Question
I have found three comic books, and have held on to them for my son who is only 4! I wanted to find out a little about these as far as if they are worth anything and how hard it would be to start adding to the collection! They are all "the Amazing Spider-Man, collectible series, volume 22 from 10 MAR 1964, volume 6 3 JULY 1963, and volume7 3 July 1963. All by Marvel of course! I know nothing about comic books,but each are about 9 pages long! Thanks for your time and efforts in answering my questions!!

Answer
Hi Angie

What you have are several issues of comics that were given out as free inserts along with Sunday newspapers in 2006 and 2007.  You can see covers of all the comics in this series at this link:

These issues reprint Spider-man stories that originally appeared in the 1960s.  Some issues have new covers and some have the original covers from the 1960s reprinted.  These comics are not that valuable at this time.  You could probably buy them for a dollar or two each.

They are fun items though--enjoy!
