Ben notes: Whenever new-to-CPVs collectors ask me for my opinion on which CPV to collect first, ASM 252 is my answer and here's why. As an "event" comic that received immediate collector interest, it is likely that many collectors may have not been able to load up at their local comic shop with as many copies as they wanted, and thus headed to the newsstands to add additional copies. As a result we see an extraordinarily high number of CGC census copies of both the variant (relative to other CPVs) and the "regular" types for this particular issue. This means a new CPV collector will find it much easier / less frustrating to actually find a suitable CPV copy for their collection making it a great first CPV target.

Marvel, 5/1984 | 1st Appearance of the black costume; Amazing Fantasy 15 cover homage #8 in this year's Top 100. Angelo notes: In 2022: 9.8 CGC sold in July for $3960; 9.6 CGC in June sold $846; in summer three 9.2's CGC sold for $300,$330 & $375; three copies in 9.0 sold for $288,$260 & $266; 7.0 CGC in May for $150; 5.5 CGC in August for $137;4.0 CGC in Feb for $98. In March of 2021 a 9.8 sold for $3816, in May a 9.8 CGC sold for $3360; a SS in 9.8 CGC sold for $4600 (August); a 9.6 CGC for $1200 (May), an 8.5 CGC ow/w for $204.39 (August), in October a 5.0 CGC sold for $102.89.

Lee in August for $740; 9.8 CGC in October for $1800. Along with Marvel Team-up #141, Spectacular #90 and Secret Wars #8 this book is a must have for the Spider-man collector/investor interested in the black suit which eventually becomes Venom. Jayden notes: Example recent ASM #252 CPV sales at CaptCanComics.ca: a CGC 9.2 sold on 6/30/2022 for $500 CAD, a raw VF/NM sold on 6/7/2022 for $375 CAD, a raw VF+ sold on 5/31/2022 for $350 CAD and a raw VF sold on 4/1/2022 for $350 CAD. Ben notes: Whenever new-to-CPVs collectors ask me for my opinion on which CPV to collect first, ASM 252 is my answer and here's why. As an "event" comic that received immediate collector interest, it is likely that many collectors may have not been able to load up at their local comic shop with as many copies as they wanted, and thus headed to the newsstands to add additional copies. As a result we see an extraordinarily high number of CGC census copies of both the variant (relative to other CPVs) and the "regular" types for this particular issue. This means a new CPV collector will find it much easier / less frustrating to actually find a suitable CPV copy for their collection making it a great first CPV target. Bill notes: A CGC 9.8 variant sold for $1,282 in October 2018; back in December 2017 a CGC 9.8 variant sold for $1,000; a VG/FN variant sold for $107.58 in August 2018 Conan notes: Example variant sales at MyComicShop: a raw VG 4.0 on 5/10/2022 for $155 (buy it now), a raw FN- 5.5 on 5/9/2022 for $119 (buy it now), a raw VF 8.0 on 5/5/2022 for $210 (buy it now), a CGC 9.0 on 11/30/2021 for $300 (buy it now), a raw 2.0 on 8/23/2021 for $72, a raw 2.5 on 1/28/2021 for $85, a CGC 7.0 on 7/8/2021 for $135, a raw 2.5 on 12/31/2019 for $35, a raw 6.0 on 6/6/2019 for $48, a raw 5.0 on 6/16/2020 for $61, a raw 6.0 on 6/16/2020 for $63, a CGC 8.5 on 5/7/2019 for $86, a raw 8.0 on 12/30/2019 for $98, a CGC 9.2 on 11/19/2019 for $106, a raw 8.0 on 9/21/2020 for $195, a CGC 9.4 on 11/20/2020 for $280, a CGC 9.4 on 5/13/2019 for $300 Paul notes: Example ASM #252 variant sales at PNJ Comics: Two CGC 9.8 Amazing Spider-Man #252 variants sold for $3,995 on 4/5/2022, a CGC 9.6 variant sold for $846 on 6/29/2022, an NM+ variant sold for $250.00 on 3/7/2018, an NM variant sold for $215 in 2018, and a raw VG/FN variant sold for $80 in 2020.
