The only issue-by-issue, story-by-story, the history of Spider-Man comics from the wall crawler’s first appearance in Amazing Fantasy #15 (August 1962) to the present. Fully illustrated with archival images.
From the moment Spider-Man first appeared on the cover of Marvel’s Amazing Fantasy #15 in August 1962, it was clear that creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko had made something extraordinary. This is the story of how a mild-mannered high-school kid named Peter Parker swung his way into comic book history.
In Spider-Man Total Universe, pop culture historian and curator Patrick A. Reed mines the Marvel archive and his own decades-long knowledge of Spider-Man to unearth every aspect of the making of this comic hero’s dynasty, tracing every storyline, story arc, crossover event, saga, one-shot, and limited series. There are profiles for every key character in Spider-Man’s universe along with tributes to the writers and illustrators who brought it all to life. Including thousands of images from the Marvel archives, Spider-Man Total Universe is the must-have collection for every Spider-Man fan.
