About this deal

The next story by Dan Slott and Jim Cheung, presenting a Spider-Man that is still going at the age of sixty, and whilst he still fights the likes of supervillains, he gets gunned down by a burglar, just like his Uncle Ben. Stunningly detailed by Jim Cheung, it is horrific seeing Spider-Man shot in the gut, lying in a pool of his own blood. However, Slott – being no stranger to the character – turns a story of initial horror into one of hope, with doctors doing their best to save him, whilst the rest of New York pays their respect to their hero. Falcoe and Cho team up for a story that shows us why Spider-Man still goes after low-level street criminals, even when alien and cosmic threats are constantly showing themselves. A fantastic way to open the issue up.

And Spidey isn’t the only Marvel hero celebrating a milestone! Campbell’s AMAZING FANTASY #1000 variant cover will be the latest in his series of stunning Anniversary Variant Covers that mark the anniversary of some of Marvel’s greatest characters. Hitting stands this month will be Campbell’s Anniversary Variant Covers for both THOR and HULK, with many more to come. All these stunning pieces will also be available as Virgin Variant Covers. Visionary writer Neil Gaiman’s and artist Steve McNiven tell a touching tale about how Spidey inspired a young fanAm always open to reading book recommendations. Add me as a friend on Goodreads to share what we read with each other: www.goodreads.com/author/show/1955739... story - Rowell/Coipel - 7.5. Very short story and it's not like it's an outstanding thing. Just a cute story. However, even if I like Coipel, his art here was not that good... He can draw better. Just Some Guy" is a fun, cute little story that I think captures some of why Spider-Man is who he is. The third story is written by Scottish satirist Armando Iannucci, collaborating with known Spidey artist Ryan Stegman, in which Peter faces a new villain “Conspiriton”, who induces through hallucinogens that alter people’s perceptions of the media and release a ton of conspiracy theories onto New York. Having directed a comic book movie, which was The Death of Stalin, Iannucci maintains his satirical edge in Marvel’s New York, where media can be easily manipulated and for J. Jonah Jameson to revel as an egomaniac. However, we are not done with the Daily Bugle as Rainbow Rowell and Olivier Coipel’s story showcases Peter’s photography, taking pictures that show a warm side of New York, rather than taking pictures of Spider-Man that will be used to ridicule him by JJJ. Slaves of the Witch-Queen" is really weird. There's a big, flashing question of "Why?" but it's by Busiek, so it's at least well-written. It's not something I would've put in this anthology, but it's not bad.

Cover image for 75960609975700121 AMAZING FANTASY 1000 JS CAMPBELL VARIANT, by Kurt Busiek & Marvel Various & Jim Cheung, in stores Wednesday, August 31, 2022 from marvel story - Busiek/Dodsons - 6.5. That was a meh story. I love Dodsons, but they are much worse here, than in Marvel Knights... Busiek wrote a weird story, however it was a direct sequel to one of the stories of the Amazing Fantasy 15 and oh god thanks that I read it, because if not - I would get almost no satisfaction from this story. So, 6.5 is fine here, I think. This weird glider-woman is a dumb idea, but I love the connection and seeing story being completed after 60 years - is a great feeling.

New York, NY— July 15, 2022 — Sixty years ago, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko introduced the world to Spider-Man in the historic AMAZING FANTASY #15! Over the course of six web-slinging decades, Peter Parker has inspired millions of fans and secured his spot as one of the most iconic fictional characters of all time. To celebrate this milestone anniversary, a lineup of incredible creators from throughout the comics industry will come together next month in AMAZING FANTASY #1000, an outstanding collection of stories that explore the past, present and future of Amazing Spider-Man storytelling and showcase why Spidey is one of the most beloved heroes in history. Spider-Man Vs. Conspirition" is probably my least favorite story here. It just doesn't really feel like it matters or says anything about Spider-Man as a character. This is a slightly unconventional anthology as far as anniversary comics go, particularly because some stories do surprising things with the character. There are tales here that celebrate what makes Spider-Man great, of course, but there are also unconventional tales like Slott’s story showing us Spider-Man in the far future or Rainbow Rowell and Olivier Coipel focusing on Peter’s photography. That mixes things up, making many of the stories in this collection quite personal. Cover image for 75960609975700111 AMAZING FANTASY #1000 JOHN ROMITA JR. COVER, by Kurt Busiek & Marvel Various & Jim Cheung & John Romita Jr., in stores Wednesday, August 31, 2022 from marvel

why would Spider-man give a damn about a single thug while the world is being threatened by higher forces? And the answer, while short, is sufficient and to the point, it’ll be meaningful to any Spidey-fans. story - Falcone/Cho - 8.5. It's really short, but nice. It has a message and the art is cool. Might be better, but it's an awesome opening for such a book. Spiderman has always been a favorite of mine even when I went through some times of partners who thought I should grow up and leave comics to kids or nerds. I guess I loved and left them, I just never was a fan of censorship in a relationship. You do change each other but never demand something of the other you found charming to begin with.In the Flesh” (written by Ho Che Anderson, and illustrated by Giuseppe Camuncoli), the closer this issue gets to the horror theme, this is a story that I believe would’ve suited better for a different kind of hero, one closer to the psychological corners, and whose main point isn’t that clear, like ‘Moon Knight’, just to mention one. The art of Camuncoli does a great job at giving us that unsettling vibe that the main character in here emanates, but unfortunately, the idea is never really that well exploited, or developed. It is interesting, and is the one that feels the most detached from the rest of the roster, but there isn’t that much to it, compared to the previous ones.
