More early adventures of Spider-Man from the Marvel Age of Comics, collected in a smaller format that's perfect for new readers!

Kraven the Hunter is out for revenge, an all-new Vulture wants to make his mark, and they both have their sights set on the Amazing Spider-Man! But that’s the just a warm up effort for Stan Lee and John Romita. What else do they have in store? The debut of the Kingpin and the all-time great, “Spider-Man No More!”, a story that redefines resilience. The beating heart of these Marvel classics is the tale of young Peter Parker finding his way in the world. His relationship with Gwen Stacy begins to blossom and he might even find time for a party with his friends. Also featuring an expansive Annual co-starring the Human Torch and a bit of madcap fun from Not Brand Echh.

COLLECTING: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (1963) #47-52 & ANNUAL (1964) #4 and material from NOT BRAND ECHH (1967) #2
Writer/editor Stan Lee (1922-2018) made comic-book history together with Jack Kirby in 1961 with Fantastic Four #1. The monumental popularity of its new style inspired Lee to develop similarly themed characters — including the Hulk and X-Men with Kirby, Spider-Man and Doctor Strange with Steve Ditko, and Daredevil with Bill Everett. After shepherding his creations through dozens of issues — in some cases a hundred or more — Lee allowed other writers to take over, but he maintained steady editorial control. Eventually, he helped expand Marvel into a multimedia empire. In recent years, his frequent cameo appearances in Marvel’s films established Lee as one of the world’s most famous faces.

John Romita was born in 1930 and drew for Atlas Era Marvel Comics across many genres. By the time Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko were defining the look and feel of the Marvel Age of Comics during the 1960s, Romita had made the move to DC Comics, where he was working exclusively behind the boards of the company’s many romance comics. It wasn’t until 1966 that he returned to Marvel Comics and the super-hero genre, drawing Daredevil before taking over from Ditko on what was fast becoming Marvel’s most important book, Amazing Spider-Man. Romita’s slick, clean craftsmanship would be a hallmark of his tenure, and his years of drawing beautiful women in DC’s romance books paid off with iconic renderings of Gwen Stacy, Mary Jane Watson and the other women in Peter Parker’s life.
