SOLICIT TEXT:

"In 1962, in the pages of a comic book slated for cancellation, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko gave birth to one of the most-enduring icons in American popular media - the one and only Amazing Spider-Man! Turning the concept of a super hero on its head, they imbued the young, guilt-ridden Peter Parker with the fantastic powers of an arachnid and the fantastic pressures of an everyday teenager. The combination was pure magic.

Over the course of 40 issues of webslinging, wisecracking wonderment Lee and Ditko built the foundation for 45 years of Spidey spectaculars - girl trouble, bill trouble, bully trouble, the Daily Bugle, and a cast friends, family, and, of course, super villains unlike any other!

Completing the entire Stan Lee/Steve Dikto Spider-Man run in one massive volume including every page, every pinup, and every letters column. Not to mention unused covers, critical essays, and bonuses galore!

We went back to the Mighty Marvel Archive to restore each and every page in this volume for painstaking accuracy to the originals. There’s no kidding — this collector’s edition is the guaranteed be-all, end-all book for the Spider-Man fan!"
