I've mentioned this in the 500 Club, but I've been re-reading Web Of the last few weeks. I really enjoy the stories. They are simply street level, fun Spidey stories. One story did have Doc Ock, but...

Don't! 'Nuff Said.

You re-reading Spider-Man 2099 now? I really enjoyed it start to finish. I feel like the consistency went when the original artist (name escapes me) left the title. PAD is an outstanding writer...

I don't have an issue with the color of his skin. And he is an outstanding actor.

Bigger issue is- he isn't exactly who I pictured playing Electro. Same could be said with the casting of Rhino...

I love that cover and really enjoy this story. I'm surprised you'd only give it a B+. It was such a huge moment in the Spidey mythos.

I've said this before, but I also love what they were doing...

I'm really enjoying re-reading Web of SM. I like the street level Spidey stories in the book. Peter David...

This seems like a reach. I've seen odd number of books collected for various reasons. Maybe they are collecting two story arcs instead of one. Or maybe because the book hasn't sold well they are...

So I skimmed through the listing. What about it has people worried...?

Yea I'm really counting on the summer to make up for it.

My big issue is I read a lot of moderns. I'm up around 400 now for the year and will probably make my year goal of 1000. A big part of...

Yea some of the OMD stuff was pure garbage. I've been tempted to pull out some of the better stuff, but I felt like a lot of it was awful. The Black Cat/Spidey stuff just felt off.

And you are...

Trucking along- it'd be lame if I, as the creator of this thread, didn't make it to 500... I'm going to have to...

One of the best, and I love that cover! I feel like that is something that'd look great up on my wall!

It always amazes me how good the later Lee/Ditko stories were. I feel like the first 10 issues when they established all the villains is often regarded as one of the best runs on the character....

Yea I've noticed in reading some old Ock stories that he says Superior often. You can always tell that Slott is a fan first and a writer second.

I love these comparisons!

As someone who has been harsh of Slott's run for sometime, this is no where near the mess that was the Clone Saga. And this is also coming from someone who enjoyed the...

Yea Venom should have no part in the new films. Only thing I'd like to see is an accurate depiction of the black costume on screen. No interest in Venom though.

They make so much Spider-Man apparel it is going to be rough. I'm a teacher in high school and I constantly see kids in cool Spidey Ts that I want to go buy. I can never find them though...

So much goodness in this thread!



I agree. I think Slott packs a lot of meat in his comics. I have complained about his pacing at times, but I feel like I get my moneys worth with his books....

You're forgetting that back then it took more like 30 minutes. And they cost a fraction of the price.

Having managed in a few restaurants back in my day (really not that long ago), I have super high standards for customer service. It always amazes me how rude people are in restaurants. My wife used...

Yea I think Slott is far from burned out.

And if people remember, Spidey was twice a month for a long time in the 90s. This isn't a new thing. I'd like to see an artist come on that can handle it...

It is funny you bring up Daredevil and Waid's run. I feel like Waid's run, while good, is so drastically different then who and what Daredevil has been for a LONG time. Part of what I liked about...

I've given this a lot of thought over the years. If you think about it, Spider-Man has had more shake ups then any other character in the last 20 years. They've tried to replace or de-age the...

I'd say, at the end of the day, Slott's run has been one of the "Funnest" runs one the book. Is it the best? No, but it sure has been a fun trip.

I'd also add, messing with a beloved character can...

Yea the amount of Spider-Man merchandise is just staggering. I don't see nearly as much Iron Man stuff for my son. He is almost 2, and you can go into Old Navy with 20 bucks and walk out with like 5...
