‘The Amazing Spider-Man ‘#1

Following the unexpected sales success of “Amazing Fantasy” #15, Spider-Man returned to the printed page in “The Amazing Spider-Man.” This book set records for Silver Age comics values in 2011 when a copy sold for $1.1 million. Apparently, there’s a lasting value to a comic book with a cover that features both Spidey and the Fantastic Four, proving yet again the viability of Marvel’s long-running strategy of mashing together all their action figures in explosive set pieces.
