Beauty! I’m without a copy of ASM 5 these days.

 I guess I’ll have to be nice to Mr. Parker.

this should go for all of you.

I had ‘em all once. These days I’m down to 2,3,4,8,10, 15, 17 and this’un here...

If it’s important to you, it’ll happen!

3, 21, 23, 25, 26, 32 are the ones I have from 1 to 38 era.

I only need 2,3,6,9,10 and Annual #1 for a complete run through today. Hoping to knock out at least 2 & 3 this year. I also have full runs of a majority of all the other Spider-man titles. No AF #15 though  

 I'm only  a little obsessed.

Home stretch! 
 

(I sold off many later ASMs to help fund my AF15 purchase years ago. My Spidey collection now fits into two CGC Boxes. I like the space but miss the books, well except for the JMS run.)

I picked up an ASM 22 in last weekend’s heritage auction. Anyone see a nice looking 10 for sale? Now that 1-50 is complete, I’m debating extending the run further. What’s a good stopping point?

I stopped my original run at 130. My older brother stopped buying off the rack at 130.

I would think 150 personally as the 130-150 story lines are a great read.

Some of the Ross Andre stuff is pretty good too.

No argument here!

I so wish I was down to needing a few for full run from 1 to present. Not counting annuals. I need 304 issues to have 1 to present. Annuals I need a good chunk I only have a few issues there.

12/69 marks the end of mine.

12/69 is the end of my current "slabbed run in grade" pursuit; used to have them thru 400, but have sold off much of 80 and up.

What are your target grades?  Slabbed or raw?

Is there a significance to that date? The last ASM issue published in calendar year 69 was 82

end of silver age to me.

Same here Billy, I cut my run at 79.

I can only speak for myself here, but since Billy chose the same issue as I did to end the run, his reasoning is probably the same: issue 79 has a cover date of Dec 69.

Any love for Spidey #36, the first appearance of the Looter? I see no way that I could ever upgrade this copy, so it's a keeper.
