From the top of the comic book food chain comes this feast of (110) different Amazing Spider-Man comics. Dating from 1966-1995 these prime target issues are all from the original Amazing Spider-Man Volume 1 run. While DC’s Superman and Batman characters have long held sway over the comic book market, once Spider-Man hit the scene in 1962, the web-headed wonder has certainly given those venerable super-heroes a run for their money.
