In honor of 60 years of Spider-Man, the web-slinger's second solo series gets the Omnibus treatment! SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN not only increased the opportunities for Spidey action, it provided a platform to expand upon and explore the world of Peter Parker and his incomparable cast: J. Jonah Jameson, Mary Jane Watson, Flash Thompson and the gang! Of course, there was no shortage of villains - including the Vulture, the Lizard and Doc Ock! SPECTACULAR was also home to Frank Miller's first Daredevil artwork - part of a sprawling saga featuring Carrion, the mysterious rotting horror with hidden ties to Peter Parker's past and a violent desire to punish him for the death of Gwen Stacy! Painstakingly restored, this is an Omnibus for the ages! Collecting SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN (1976) #1-42 and ANNUAL #1, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN ANNUAL (1964) #13 and FANTASTIC FOUR (1961) #218.

yes it's the b team, but this stuff has the glitz and glam to make me say hot damn. we get razorback, the cb-culture superhero, hypno hustler, the disco-themed villain, carrion, power man and iron fist, moon knight, and frank miller's first pencils of daredevil over two issues. top notch seventies marvel mayhem, goofy as all hell and hugely entertaining. flat sewn binding, the paper allowing some bleed through. great volume, more please.

Great 70s / 80s style Spider-Man in a large convenient tome

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 11, 2022

Verified Purchase

Great product. The main action in 70s and 80s Spider-Man was in Amazing, but these are great companion stories and a must read for real Spider Fans. A number of fun “hidden gem” stories from a formative period in the development of the characters and featuring some oddball villains . Some pretty standard (but classic-ish) art from John Buscema a Jim Mooney. At least one great Byrne cover and an entire annual drawn by Byrne and inked by Terrry Austin in their prime. There is also one issue with cover and art by the eye popping Mike Zeck. Truly a must have for a basic spice comic collection. Get it before the price goes through the roof in a few years like the Amazing omnis.

Slight Creases

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 22, 2023

Verified Purchase

The overall omnibus/comic is worth five stars and beyond, includes Spectacular Spider-Man 1-42, the only minor problem is the creases at the edge of the book, but it overall does not take away from my enjoyment of having this classic series in my collection. Highly recommended for Al Marvel Fans, young and elder.

A good era

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 10, 2023

Verified Purchase

A good era for Spider-Man, both in his own main book and in this companion series, begun in 1976, really got into gear in late 1977/early 1978 in both titles. In the case of PETER PARKER, THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN (PPTSSM), the writing-editorial team promised a focus on Peter Parker and a close continuity (in particular, crossing over of plotlines) with the lead book, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. In the event, neither of these happened much in the first two to three years of PPTSSM.

With regard to Peter Parker, the creative team did bring in more of his graduate studies into this book from around 1979. Nevertheless, the emphasis on Peter Parker did fall by the wayside to a large degree, and his name would be dropped from the comic book's title eventually (and is not in the title of this collection).

With regard to continuity, there was not really regular, hardline crossing-over between the various Spider-Man books until 1983 (and it became more intensive after about 1986). Some of the attempts to insert continuity into PPTSSM earlier are throwaway references. And they introduce some problems, including: PPTSSM Annual #1 is written as though it occurs during the period in which Peter believed his Aunt was dead, but the storyline spanning that period in ASM did not really allow for a gap in which to place this story. So we have to assume that Parker, when referring in PPTSSM Annual #1 to the funeral bills that he is paying, is mentioning them in order to make a colleague (who has suggested to Parker that he should not be having financial problems) feel awkward.

Bill Mantlo, though sometimes a heavy-handed writer, produces a major improvement in the PPTSSM storylines and readability from issue #12 onward, and especially from issue #25 onward when a couple of epics begin.

Notably, even though Gerry Conway had gone (back) to DC after writing the early PPTSSM issues, PPTSSM doesn't treat his work as anathema, as Mantlo revives multiple Conway-related villains (who were introduced in Conway's long ASM stint) in his own run. Even before the Mantlo era, PPTSSM also stresses the Conway notion that Peter Parker actually failed a number of courses during his college years (making it more reasonable to accept the fact that those years could take the period from 1966 to 1978 to be told in the comics).

Incidentally, I noted that in an early PPTSSM issue Conway seems to go out of his way to indicate that what some regarded as an over-the-top Conway development in his ASM run (the Doctor Octopus/Aunt May romance) was actually an idea launched in Stan Lee's ASM run. As if to confirm this, in the later 1970s Lee himself brought the idea back, in the ASM newspaper strip, well after the comics had stopped drawing upon it.

In a non-Mantlo scripted story, issue #16, the final two pages of story are worth looking at separately, without reading the narration and word balloons. It's pretty clear that a tougher ending (implied by the art as published) was rewritten into a softer ending at the ballooning stage.

Jim Mooney makes a good Spider-Man artist in the later issues. Sometimes it's eerie to see iconic '60s DC-type faces in a late-1970s Spider-Man book, but his art is very professional in look, especially in glossy color.
