About this deal

I like the stuff between Betty and Peter, but the way Betty acts about Spider-Man seems cliche, even for grief.

I say, "almost," but then upon further consideration you would understand the difference between Ditko's clean, efficient storytelling, dynamic renderings, and extraordinary layouts, and those of the comic artists working (for the most part) in the superhero trenches today. Thanks to Spidey's youth, we get to see him deal with the struggles of the average teenager, and the balancing act between crime-fighting and coming-of-age was executed quite well in this omnibus.The Goblin has Spider-Man go to two different and incredibly far away states… to surprise attack him. My favorite character was Betty Brant because she highlighted what a self-obsessed prick Peter Parker was. Jinak na závěr by bylo dobré dodat, že jsem si to celé užil hlavně, protože jsem odpornej Spider-nerd.

I’m always a fan of Peter being desperate, and this issue ends on one of the key moments in Spider-history.Romero (1) George Freeman (1) George Mair (1) George Pérez (3) George Roussos (2) Geraldo Borges (1) Gerry Conway (2) Gerry Finley-Day (1) Gil Kane (1) Graham Ingels (1) Graham Nolan (1) Grant Morrison (2) Green Lantern (3) Greg Rucka (1) HarperCollins (1) Harvey Kurtzman (1) Hellboy (1) Herb Trimpe (1) Howard Mackie (1) Hulk (2) Ian Churchill (1) Icon (1) Image (3) Inhumans (1) Iron Man (4) Ivan Reis (1) J. I love Romita's work (of course, of course), but Ditko still drew the Spider-Man I think of when I think of Spider-Man. My expectations were high for this graphic novel (omnibus) , and they were 100% met when it was delivered , everything was perfect i. Still this book represents the creme-de-la-creme - and anyone with the slightest interest in heroes in tights owes it to themselves to check this out. Unfortunately, there’s some badly written Betty this issue, and the Ringmaster isn’t the most inspiring villain, but it’s good enough.

Aside from the action that fills the majority of these pages, there was also a fair share of teen drama.

I find that most comics from this period can only be read as artifacts, but these I enjoyed as stories. This issue focuses more on Spider-man’s human problems and unconventional hero status, still no supervillains! As comics still weren't giant businesses, quality control is lacking as character names are misstated and punctuation is missing. During the course of 40 issues Lee and Ditko built the foundation for 45 years of Spidey spectaculars.
