A near-perfect copy of Amazing Fantasy No. 15 sold for $3.6 million in 2021 at auction in Texas.

Steve Dobrzynski, owner of Collector's Edge Comics, holds an Amazing Fantasy #15 Marvel comic which is the first appearance of the Amazing Spider-Man on Wednesday, Oct. 18, 2023 in Milwaukee, Wis. MILWAUKEE — A Milwaukee comic book shop is looking to sell a rare copy of the first appearance of Spider-Man.

The shop’s owner, Steve Dobrzynski, first posted photos of the book on social media last Tuesday. He told the Journal Sentinel a couple found the book among a dead relative’s possessions and brought it to him for help selling it. He did not name the couple. Dobrzynski sent it to the Certified Guaranty Company, a Florida-based comics and collectibles grading service. The service rated the book at 3.0 on a scale of 0.5 to 10, with 0.5 being very bad condition and 10 being perfect condition. Dobrzynski said the book could fetch as much as $35,000.

Dobrzynski contacted some regular customers to give them a shot at buying the book before making it public, but he hasn’t gotten a yes or no from any of them yet.
