Answer
Dear Rick,

That depends whether the number in brackets indicates the number of comics you found of each or the number of the actual comic.

If you have The Amazing Spiderman number 2, for example, you may be sitting on a small goldmine. If on the other hand you simply have two copies of Amazing Spiderman, the interest will be considerably less.

If you'd like to send me more details, I can give you a bit more advice: what is the actual issue number of each comic?
