Marvel Comic Books fans have heard of The Sinister Six-the super-villain group that first took on Spider-Man isn The Amazing Spider-Man Annual #1 way back in 1964.
But, have you ever heard of The Sinister Syndicate consisting of Hydro-Man, Speed Demon, Beetle, Boomerang and Rhino?
They made their first appearance in The Amazing Spider-Man #280 continuing into issue #281.
To add to the excitement the Kingpin, Sandman and the Hobgoblin make their appearances. Mary Jane Watson ramps up her modeling career and Jack O’Lantern adds to the mayhem.
What a fun couple of issues and plain good reading. No politics, no Social Justice Warrior garbage or WOKE.
It’s a good old-fashioned comic book story with lots of fisticuffs, fast action with a little soap opera thrown in for good measure. Talk about a big bang for 75 cents each!
Here’s the kicker. Raw mint copies of each can be picked up for about $10 each. And yet, a mint copy of #280 goes for around $100 with #281 topping out at $200.
