About this Collection

This Epic Collection volume of Amazing Spider-Man, subtitled 'Spider-Man - Threat Or Menace?', reprints a run of classic 1970s issues that explore the public's fear and distrust of the web-slinger. The stories pit Spider-Man against a rogues' gallery of villains while also dealing with the personal consequences of his secret identity and the media's portrayal of him as a dangerous vigilante. It's a key installment in the Epic Collection line, showcasing a pivotal era for the character.

In "The Way to Dusty Death," the Venom Symbiote, feigning death, begins a new scheme to break free from The Vault. As Eddie Brock faces trial, Matt Murdock takes on his defense and convinces Spider-Man to testify—setting the stage for a tense courtroom showdown. Written by Peter David and illustrated by Jim Craig, with inks by Dan Day and David Day, colors by Tom Smith, and letters by Ken Lopez, this gripping tale features a cover by Mark Bagley and Randy Emberlin.
