Description:
Their collaboration on Spider-Man couldn't last forever-but the five-years of Stan Lee and Steve Ditko's remarkable partnership lasted long enough for their character to evolve into a timeless icon and create a fandom that would last generations. TASCHEN's second volume of Amazing Spider-Man stories collects the latter half of the duo's magnum opus, featuring brand new arch-villains the Scorpion, Molten Man, and the Crime-Master, return engagements with Kraven the Hunter and the Green Goblin-and the three-part "Master Planner Saga" that reignited a feud with an iconic mystery villain, and left behind what many comics critics declare to be the greatest super hero story of all time.
Beyond the action that faced Spider-Man-all choreographed with aplomb by the master stylist Ditko-there was also the matter of Peter Parker's maturation during a decade of social upheaval and change. With Stan Lee's blend of soap opera melodramatics and finger-on-the-pulse social sensitivities, Peter graduated from high school to college and started to deal with a myriad of adult struggles, mirroring the life experiences of the book's readership. A scrawny teenager no more, Lee and Ditko would widen his network of friends and frenemies, debuting Gwen Stacy, Harry Osborn, and, in a series of hilarious cameos, Mary Jane Watson-all characters that would develop into one of the deepest and most substantive supporting casts in all of comics. Also introduced is Harry's father, Norman Osborn, the short-tempered industrialist who would later be revealed as Spider-Man's most dreaded foe. Meanwhile, Peter's up-and-down romance with Betty Brant would reach its culm
