IMO certainly less sought after. I did see an MT 35 9.8 sell for a very high price, less than what Greg Reece has one listed for on ebay.

What's the sense in submitting 9.2 #35s when there is only 1 or 2 lunatics out there chasing them for some sentimental reason, and you have to list them at $50?

 

I was one of those lunatics chasing this book years ago. Big, Big Kraven fan. I don't believe I had a nice CGC copy but did have a pretty nice copy form Doug Sulipa. I believe it was a Manitoba copy. Not super high grade from what I recall but probably around a 9.2. I only went after the Marvel Tales with new covers. Also had a Marvel Tales 27. It was either a 9.4 or a 9.6 and it might have even been a Pedigree copy, which one I can't recall. Might have been Oakland.

This Non Canon Spidey was sold a few days ago for $2,147

Didn't somebody post a 9.8 85 here or in the silver asm thread? Could have sworn I saw one not too long ago

Not quite on the subject, but does anyone know if there were EVER any McFarlane Spidey virgin variants?

They're all great obviously but that giant size #4 is glorious! Eye appeal is perfect with the marvel banner in the ideal position. Congratulations sir!

Thank you!  It's been a labor of love trying to locate nicely centered/wrapped copies with White pages.  And also took several years searching to find this #122 that I am very happy with...

That's one awesome copy my friend.  One of my favorite Bronze age ASM covers as well.  Even if they weren't real in the story, love all the villians.

Man, I loved everything about this issue.  Great cover. Lovely Gwen. The Prowler.  Not to mention Hobie Brown.

Peter was fighting a war within himself over Gwen vs obligations of secrecy. His frustration in this issue was at its most intense other than 50. His anguish was avalanching so much it compelled him to tap on Gwen's window to reveal himself and tell the full story about her dad before Prowler intervenes. 

This ties in with issue 87 with whole thing about Hobie pretending to be spider-man. The story here is powerful! You could feel him being torn apart! Romita always drew Hobie and Randy Robertson the same . I like the way he drew Peter's facial expressions to fit the moment. 

And Stan was a heck of a storyteller!

I finally decided to just keep this book from a collection I've been selling for a friend. I remember buying this one off the rack and was a favorite storyline. It's not a key, but it's just so fresh.... it couldn't have been any nicer when it was brand new.....  GOD BLESS....

Whoa, nice book!   Did you get the signatures done or did you buy it that way?  I met John once, class act guy.

Thanks buddy I knew you'd be on that! That's another one you've noted Andru work from! Count yourself lucky for meeting the master 

No I bought it from long standing boardie "RockMyAmadeus". He got it signed through his facilitator. I wanted the Conway on this because of the Gwen thing. His idea

I don't know of any comic book cover virgin variants, but I offer up these, from Marvel Poster Book Vol. 1 #1, 1991. Book shown. These are just a few. The first is my fav. If you could tell me how to PM, I will send you scans for all 32!   The visible lines are the folds.

Yes, I like it both signatures.  Very nice book, another cover I really liked from the bronze age ASM.
