In addition to the Amazing Spider-Man LP, there were records produced for Thor (Journey into Mystery #83), Avengers #4; and Fantastic Four #1, all with their own reprint comic. We bought these sets when they first appeared and can still remember following the story in the comic reprint while the record played and the narrator read the story to us. Just to make sure we didn't lose our place, he would say "Turn page," each time he finished the last panel on a page.
