Cover by Jack Kirby and Paul Reinman. Marvel is proud to celebrate the 60th Anniversaries of the X-Men and Avengers - by presenting each and every Marvel comic from the month of their debut! By July 1963, the Marvel Age of Comics was taking over. Marvel was creating hit after hit, and two series that debuted the same month - X-MEN and AVENGERS - were destined to have a historic impact! They've taken over modern pop culture, but back in 1963, they were just a small part of a much larger and more varied tapestry on the newsstands! Marvel also unveiled groundbreaking Annuals, experimented with a new type of war comic, continued their tales of frontier justice and appealed to an audience not interested in fisticuffs with teen humor and romance titles. It was an amazing and very different time - and you can immerse yourself in the era right here! Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 656 pages, full color. All Ages Cover price $100.00.

We know where Spider-Man was: Making his historic debut in Amazing Fantasy #15.

The FF squared off against Namor and Doctor Doom. Kid Colt mixed it up with the Circus of Crime. Millie the Model got mixed up in more Hanover hijinks. Patsy and Hedy worked on their frenemy-ship. Star-crossed lovers dealt with the ups and downs of romance, all while tales of horror and fantasy stories crept from the pages of titles like Strange Tales.

It's time for another round of webslinging wonderment by two of the men who put the 'master' in Masterworks, Stan 'The Man' Lee and 'Jazzy' John Romita. They'll be coming at you in this arachnid eighth volume with a storyline as epic as they come: The Saga of the Stone Tablet!

It's a Peter Parker pressure cooker only gets that only gets turned up from there!

Volume 10 - 1st printing. Collects The Amazing Spider-Man (1963-1998 1st Series) #88-99.

Written by STAN LEE. Art by JOHN ROMITA and GIL KANE. Cover by GIL KANE.

Prepare yourself for a collection of no-holds-barred Spider-Man classics that defined comicdom's favorite super hero unlike any other! Starting off with the return of one of Spidey's oldest foes, Doctor Octopus, the two archenemies set into motion a gut-wrenching series of events leading to the death of Captain George Stacy. Ally to Spider-Man and father to Peter Parker's ladylove, Gwen, Captain Stacy's death marks Spidey for murder and pits the entire city against him. Now with hero, villain and even the man-on-the-street after him, there's no moment for rest for the ol' web-slinger as he wriggles his way through threats from the X-Men's Iceman to the politicking Sam Bullit and former friend the Prowler. And it all leads into one of the landmark moments of Marvel history, the Comics Code defying "drug" issues. There's no question Stan Lee's Marvel Comics strove for a relevance that the competition could only dream of - and with AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #96-98, that mission was placed front and center: Peter Parker's best friend, Harry Osborn, was revealed to be a drug addict. Letting a battle with Spidey's nemesis, the Green Goblin, take a back seat to the personal drama that scourged the real-life streets of the reader's world, the Lee/Kane/Romita team set a new standard for the mainstream's relevance.

Stan Lee pens some of his greatest scripts, chock full of edge-of-your-seat drama and up-to-the-moment politics, while the incomparable artistic team-up of John Romita and Gil Kane launches into the most lavishly illustrated and panel-bursting artwork to ever grace the pages of a Marvel comic. There's no denying it, True Believer, these are Masterworks one and all!

Written by STAN LEE and ROY THOMAS. Art by GIL KANE and JOHN ROMITA, Sr. Cover by JOHN ROMITA, SR.

The Marvel Masterworks celebrate Spider-Man's centennial bow with ten classic Spidey adventures created by a quartet of the greatest talents in comics' history! Stan Lee and Gil Kane start it off with Peter Parker's attempt to cure himself from his spider-powers gone horribly wrong. Yes, it's the six-armed Spider-Man! And he'll need the extra arms to handle Morbius the Living Vampire, in his first appearance, and the cold rage of Lizard. Rascally Roy Thomas joins the fray and then takes Spidey and his bikini-clad gal, Gwen Stacy, into the forgotten jungle known as the Savage Land to face towering beasts, Kraven the Hunter, and J. Jonah Jameson to boot! When Stan returns the Spider Slayer comes with him, and right behind him is the talented pencil of John Romita. In what Romita cites as the favorite artwork of his storied Spidey career, Stan and the Jazzy One leap into an adventure teaming up Spidey and Doctor Strange against a mystic threat from Vietnam while Flash Thompson's life hangs in the balance!

Written by STAN LEE and GERRY CONWAY. Art by JOHN ROMITA, SR. and GIL KANE. Cover by JOHN ROMITA, SR.

The tension-torn adventures of comics' most put-upon super hero, the Amazing Spider-Man, continue in another round of Marvel Masterworks classics! Stan Lee kicks it off with one of his craziest creations of all time, the Gibbon. And when that bestial baddy teams up with the vengeful Kraven the Hunter-well, it's enough excitement to give a hero an ulcer-and it does! Then, words between Peter's lovely gal Gwen and Aunt May push his doting aunt out of his life and into the arms of-an octopus! Doc Ock returns to do in Spidey, but with Hammerhead, the only gangster with more steel in his dome than in his gun, waging a turf war to take over the city it's open season on spiders! Always a man of the people, Spidey uncovers the machinations of a mayoral candidate who's not quite what he seems. Let's just say there's no doubt Richard Raleigh put the "action" in political action, alright? And topping it off comes a knuckle-busting, knock-down, drag-out fight between Spider-Man and the Incredible Hulk that's one for the ages!

Written by GERRY CONWAY. Art by GIL KANE, ROSS ANDRU and JOHN ROMITA. Cover by JOHN ROMITA SR.

Norman Osborn's memory has returned. The Green Goblin is back. Gwen Stacy is missing. And it will all lead to a confrontation atop the George Washington Bridge whose aftermath will leave Peter Parker, the Amazing Spider-Man, forever changed. That's right it's the-spoiler warning!- death of Gwen Stacy, the story that put a generation into therapy and cemented the Green Goblin's name as the definition of evil. The Marvel Masterworks present this tragic tale and a host of Spider-Man classics that would come to define the Webspinner's world for years to come: the debut of Col. John Jameson's werewolf curse, the Man-Wolf. The beginning of Harry Osborn's descent into madness and suspicion and a certain green costume. The first appearance of Frank Castle-the Punisher-the maybe-villain, maybe-anti-hero who would rise to become one of Marvel's most famous characters. Topping it off, there's first appearance of the nefarious Jackal, the return of the Vulture, Hammerhead, the hilarious Human Torch-built Spider-Mobile, and the shocking wedding of Aunt May and Doctor Octopus!

Add to that the debut of fan-favorite Spidey artist Ross Andru and what you have is a Marvel Masterworks!

Art by BILL EVERETT, JOHN ROMITA, CARL BURGOS, RUSS HEATH, and WAYNE BORING. Cover by CARL BURGOS. As the '50s dawned and the Atlas Era was born, the day of the Nazi-stomping super hero had passed, and in its place came a new style of hero reflective of the changing times.

In this incredible environment, young Robert developed marvelous powers of telepathy and superhuman strength, combined with a pair of amazing photonic wristbands. These astonishing powers made him Marvel Boy, cosmic protector of the solar system! The Hero Revival: The year was 1953, and with fear of Communism clutching the nation's attention, Atlas Comics publisher Martin Goodman tapped Stan Lee - along with artists John Romita, Bill Everett, Carl Burgos and Russ Heath - to stage a revival of the most-famous super heroes of the era.

In the 1950s Mighty Marvel was known by another name-Atlas-and during that era of tension and paranoia Stan Lee brought together the best and brightest artists of the era, all to scare the pants off you!

From titans of the times like Joe Maneely, Bill Everett and Bernie Krigstein, to young talents like John Romita, Gene Colan and John Buscema, they all came together to make Strange Tales one of the greatest horror mags of the day. Populated by vampires, ghouls, werewolves, mad scientists, stone-cold killers and outer space evils with an eye towards Earth, every issue brims with dark and horrific stories as could only be crafted in the days before the Comics Code. So come share a coffin with the Marvel Masterworks and take a strange trip to the time when horror ruled the racks and the only thing scarier than the stories was turning the lights out after you read them.
