Direct Edition. First appearance of the Black Cat in "Never Let The Black Cat Cross Your Path!" Part 1 of 2. Script by Marv Wolfman. Art by Keith Pollard (breakdowns) and Frank Giacoia (finishes). Cover by Al Milgrom. One of the landmark issues of the Amazing Spider-Man series! The dazzling debut of the Black Cat! The wall-crawler has spent the first 193 issues of his title chasing super-villains! But tonight he's going to kiss one instead! Wow! Does the web-slinger stand a chance against the beauty and charm of Felicia Hardy? Not when the alluring cat has his tongue! And maybe later his heart! A terrific issue! Cameo appearances by Aunt May, Betty Brant, Ned Leeds, Harry Osborn, Flash Thompson, Mysterio (in civilian clothes), and the burglar. (Notes: The Black Cat is the creative highlight of the Wolfman-Pollard run on the Amazing Spider-Man title. Dave Cockrum designed the cat's costume. The letters page includes an alternate cover (for issue 194) by Keith Pollard. It also includes an alternate cover to Spider-Woman 9 by Carmine Infantino. This two-part story was reprinted in the trade paperback: Spider-Man vs. the Black Cat (2005). 36 pages, full color. Cover price $0.40.

MANUFACTURING ERROR YELLOW BAR/STRIPE

The error variant featured here seems to be an early print run variant where a small yellow stripe can be seen at the end of the Marvel Comics Group logo, after the comics code authority logo - this seems to be an error on the magenta printing plate where there is no magenta in this area (magenta + yellow = red). The error only seems to be seen on some of the Direct (comic shop) editions with the issue corrected on later Direct copies.

Unfortunately, there are no variants listed in the CGC census so there is no distinction between the Direct error variant, the Direct corrected variant, or the Newsstand edition.
