@@EvilDick1995 That’s why they succeed. Raimi and the writers took what was great about the source material on the Lee-Ditko run, and amped it up to 11. The other films deliberately took their own liberties on the intent of not rehashing what was already done in those first 3 movies.

If you want a more affordable way to read these stories they have what you call Mighty Marvel Masterworks tpb. In 3 volumes you can have all these for about $45. Each volume is like $15. Easier way to read and afford them smaller book but way cheaper and better budget!

Micheline/Bagley is a must, as is a Volume 6 to connect to the Stern Omni, and a "Symbiote Saga" to bridge the gap between Stern and Micheline/McFarlane. If I get at least these 3 Omnis, I am done collecting =)

@@cheekyknave I use to think that as well. Would look great as a collection for sure! But there are two main problems. First is they already started these “author’s runs”, so if they decided to just do volumes of ASM now, sooner or later there would be double dipping. But most importantly, at a certain point in time, Spidey had multiple publications running in parallel, telling the same story arc. If they just did ASM volumes, we would miss out, or need to buy other omnis (which could take ages to be published) and jump between them every issue to follow a continuous story. Clone saga comes to mind, I think it’s spread between 5 different Spidey publications to tell a single story.

@@Sir_Stalker I understand where you are coming from, but they have been printing omni's fo years now & have only just announced SSM vol.1 for printing, yet we are on the 4th reprint of ASM vol.1?

Spidey is the greatest of all time
Not the biggest Silver Age fan but Spidey is definitely the exception. I read these for the first time as I was reading Busiek & Olliffe''s Untold Tales of Spider-Man series. Great experience.
Just got my copy! Can’t wait!
Happy for anybody who doesn't have this who will now have an opportunity to buy it. I've got the third printing and it's a great book. I just wish marvel would continue printing at the Donnelly printer. The thin paper stock is disappointing, especially since this is a premium book. I don't know how DC does it, but the pages for even the new omnis are much thicker at mostly the same price points as the Marvel books. Hope Wolvie vol 3 is printed at the Donnelly printer
Thanks for the look Mr Near Mint
Great job as always, Omar rocks!
YES! This is the book I've been waiting for to fill that void once I get this book Ill have amazing Spider-Man omnibus vol 1-3 and vol 5. So now just need vol 4 to get that set complete for what has been released.
Great video! This is gonna be my first Omni along with thunderbolts volume 1 I can't wait!!
The colors on the AF15 cover are much more consistent with the original in the new printing.
Extras are definitely different from the 2019 reprint i have. Even your original printing has slightly different extras than the 2019 version (the Ditko cover is BW not colour in 2019, and it doesn't have that page of covers opposite the Ditko), although they are mostly the same .
I bought both covers for this vol 1 and still waiting for them to arrive. I now want Bronze age Black Panther omnibus to be released. The Taschen Spiderman is amazing!..no pun intended. They made it look like original newspaper print!

That's my strategy as well . I won't be start the reading until 1 to 5 are complete and available in the new printings as I want a continuous story. And I actually think the spine aesthetic on the new printings is actually better than the older printings ( unpopular opinion I know).
Great book I'm half way through it.. 👍👍 Pretty funny and classic how human torch and spiderman always competing with each other in this omnibus
So glad I've already got this book, cos you can already tell that the pages are thin and have bleed through as soon as the book was opened. RIP this 11/10 book
I own a third edition (2016). The extras are closer to the original printing than the latest printing, but still (slightly different). As per Pohumnom below, the Ditko unused cover is in B&W, not color.
Mine's sitting in "next shipment" on DCBS... Can't wait to get it & crack it open! I had to go for the Kirby cover 😎
Hey Omar, I have the 2013 2nd edition/printing on this Omnibus. The colours and extras contents seem identical to your first print aside from the thickness. I've pulled my book out to compare to yours and the new print. My extras only go up to the Marvel Tales covers.
I’ve always wanted to read the original comic line, but not spend my life savings on it. I’m definitely gonna check this out.
Best book ever. Save for the spine, of course 😅

Ah, yes...some of the first "Spider-Man" comics I ever read. If you are a Spider-Man fan, even in the slightest, I encourage you to get this book. One of the finest Silver Age works you'll ever find and one of the most important, and iconic, classic runs of all time. Everybody is introduced from Spider-Man lore - from his supporting cast (Flash Thompson, Liz Allan, May Parker, Ben Parker, Betty Brant, J. Jonah Jameson, Harry Osborn, Gwen Stacy, and Mary Jane Watson) to all of his villains (literally all of them except for Venom and Carnage - Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Lizard, Electro, Sandman, Kraven, Chameleon, Vulture, Mysterio, the Sinister Six, etc.). This is one heck of a book, and my personal pick for the best classic "Spider-Man" run. 60 years of Spider-Man never looked so good!
Beautiful book. I agree that anyone who likes this character and wants a nice keepsake edition should pick this up.
I Need It!! Hi from Italy!
I got the Alex Ross cover. I just need vol 4 but I might buy the DM cover for vol 1
Good to have this in my hands and good to see that my run will all have the image on the spine. Not over keen on then reducing the font on the masterworks intro by Stan Lee and everyone else, as my eyes may struggle reading In all, an ex ellent review, with tons of extras. Lets have vol 4 reprinted to complete the run please.
That spine though 😅
Nice review. I dont ike the thinner paper stock though. You can see right through the pages
My favourite omnibus.
My Dm version shipped from CGN last Thursday.
For comics as old as these are it is surprising how readable and enjoyable the stories are. I’ve read the entire book and it is definitely a worth while read. One of the more interesting aspects of the book is how petty Peter Parker is as a character. He’s got major flaws, unlikeable flaws that make the stories quite interesting.
The review was MARVEL-OUS!!!!. I won't get mine until next year.
Does anyone happen to know how the paper quality and colors on this printing compare to the 2013, 2016, and/or 2019 versions?
I just bought the newest print of vol 1 with the Alex Ross cover, I want my spines to all match when I get the rest of the omnis. Will all the other omnis have the picture on the spine??
This looks fun
Didn’t see the original AF 15 cover colored for the new printing while the first printing has it colored
