⚠ AI-Estimated / Approximate Condition Profile

Cover shows strong gloss and sharp corners with no visible creasing or spine stress; the Spider-Man corner box logo (direct edition indicator) is crisp and fully intact. Slight bindery/printing waviness near the top of the buildings appears inherent to the print rather than damage. No color breaks, tears, or stains are visible, though the book is in a protective sleeve which limits full assessment; interior pages and back cover were not examined.

// Archive commentary

Marvel Team-Up #128 (April 1983) is a late-run entry in Marvel's long-running Spider-Man team-up anthology title, pairing the wall-crawler with Cloak and Dagger during the period when the street-level duo were building toward their own four-issue limited series later that year. The issue reflects Marvel's early-1980s house style, with Spider-Man serving as the connective thread across a rotating cast of guest heroes, and it holds interest primarily as an early cross-title appearance for Cloak and Dagger rather than as a foundational first appearance.

The market profile is that of a common, high-survival Bronze Age direct-edition comic: certified population is substantial with many copies clustered at 9.8, and fair market value across the top of the grade scale is modest and tightly banded, indicating steady but unspectacular collector interest. Demand is driven less by rarity and more by ancillary interest in Cloak and Dagger's early appearances and general Spider-Man team-up completism, with pricing showing little differentiation between 9.0 and 9.6.

This book trades as a bulk-bin to mid-tier collectible: raw low- and mid-grade copies are inexpensive and readily available, appealing mainly to run-builders and Spider-Man team-up completists, while CGC 9.8 copies command a modest premium reflecting the top of a well-populated census rather than true scarcity. It is best positioned in dealer inventory as an affordable Bronze Age piece with incidental character interest rather than a marquee key.
