Provenance

Where it came from

Marvel Tales Featuring Spider-Man was a long-running anthology series published by Marvel Comics that served primarily as a reprint vehicle. Beginning in 1964, the title allowed newer readers to experience classic Spider-Man stories from The Amazing Spider-Man and other early Marvel publications, often featuring recolored covers and updated production values to introduce seminal arcs to a new generation.

Issue #249, published in July 1991, fits within the established editorial strategy of presenting foundational Spider-Man adventures. By the time this issue was released, the title was deeply entrenched in Marvel's back-catalog strategy, offering fans a digest-style look at earlier creative eras. The design maintained the house style of the period, emphasizing familiar iconography to ensure immediate recognition on newsstands.
