No #21 for me on the 21st, but I received this #28 today. It is notoriously tough to get a decent scan of this book, but try to imagine it without the blueish waves and you will get the picture

a top-5 spidey cover, imo.   very nice, sir.

Thank you! I am really happy with it - as you all probably already know its a tough task to find a decent looking copy even in higher grades. That otherwise striking cover just magnifies every single tiny flaw.

Terribly off-centered copy but really only have to complete my run and no ways a key book so it is what it is.....

Hey, a 7.5 #21 is nothing to sneeze at! Beautiful book.

Mine is really nice except for a subscription crease and the original owner cut out the order form for the MMMS. It doesn’t affect the story so I’m still happy with it.

only a few where our hero ain't even on the cover--at least in the silver age.

THE COLORS ARE JUST STUNNING ON THIS COPY!

I always assumed that was Spidey’s web that Gobbie is using, but is it? 

It’s very odd. Looks like a big snake skin.

I’ve always thought 23 was the best Ditko cover, at least as far as Spidey is concerned.  Love the pose.  

I’d post mine, but not trying to wake up the wife trying to dig it out.

also Missing AF#15...

 

but at this point, I dont even consider it "Missing" because Its something I'll almost certainly never be able to get now...

I almost got one in 2006, one of my biggest regrets.

would love just to get the 6 issues I'm missing from 1 to 20 though...theres still very much in reach..

I'm getting back into comics again hard, My father passed away last month and Its completely rocked my world, I'm trying to do things that make me happy to get through this awful time...and Comics are a double edged sword for me now because They bring me much joy but everything about them reminds me of my dad....but I'm focusing on the amazing times my dad and I had together with comics...

I havent really been into my collection and comics for about 2 years since my dad got sick...But since joining this board last month, I'm full on back on the train...and I'm gonna look to start adding a few Keys I need and I'd really like to start with those 6 ASM issues I need...

would love to say I'm complete from 1 to 241
