1st printing. Art and cover by John Romita. Spider-Man is one the most popular characters in the history of comics. This Artist's Edition collects high-resolution scans of the very earliest Amazing Spider-Man daily strips by the two creators most associated with the Web-Slinger, Stan "The Man" Lee and "Jaunty" John Romita! Approximately 300 (!) original daily strips have been scanned, all from 1977 and 1978. The strip debuted on January 3, 1977, and the entire first two months of the strip are included in this volume. Spider-Man's origin is recapped and it's a Who's Who of all your favorite Spidey characters. Each page is meticulously scanned at high resolution and reproduced at the same size they were drawn. The only better way to view this art would have been to be standing over John Romita's drawing board as he was creating them! Hardcover, 176 pages, B&W. Cover price $150.00.
