This story was one of the first comics I bought ... I picked up a early-1970s Marvel Tales reprint at a used bookstore in Panorama City, Calif. in '85 or '86 ... for a quarter.
I love this comic -- the Kingpin's characterization, the college protests, everything.
Though are these scans from a collection? Because those panels look re-colored from what I recall ...
Good eye, PJ: this is from the old trade paperback Marvel's Greatest Superhero Battles, and the coloring is a little more bright and brilliant than the originals (and I popped it up a little in P-shop, too!)
