Buried under a mountain of machinery with the clock ticking and Aunt May's life on the line, Stan and Steve put Spider-Man through the most wrenching experience of his career and define a hero in the process. They'll also introduce you to Gwen Stacy for the very first time; show you around the campus at E.S.U.; and run the gamut from Kraven the Hunter to "Just a Guy Named Joe" before a new talent joins the Spider-Man family. The Jazzy One, John Romita, makes his Spider-Man debut! And oh, what a debut it is! His identity uncovered by the Green Goblin, Spidey finds himself fighting for his life only to discover the Goblin is none other than Norman Osborn. To top it off you'll get the Green Goblin's origin in an edge-of-your-seat Marvel classic, and, as an amazing never-before-seen bonus, the complete pencils to Amazing Spider-Man #31!

Volume 5 - 1st printing. Collects AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (1963-1998 1ST SERIES) #41-50 and ANNUAL #3. Written by STAN LEE. Art by JOHN ROMITA Sr. and DON HECK. Cover by JOHN ROMITA, Sr. You just hit the jackpot, tiger! The MARVEL MASTERWORKS bring you another set of classic tales featuring world's most amazing super hero-the Amazing Spider-Man. With Stan Lee and John Romita bringing story after story of unmatched drama and adventure, it's Spidey at his very best! It begins with the first appearance of the bulldozer on two legs, the Rhino, and if he can't turn Spidey into an endangered species, then perhaps an out-of-control, outer-space powered Col. John Jameson might be able to do the trick. The action keeps pumping with Spidey's first meeting with the Avengers (hint, it doesn't go well), the Shocker, the return of the Lizard, Kraven the Hunter, and the debut of an all-new Vulture and the Kingpin! But the true heart of the story is in the tale of young Peter Parker finding his way in the world. He finds new independence as he gets his own pad with pal Harry Osborn, courts Gwen Stacy, and beholds one of comics' most unforgettable entrances, a certain Miss Mary Jane Watson. Of course, for poor Spidey there's just as many pitfalls as perigees, and rarely has Spidey had it worse than in "Spider-Man No More!" Softcover, 240 pages, full color. Cover price $24.99.
