SPIDERMAN HUMAN TORCH (2005) 1-5
March-July 2005
Story & Art: Dan Slott & Ty Templeton

COMPLETE 5-ISSUE MINI-SERIES!

' 'Spider-Man and the Human Torch have a long history together, dating back to their earliest days as teenaged wallcrawler and teenaged hothead, respectively. This title fondly recalls that history and that era, written and drawn in a throwback style that should particularly appeal to the readers of the earliest adventures by Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, and Jack Kirby. Young Johnny Storm resents the attention that Spider-Man gets from the media and aims to do something about it by enlisting Peter Parker. Parker envies that the Torch can be a hero without wearing a mask, while trying to balance his own life of bills and the affections of young Betty Brant.

New readers should enjoy the innocent humor and sparring between the characters; old readers might think they’ve traveled into the past. The series is lovingly crafted by Dan Slott and Ty Templeton.' - ComicBase Atlas Archive Edition

Read this legend for an understanding for how our grading system works:

M = Mint
a
perfect, unread comic. White pages, sharp corners, perfectly aligned
cover, tight staples, sharp square corners, no creases, marks, fading of
any kind - no flaw whatsoever. We have never actually graded a book as
Mint. to Quote Phil Seuling: "Mint is a flavor of chewing gum."

Nm = Near Mint
This
is what most comics look like when purchased new, presuming no
harassment on the racks. Tight staples, glossy cover, sharp corners, no
marks, white pages. Any flaws are HINTS of a flaw. Maybe look very
closely and you the perfectionist will see a miniscule mis-alignment of
the cover with the pages, or the hint of the rounding of a corner. Run
your fingers down the spine and you may feel a crease which isn't
visible to the eye. Those are the kind of things which mean that nearly
all "as new" comics are graded as Near Mint rather than Mint. You will
notice that in our 1000s of listings, we don't use this grade either.
VF-NM is usually our top grade.

VF = Very Fine
Excellent
condition. Sharp, bright and clean. May have minor spine wear or a
small corner crease, or slight surface wear. Often, at first glance a
Very Fine comic will appear Near Mint, although closer inspection will
reveal trace ( but distinct) imperfections. This is typically the best
grade seen for Silver Age comics.

F = Fine
a
nice book, still attractive to look at. An optimistic first glance
might reasonably hope for a VF or even a VF-NM. Staples still firm,
there is at least some gloss, good corners, but closer look reveals yet
more imperfections.

Vg = Very Good
a
solid book. Immediately visible but not dramatic flaws - conversely no
dramatic virtues either. Just clean somewhat worn and solid. Maybe some
creases but no significant tears. Staples still solid. Book still solid,
but clearly worn.

G = Good
As
VG, but with flaws more pronounced. Creases are a little bigger, maybe a
larger tear, staples still attached, but may have stress tears around
them. There may be small chips out of the cover. The wear is everywhere
but the book is still sound.

FR = Fair
A
Fair comic is well worn with large flaws, but the book and cover are
still there, possibly a piece or two missing from the cover, a staple
may be loose. OK for a reader, a cheap placeholder for a collector.

Pr = Poor
Any
graded book should be complete. A book in POOR has its cover and all
its pages. Things may be loose or waiting to get lost, there may be a
piece missing here or there, but the book is there. Still readable. We
do not give incomplete books a grade.

We
tend to call attention to major flaws that may not be visible in a
Scan: loose staples, covers, spine splits, tape, extra staplesNote
that when a grade appears as (VG-F) or something similar, it means the
book was somewhere in-between the two selected grades. And when a
listing appears as (G+), it means that the book was slightly better than
the grade described, or slightly less in the case of (G-).
