hi lazy dave,

1) #15 - First Appearance and Origin of Spider-Man Aug 1962
Amazing Spider-Man : #1 Mar 1963 :

these are the first two, they come out evey month and thay are up to #500

3) depends how rich you are :-) - your going to be looking at about �1000-2000 for a avarage comic your lookin more like 10,000 for a mint copy of the first two spiderman

most of the main heros x-men,hulk and spiderman came out in the early 60s and your looking at �1000s- you could can pick reprints up pretty cheap say �2-�5 or spiderman do a book with reprints the first 20 issues of amazing for about �12 called essential spiderman vol 1

I'm afraid I'lll have to make a slight correction to godfather's answer.

Spider-Man made his first appearence in Amazing Fantasy #15 in 1962.

He later got his own series.

As for your other questions.....

Batman's first appearence was in Detective Comics #27 in May, 1939.
That will cost you a little over $200,000. Seriously.

X-Men #1 and Hulk #1 will cost you around $15,000. If not more.

Glad I could help. big grin

If you wanted to read the original comics, buy the Essential graphic novels. They have them for pretty much every popular comic book. They're black and white, but pretty good.
