The Story
The Amazing Spider-Man swung into newsprint on Monday, January 3, 1977! The web-slinger's daily strip brought Marvel's most popular hero from comic pages to newspapers worldwide. Through Stan Lee's storytelling and John Romita's masterful art, the strip delivered dramatic storylines that pitted Spidey against classic foes while introducing brand new characters. In doing so, the strip helped make Spider-Man a household name beyond the comic book stands.
1978 picks up right where '77 left off as Peter Parker grows closer to new love interest Tana Mendori--until she reveals her father is a notorious terrorist! From there, Spider-Man must battle a new Mysterio, and face off once again with Doctor Doom!
This series collects the strip strictly by year, reprinting each installment from January 1 to December 31. Each volume measures 11" x 8.5" in a horizontal format. Additionally, each book slides into a vertical slipcase, designed for protection and easy shelving.
