Roger Stern is one of my favorite comic book writers。 He shows a great skill here in capturing Peter Parker's/Spider-man's voice as well as the voices of the supporting characters around him。 This omnibus was a nostalgic joy for me to read。 It brought me back to the fun I had reading these stories originally when I was in high school in the late 70's and early 80's。 It takes Stern a few issues to get his story-telling rhythm going, but once he does, around the start of his run on the Amazing tit Roger Stern is one of my favorite comic book writers。 He shows a great skill here in capturing Peter Parker's/Spider-man's voice as well as the voices of the supporting characters around him。 This omnibus was a nostalgic joy for me to read。 It brought me back to the fun I had reading these stories originally when I was in high school in the late 70's and early 80's。 It takes Stern a few issues to get his story-telling rhythm going, but once he does, around the start of his run on the Amazing title, this book simply soars highly into the fun zone。 Great read for Spider-man fans and fans of good comic book story-telling over all。 。。。more

Oh boy did this take me a while。Read in chunks over the course of under a year, Roger Stern’s Spider-Man is sort of a mixed bag。 At least for the Spectacular stuff。 Those are pretty hit or miss based off the artist working on the issue, but that’s in line with the way marvel comics were made then。 The general idea or plot of the issue could be pretty creative or interesting but the artist could just end up not doing anything remotely good with it。 Back then, the artist had way more on their shou Oh boy did this take me a while。Read in chunks over the course of under a year, Roger Stern’s Spider-Man is sort of a mixed bag。 At least for the Spectacular stuff。 Those are pretty hit or miss based off the artist working on the issue, but that’s in line with the way marvel comics were made then。 The general idea or plot of the issue could be pretty creative or interesting but the artist could just end up not doing anything remotely good with it。 Back then, the artist had way more on their shoulders than they do now so reading these poorly laid out issues was a bit of a bummer。 But when these issues were cooking, they were cooking。 Stern showed his prowess on a few home run issues/arcs on Spectacular, so Marvel gave him the main book。 What we got was glorious。 Roger Stern’s Amazing Spider-Man run has Stern’s lager turning plots paired with an artist that just gets it, John Romita Jr and several others that just end up delivering far superior work。 There are fun stories featuring the Juggernaut, some one off character driven stories and new villains like the Hobgoblin introduced。 All this done with a fantastic art team。 Sometimes, Romita’s inker would be a little crappy but the ideas for the page are still there。 It’s still interesting, it’s still kinetic when an inker unfamiliar with JRJR hops on。 There are some Klaus Janson inks on a few issues which are spot on。 He’s one of the most defined and unique inkers in the business and he shows that with this book。 Klaus knows how to make the page pop。Overall, this is a fantastic Spider-Man book。 Once it hits Amazing Spider-Man it’s near perfect。9/10 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 It's always fun reading great spiderman stories。 Hobgoblin is such an underrated villain, and I dug his concept; a man who stumbles upon a former villain's base and improves upon the old villain's powers and weaknesses。 It made him more threatening and he got the upper hand so many times because he was cautious。 The whole mystery behind his identity was pretty intense as well。 Skipped the issues that focused on side villains, didn't find most of them interesting。 Besides Stilt-Man of course。 It's always fun reading great spiderman stories。 Hobgoblin is such an underrated villain, and I dug his concept; a man who stumbles upon a former villain's base and improves upon the old villain's powers and weaknesses。 It made him more threatening and he got the upper hand so many times because he was cautious。 The whole mystery behind his identity was pretty intense as well。 Skipped the issues that focused on side villains, didn't find most of them interesting。 Besides Stilt-Man of course。 。。。more

A very slow and mediocre start with all types of B villains, its get much better the second half and has even some fantastic moments, but it takes alot of pages to get to the good stuff。

Another excellent run by Roger Stern。 Though nowhere near as great as his run on Avengers。 We also have a sizable amount of John Romita, Jr。's early Spider-man work。 It's fun to see him go from House-style to his personal signature style which is nearly emerging in the final chapters。 All of this was new to me so it was great fun to read。 Must reading for all Spidey fans and easily worth the price of the Omnibus。 Another excellent run by Roger Stern。 Though nowhere near as great as his run on Avengers。 We also have a sizable amount of John Romita, Jr。's early Spider-man work。 It's fun to see him go from House-style to his personal signature style which is nearly emerging in the final chapters。 All of this was new to me so it was great fun to read。 Must reading for all Spidey fans and easily worth the price of the Omnibus。 。。。more

An amazing 58 issue run on the Friendly Neighbourhood webhead spanning Spectacular Spiderman (which focuses more on Peter's private life and his interaction with a delightful support cast) and the one and only Amazing main title where the classic tales are following each other, including a classic run on the Vulture, the first few steps of a terrifying Hobgoblin and, last but not least, the jewel that is The Boy That Collected Spiderman which is without a doubt one of the few very best stories e An amazing 58 issue run on the Friendly Neighbourhood webhead spanning Spectacular Spiderman (which focuses more on Peter's private life and his interaction with a delightful support cast) and the one and only Amazing main title where the classic tales are following each other, including a classic run on the Vulture, the first few steps of a terrifying Hobgoblin and, last but not least, the jewel that is The Boy That Collected Spiderman which is without a doubt one of the few very best stories ever told about our hero。。。 A definite read for all fans and for the nostalgic of the 1980's way of storytelling! 。。。more

Oh boy, I almost gave up on this book before the halfway mark。 The Spectacular issues in the beginning are quite a slog to get through。 Overly silly and simplistic villains and not much going on in Parker's personal life。 But, if you stick with it, and you'll be treated to some of the very best, top-notch Spider-Man comics ever, in the Amazing issues with JRJR。 Far better villains, more excitement, more drama。 Stern gets into his groove and writes some absolute classics。 Oh boy, I almost gave up on this book before the halfway mark。 The Spectacular issues in the beginning are quite a slog to get through。 Overly silly and simplistic villains and not much going on in Parker's personal life。 But, if you stick with it, and you'll be treated to some of the very best, top-notch Spider-Man comics ever, in the Amazing issues with JRJR。 Far better villains, more excitement, more drama。 Stern gets into his groove and writes some absolute classics。 。。。more
