A superb Near Mint/Mint 9.8 copy of an early Stan Lee and Steve Ditko Spider-Man issue, introducing the Big Man and the Enforcers.
The Amazing Spider-Man #10 is dated March 1964. The issue introduces the Big Man, Frederick Foswell, and his gang the Enforcers, Montana, Ox and Fancy Dan. The cover is by Ditko and Jack Kirby.
In the story, titled “The Enforcers!”, the Big Man sets out to take control of the city’s criminal gangs, and J. Jonah Jameson suspects that Spider-Man is secretly behind it. At the end the Big Man is revealed to be Foswell, a reporter at Jameson’s own Daily Bugle, who had padded his clothes to appear larger. The issue also sees Peter Parker give blood to Aunt May while she is in hospital, despite his worry about his radioactive blood.
Ditko’s early Spider-Man issues are rarely found in this condition.
Eleven examples have achieved Near Mint/Mint 9.8 at CGC, and none have been graded higher.
