Product code: 1984 Amazing Spider-Man 252, 1st full appearance of symbiote costume. 2024 Near mint.
May 1984 Newsstand edition in spectacular condition, kept in a smoke-free home. I am the sole owner. Shape is excellent. Some VERY small edge wear and very few, slight spine tics. Check close-ups and will add 2024 others on request. Pages are sharp with no signs of wear. I'm NOT an expert on grading but would expect this to hit 9.0. Starting here, Peter Parker went from wisecracking wall-crawler to vengeance-fueled vigilante. The suit—which, of course, revealed itself to be an alien symbiote—fed off Spidey and changed his demeanor exponentially. After Parker rejected it, the symbiote found its way to the perfect host: Eddie Brock, a man who blamed his failed career on poor Peter. Brock and the symbiote became Venom.
