Filled from stem to stern with heroic Spidey battles against the likes of the villainous Vulture, Mysterio and Medusa of the Inhumans, this one's a nail-biter if there ever was, and here's the real treat: The year was 1968 and the manic madmen who managed mighty Marvel met to make a new mega-magazine-THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN!

Tying directly into the long-running storylines in AMAZING, the new series exploded on the stands first with a marvelous graywash masterpiece, and then with a 58-page, Romita-illustrated Spider-Man/Green Goblin fight to the finish that is reprinted here and now for the first time ever! And no, we're not going to let you catch your breath before you leave because it all wraps up with the sensational origin of Peter Parker's parents as Spider-Man battles no less than the Red Skull!

Weighing in at a whopping 320 pages, you'll be glad you socked away your lunch money for this one!
