The Amazing Spider-Man - Vulture (Marvel 80 years) - Funko Pop! (594) - (Pop In A Box)

The Vulture (Adrian Toomes) is a fictional supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Toomes is a maniacal madman with little to no remorse for human life who wears a suit allowing him to fly, and is a recurring enemy of the superhero Spider-Man as well as one of the founding members of the Sinister Six supervillain team. Other characters have assumed the Vulture alias in comics over the years.

The character has been adapted from the comic in various Spider-Man television series and video games. Michael Keaton portrayed the character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017).

The Amazing Spider-Man is an American comic book series published by Marvel Comics, featuring the fictional superhero Spider-Man as its main protagonist. Being in the mainstream continuity of the franchise, it began publication in 1963 as a monthly periodical and was published continuously, with a brief interruption in 1995, until its relaunch with a new numbering order in 1999. In 2003 the series reverted to the numbering order of the first volume. The title has occasionally been published biweekly, and was published three times a month from 2008 to 2010.

After DC Comics' relaunch of Action Comics and Detective Comics with new No. 1 issues in 2011, it had been the highest-numbered American comic still in circulation until it was cancelled. The title ended its 50-year run as a continuously published comic with the landmark issue #700 in December 2012. It was replaced by The Superior Spider-Man as part of the Marvel NOW! relaunch of Marvel's comic lines.

The title was relaunched in April 2014, starting fresh from issue No. 1, after the "Goblin Nation" story arc published in The Superior Spider-Man and Superior Spider-Man Team-Up. In late 2015, The Amazing Spider-Man was relaunched again with a new volume with issue No. 1 following the 2015 Secret Wars event. The series was relaunched again in 2018.
