Wow! This book has nice eye-appeal and deep rich color on this all-time-classic Spidey vs Mad Thinker in Android, hard-to-get in high-grade black cover! With an upper-outer corner bend and very slight wear at the ends of the spine on the back cover. With cream/slight heavy-cream tint pages and white inner covers along with overall light wear appropriate to grade.
