

Hello all fellow webheads...

Below is the current status of my Ditko CGC 5.0 run.  I've collected AF15, ASM1-23, 25-26, 28, 30-34, 36-38, ASM Annual 1-2, ST Annual 2, ST 115 all with White Pages.  I've collected 24, 27, 29, and 35 in 5.0 but with OWW pages.  I'm keeping those 4 as placeholders for now until I find WP replacements.  But the Ditko run itself is complete (minus cameos which I'm not after).  Any leads on those 4 book I need in WP is always appreciated.  If someone reading this has any of those 4, I'm currently offering my 5.0 OWW copies plus full GPA cash for WP replacements.  Anyway without further adieu...

Incredible collection and best of luck on finishing it in the grade and page quality you're after!

Time to expand the run?

Haha no…  After going 1-20 complete with WP I expanded it to a full Ditko run out to issue 38.  While the run is complete in 5.0 I still only have 39 of the 43 total books with WPs.  When I eventually replace them so they’re all WP I’ll be done run chasing.  I’ll then focus on upgrading my other ASM keys between issues 39-365 which are all 8.0+ in varying grades

Mine is only Off-white, looks pretty good to me though!

Picked this nice copy up here on the Boards.  Interesting back-story of being a Vietnam Vet's copy which was kept in a dresser drawer (which is how I "stored" my comics throughout the 1970s) and which his mom discovered after he'd moved away.  Don't know if it's true, but it does sound plausible.

purty!

VERY sharp copy!!!

In my very biased long time Spider-Man fan opinion, ASM 5 is one of the great covers of the Silver Age with that wonderful early Ditko art. So much happening on that cover.
