Fantastic Four 22 / October 8, 1963
Recently repurchased from The Deep out of Huntsville, Alabama. Unlike my previous copy, this is a superior copy that I can read.

Also, the first appearance of the Moloids, who act as minions to Moleman.

New Year’s resolution: We stop saying history will judge them. We judge them now. With judges.
The last issue I needed to finish of Web of Spider-Man (1985) arrived with the last Journey into Mystery, the first Thor, five issues of Captain America, a replacement for my Fantastic Four 22, and a bunch of Web of Spider-Man needed to replace some damaged issues. But I still am waiting on the bucket list comic.
Last post of the day. Have a good night/day

Amazing Spider-Man 265 - March 5, 1985
Purchased today from Ghost Cactus Comics out of Sun City, Arizona. Now I only need 188 issues of mostly silver and bronze age to finish the series.
First appearance of Silver Sable and her mercenary group Wild Pack. Also, in this issue, the one thief that Spider-Man is way too nice to Black Fox.
Nomad 12 - 15 / February 2 - May 4, 1993
4-part story Hidden in View.
I got these issues when they first came out... but I never read them. The series did not appeal to me at the time (I was young). But the comic store I worked at kept giving me the issues.
Reading it now I see a lot of relevance to that hate directed towards the #lgbtq community at the time and the rise of right-wing radio.
More proof that politics can be found in comics.
