Why It Matters

This issue introduces Black Widow's familiar black costume, giving it a particular place in collections focused on the character's visual history. The photographed CGC label records Black Widow dons a new costume, alongside her appearance in the issue.

John Romita's cover places Spider-Man against an oversized Black Widow silhouette, with the Beware the Black Widow! caption below. It is a distinctive crossover cover from Stan Lee's Spider-Man run, with interior art by John Romita and Jim Mooney.

The one-shilling price is printed in the cover's price box, matching the UK variant designation on the CGC label. This combination of the Black Widow costume story, Romita artwork and UK cover presentation gives collectors several specific reasons to consider this copy.

CGC's numerical grade describes the comic; the plastic holder may have separate cosmetic marks. Please inspect both photographs for the comic's presentation and visible holder condition, allowing for reflections and photographic glare. Further close-up photographs can be requested before purchase.

The grade, off-white page designation, UK variant identification, certification number and appearance notes above match the photographed CGC label.
