I love Foreign editions of American Comics– in this case I wasn’t missing out on this Australian Version of Amazing Spider-Man #3 featuring the first appearance of Doc Ock.
Not only is it my favorite cover in the Steve Ditko run on the series but I loved how this one was colored so much more vibrantly than the original was. This was up for sale in a Comic Link auction and I set my feet and decided nobody was beating me on this one– and I got it for far less than I was willing to pay.
Best of all– the Comic Link Auctions ship superfast– unlike Heritage Auctions which charges double the shipping fees and a ridiculous buyers premium CLINK ships usually the same day via Fed Ex and I get the book MAYBE 2-3 days later (and sometimes the very next day). Compare that to Heritage where I’ve waited a month to 45 days to get an auction win.
CLINK all the way.
It's Andy Fish!
