It's a reprint of Marvel Spotlight 5

I believe the artist was late for whatever reason on the book so they just ran with the reprint even though the cover was meant for another story.

Should’ve checked GCD. :frown:

Anyone have some insights on the rarity of Amazing Spider-man 101 in higher grades VF+? I've collected for 30+ years and I know the standards of rarity have been changed a lot. I remember reading in Overstreet about 15 years ago that Spider-man 50 and lower were relatively hard to find in NM and therefore a good investment. Luckily I followed that advice and found some beauties but I largely ignored early spidey bronze opting for Batman instead. 

I just looked at the census 119 in NM with 112 higher. 3661 total submissions. To me that seems low. Any advice would be great

I don't think it is rare, per se, but the book has ballooned in value so much that people are willing to submit lesser condition copies. As the value of a book goes up, the average grade of a graded copy falls.

We're such a pedantic hobby...
