Spider-Man (1990) #1 – Silver Edition (Marvel Comics)
Spider-Man (1990) #1 – Silver Edition (August 1990), written, penciled, and covered by Todd McFarlane with inks by Todd McFarlane and Rick Parker (lettering), is the iconic debut of Marvel’s Spider-Man series, launching the “Torment: Part 1” storyline. This Silver Edition features a striking black cover with metallic silver webbing, priced at $1.75 (unbagged), showcasing McFarlane’s revolutionary art. In this classic tale, Spider-Man confronts a magically revived Lizard, transformed into a perfect killing machine, as mysterious drums drive him to slaughter in New York City. As bodies pile up, Spidey investigates the sinister force behind the chaos. McFarlane’s dynamic storytelling and groundbreaking visuals redefined Spider-Man for the ‘90s, making this one of the best-selling comics of all time.
Highlights
  • Launch of McFarlane’s Spider-Man series with “Torment: Part 1.”
  • Spider-Man vs. a magically enhanced, murderous Lizard.
  • Todd McFarlane’s superstar writing, art, and cover.
  • Silver Edition’s metallic webbing and iconic black cover.
  • Cultural milestone in ‘90s comics history.
Value & Trends
  • Current: Raw NM copies of the Silver Edition sell for $10–$20 on eBay/MyComicShop, with VF copies at $5–$15 and CGC 9.8 copies fetching $50–$100. CGC 9.9 or 10.0 copies can reach $200–$500 due to rarity. Newsstand or polybagged editions (Gold, Platinum) may command premiums, with Silver being the most common variant.
  • Trends: McFarlane’s enduring legacy, Spider-Man 4 (2026) hype, and the Lizard’s potential MCU return (Spider-Man: No Way Home legacy) could drive 10–15% price hikes in 6–12 months. NM Silver Editions may hit $20–$40 in 2–3 years if “Torment” or McFarlane’s art gains focus. Comic-Con 2025 news or Spider-Man reprints could spike demand.
  • Market: Spider-Man #1’s status as a ‘90s classic, McFarlane’s art, and variant appeal drive strong collector interest, especially for high-grade or slabbed copies.
Key Characters
  • Spider-Man (Peter Parker): Hero investigating a killing spree.
  • Lizard (Curt Connors): Magically revived, unstoppable predator.
