The Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus #1 [Fifth Edition]
Spider-Man! kicks off with a fresh take on the web-slinger’s early days, spotlighting a volatile new threat in the form of Joe Smith, an average man transformed into a rage-fueled robotic monster after a freak accident. As Spider-Man dodges a bounty from Norman Osborn and narrowly avoids a fateful encounter with Mary Jane, the tension mounts in a story written by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, with Ditko’s signature art and inks bringing the chaos to life. The striking cover by Alex Ross adds a timeless flair to this 2022 omnibus edition.
