Spider-Man #1, Marvel Comics, August 1990. Silver Edition, direct market ($1.75 cover price, Spider-Man logo box in place of the UPC). Todd McFarlane\'s first issue as writer and artist — \"Torment\" Part One of Five, featuring the Lizard.To be clear about what this is: it is NOT the Platinum, the Gold second print, or the no-price polybagged silver. This is the standard $1.75 silver direct edition.Condition — raw, ungraded. My conservative estimate is VF/NM (8.5–9.0). Honest notes: • Cover gloss is strong, silver is bright
• Light handling scuffs in the silver ink, visible at an angle — normal for this cover, it marks easily
• Minor wear at the bottom-left corner
• Lies flat, no spine roll, no dog-ears, no color-breaking creases
• Kept out of direct light; no water damage, no tears, no writing, no stampsPhotos are of the actual book, shot flat and at an angle so you can judge the silver yourself. Grade your own from the pictures — I\'d rather under-promise.Stored bagged and boarded in a smoke-free home. Ships USPS Media Mail in a rigid mailer with cardboard protection.
