Spider-Man Complete Set 12 issues 1990s Turkish Comic Turkey Todd McFarlane #1 to #7

Spider-Man – Complete Set (12 Issues) – Sabah Gazetesi Turkish Edition – 1990s newspaper giveaway

Description:

This listing includes the complete 12-issue run of the Spider-Man series distributed in Turkey by Sabah Gazetesi during the 1990s. A total of 12 issues were released as a newspaper giveaway, meaning they were not sold separately but provided as promotional supplements alongside the daily newspaper. Printed in full color and in Turkish, this series stands out from earlier Turkish Spider-Man publications, though its thin newsprint paper makes high-grade copies difficult to find today.

The series primarily features stories from the Spider-Man (1990) run illustrated by Todd McFarlane, reflecting the darker tone and dynamic artwork that defined the character during that era. A common publishing method widely used in Turkey is also evident here: stories were often split across multiple issues to encourage readers to obtain the next installment, meaning many narratives continue into subsequent issues rather than concluding in a single release. This complete set allows the reader to experience these serialized stories in full without interruption.

Across all 12 issues, the set includes a range of stories from The Amazing Spider-Man Annual #23 (1989), Spider-Man #26 (“These Great Powers”), and the Spider-Man (1990) series from Issue #1 through Issue #7. This includes the full Torment storyline (Spider-Man #1–5) along with additional connected arcs and standalone adventures, offering a comprehensive selection from Todd McFarlane’s influential run.

Collectors will value this complete set for its full-color printing, Todd McFarlane artwork, and unique newspaper giveaway format. As a complete lot, it is significantly harder to find than individual issues, especially considering the fragile paper quality. The set represents a distinctive piece of Turkish comic publishing history and is highly desirable for both Spider-Man fans and collectors of international Marvel editions.
