I believe this comic to be in Very Fine/Near Mint condition, or better.  There is very light blunting on the spine corners, as well as a couple spine stress creases/tics that barely break the ink.  The back cover shows a small production crease/wrinkle (maybe) that very lightly breaks the ink, between the tops of the letters ‘G’ and ‘A’.  The upper left corner of the back cover also shows a mild indentation and finger bend near the corner that can be pressed out.

I believe this comic to be in Very Fine condition, or better.  This comic shows very light wear along the spine (thicker paper cover) and no tears at the staples. There is light blunting of the spine corners (especially the bottom corner), as well as a couple of sizeable spine stress creases/ticks that very lightly break the ink.  The front cover shows a mild bend on one of the spider legs that doesn’t appear to break the ink.  I believe it can be pressed out.  The lower spine shows a spot of paper loss, just above the lightly impacted spine corner.

Direct edition copy of The Spectacular Spider-Man #229.  This copy has the acetate outer cover, and it features Spider-Man quitting.

I believe this comic to be in Very Fine condition, or better.  There is very light blunting of the spine corners, as well as a handful of spine stress creases/ticks that may or may not break the ink (it’s difficult to tell against the light yellow).  The back cover shows some light waviness/wrinkling near the spine.  Neither of the previous issues impact the acetate cover, although I don’t know if the inside cover can be pressed without impacting the acetate cover.  The bottom spine corner shows a mild bend through the about half the comic that doesn’t appear to break the ink.  Again, the acetate cover isn’t impacted by this.  The acetate cover may have some light cosmetic scratches on it, but if so they are difficult to see.  If the comic can be pressed without impacting the acetate cover, it will clean up quit nicely.

Spectacular Spider-Man #231, alternate Sal Buscema variant, cover B.  This comic features the return of Kaine, and is 1 of 4 limited variant special covers Camelot Music released polybagged with Saturday Morning Cartoons Sampler Cassette. Also released were Amazing Spider-Man #408, Sensational Spider-Man #1, and Spider-Man #65. The four covers connect to depict a giant spider symbol in the background.  At the time of purchase, I wasn’t collecting a lot of Spider-Man and I didn’t know about the connecting covers…I don’t have the other issues unfortunately.  The price was printed on the poly-bag while the UPC symbol was printed on the comic cover.  Through a bit of research, I ‘believe’ there may have been only 1000 copies of each of the above issues…I haven’t been able to verify that.  I do know that this comic variant is very hard to find, unless you’re willing to pay through the nose for it.

This variant was originally shipped poly-bagged. The package included a music cassette featuring The Ramones performing the 1967 animated Spider-Man series theme song as well as other selected songs from "Saturday Morning: Cartoon's Greatest Hits" CD.  Unfortunately, this copy does NOT come with the bag or cassette.  I did have a polybagged copy of this one, but I sold it a few years ago on eBay.  Dang it!!!

I believe this comic to be in Very Fine condition, or better.  There is imperceptible blunting on the spine corners, as well as a number of small spine stress creases/ticks…with a few on the back cover that very lightly break the ink.  The entire bottom right page corner of the book shows a small bend…the crease doesn’t appear to break the ink on the front cover, but the back cover barely shows ink-breakage at the bend.  This comic will benefit from a pressing.
