Picture Spider-Man, moping in his black costume (fresh off Secret Wars drama), when he spots Ron, a low-rent thief looting a boutique. Ron’s no Doc Ock—he’s just a dude with a fake gun and a mannequin hostage, but he’s slippery, tricking Spidey and bolting to the subway. Spidey slaps a spider-tracer on him, but the cops (thinking he’s a fake in that black suit) slow him down, letting Ron slip away. Next day, Peter’s back in red-and-blues, tracking the tracer with his handy-dandy tracer-tracer gizmo, only to realize Ron’s hiding… in Scarsdale?! Cue Spidey hitching a train to suburbia, where his web-slinging’s useless—no tall buildings, just trees that snap and dogs that bark. From dodging Neighborhood Watch narcs to bumming rides with chatty garbage men, Spidey’s a fish out of water, stumbling into a car chase pile-up with Ron, a cabbie, and half the town. Can he nab this nobody crook without becoming the local menace? It’s pure hilarity, with David’s witty script and McLeod’s cartoony art turning Spidey’s bad day into comedy gold.
This issue’s a masterclass in 1980s Marvel filler—self-contained, silly, and secretly deep, showing Spidey’s grit against a regular schmoe. Cameos from Human Torch and Matt Murdock add spice, but it’s the suburban chaos that steals the show, making you cackle at Peter’s Parker luck gone haywire.
Key Character Appearances
-
Spider-Man (Peter Parker): Your friendly neighborhood klutz, flopping in the ‘burbs with quips and desperation.
-
The Commuter (Ron): A one-off crook so bland he’s brilliant, dodging Spidey with luck and a suburban lair. First and only appearance!
-
Human Torch (Johnny Storm): Pops in to bug Spidey and ogle sunbathers—classic Johnny.
-
Matt Murdock: A blink-and-miss lawyer cameo, tying to Spidey’s legal woes.
-
Mona, Shana, and Scarsdale locals: Ron’s wife, kid, and nosy neighbors, making Spidey’s day a circus.
-
No Aunt May or MJ—it’s all Spidey vs. the cul-de-sac crew.
Current Value – What’s It Worth Today?
As of April 2025, The Amazing Spider-Man #267 is a cult favorite with mid-tier appeal, boosted by its Homecoming nod and Peter David’s cred. Raw copies in Very Fine (VF) condition (clean, light wear) sell for $15–$25, while Near Mint (NM) copies fetch $30–$50. Graded slabs? A CGC 9.8 (crisper than a suburban lawn) runs $150–$250, with 9.6s at $80–$120. Newsstand editions (check that barcode) might grab a 5–10% premium for rarity. Rough copies in Good to Fine shape go for $6–$12, depending on how many “dog bites” they’ve got. Its comedy gold status keeps it pricier than fillers, but it’s no key debut.
Expected Value – Will This Comic Commute to Cash?
Let’s talk trends, because ASM #267 has some sneaky spark! The Commuter’s a nobody, but the issue’s rep as “funniest Spidey story” (thanks, Peter David) and Homecoming tie give it legs—fans love its evergreen vibe. Peter David’s early Marvel work is catnip for collectors (Hulk stans, holler), and Bob McLeod’s art has quiet love for its expressive charm. The black costume nod ties to Secret Wars hype, and Human Torch/Murdock cameos add flavor. No major keys (Ron’s a one-and-done) cap big spikes, but its cult status and accessibility keep it humming.
The 2025 comic market’s steady, with Bronze Age Spidey reliable. If Homecoming’s suburban scene gets more buzz (say, a Spider-Man 4 sequel nod or David retrospective at SDCC 2025), raw VF copies could hit $20–$35 and NM $40–$65 in 12–18 months. Graded 9.8s might climb to $300–$400 with a comedy-comic wave. More likely, expect 5–15% growth through 2027—solid like Spidey’s webs, not a jackpot. Long term, Spidey’s king, and this issue’s unique humor makes it a keeper, especially if slapstick trends at cons like C2E2. Bonus: Spider-Verse could lean into Spidey’s everyman side, boosting quirky tales like this.
