Comics : Marvel Tales : #213-#227-b

Note: Comics shown are for database purposes only. None of these comics are for sale. Valuations shown are indicative Near Mint Values. Dates shown are cover dates.

A long-running series of reprints in comic form, starting in the 60s and running through to the 90s. Some of the early issues of this series are valuable in their own right. Early issues featured reprints from non-Spidey stories too, but the series quickly became essentially a Spidey reprint comic.

The issues reprinted jumped around somewhat, featuring classic issues, Team-Up stories, and then returning to repeat classic stories. Later issues also featured an original Spider-Ham backup story.
