Also, the pedant in me can’t resist pointing out that in a couple instances, you don’t have the first 10 appearances.

For example, you’d need to add FF Annual 1 and Strange Tales annual 2 to have Spidey’s 1st 10 apps.

But I totally get what you were shooting for, and it is a staggering achievement!

I agree 100% on ST Ann #2, but I’ve always taken the other side of the argument over FF Ann #1. As a retelling of the ASM #1 story, albeit from a different perspective, it feels like a glorified reprint to me rather than a new appearance. YMMV

I posted this elsewhere because I didn’t see that this topic chain existed, but here is what I call the top 10 top 10. First ten appearances of the first ten marvel heroes/groups. All reader copies, but it is complete!

I’m also going to note that without FF #12 and #25 you’re overlooking some early Hulk appearances. ASM #14 as well for that matter, though I’m no expert on the Hulk’s chronology to get to exact numbers on those appearances. 

Still an extremely impressive group of books!

I consider it to be a distinct appearance, tho I see your point. It is a glorified reprint, but it’s extra glorious!

What would our heroes be without great villains to fight...

Villains group shots...

Mephisto dr. Octopus and kingpin are on their way....

Missing but will be mine...galactus (ff49) Loki (Jim 85) ultron (av55) and red skull (cap comics 7) 

Missing a few others like vulture and sandman but they are represented on annual 1. I don't want to pay big bucks for second tier villains and I missed the boat on getting those 2 cheap. That's ok. I think I'll live. 

Most books are 1st apps...a couple are teamup or first battle (got to have sabre fighting wolfie 1st time...for me it's more important than if14 and cheaper)

Any other big villains I missed?

This might be the single most fascinating picture I've ever seen....and Mean that Literally....

 

first of course its a collection of The most of the ICONIC Marvel Keys....

But Next, Because They are RAW and look like they are in INSANE conditioning...I know this was posted awhile ago but if the poster is still here...if you dont mind me asking, are the conditioning of all of these in the 9.0 + range?

 

Truly stunning...I love that they are RAW(I dont have a single CGC) but thats whats makes this so fascinating, I cant help but wonder just how high these would grade if sent in to CGC considering how incredible they look

Trying to put my collection in order after years of being lazy. It’s breaking me. And finding doubles I don’t even remember buying.

Wish I lived closer, would gladly volunteer some time to help ya out just to see all the cool covers.

Looks like you have the painful work done of bagging & boarding them all.

Good luck man - slow & steady is the key :)

these look like color copies to me. the values seem wrong, and the contrast is too strong. plus whats with the empty cgc cases?

i suppose they could be real but it appears dubious imho.
