Spider-Man Timeline ’95-’96: Indispensable Spider-Man Pt 12

Our penultimate Indispensable Spider-Man has landed! Yes, we will be ending our listing of the essential issues in the Spider-Man timeline soon, as we will be taking a loooooong break after the next installment, which will go up to the "Final Chapter" storyline that occurs just before the Amazing Spider-Man numbering "reboot". This is perhaps the most controversial list, as it covers Ben Reilly's time as the focus of the monthly Spider-Man. Some would remove these issues entirely, though Peter Read more [...]

The Indispensable Spider-Man continues again with this week's installment. Just as last week's group of Chronological Spider-man issues was perhaps one of the best runs ever, we delve into one of most notoriously self-indulgent runs.

Before we get down to the details, here's the criteria to how Read more [...]

There are two reasons for this; first, because of the great story of the rise and fall of Harry Osborn, and second, because "it's mine". This is smack dab during my golden age of comic collecting. Now that I got that off my chest: Welcome to our latest installment of the Indispensable Spider-Man, featuring the chronological Spider-Man essential issues list from 1991 to 1994. Add this to Read more [...]

Enter: the Modern Age of Spider-Man! (Personally, I think we should start calling it the Chromium Age.) Hello Marvelites, Spider-Fans and/or M.M.M.S. members (see original Stan Lee era letter pages if you don't get the reference!). We continue our series of chronological Spider-Man essential issues list (released every Friday!) which ushers in the modern age of Spider-Man, marked with Todd McFarlane's move from Amazing Spider-Man to his newly created Spider-Man title created just for him Read more [...]

Our "Indispensable Spider-Man" series is a number of lists that contain the essential issues to read, from the beginning, to get the full Spider-Man experience while not reading too much of the filler that's out there. A new installment comes every Friday, and today we tackle the end run of the Copper Age, which features oh so many changes to the Spider-Man chronology status quo (hence Read more [...]
