Originally selected this one with the idea of browsing quickly through it to view the original artwork of Steve Ditko and instead wound up reading it from cover to cover. Enjoyed it so much that I've picked up the next volume. Gotta see how the Betty Brant story concludes!

I hate that I read the first 9 comics of this 6 months ago, and that I did not write updates when I updated. I now don't know what I'd rate this, so I'll just go with the final two I just read.
3,5-4 stars!
There was a terrible panel of Betty saying her life is nothing without Peter in it, and I know this was written in the 60s but honestly.. that was just gross.
The drawing and writing is hilariously awful at times, but it's still so entertaining overall!

Back to where it all started. Jack Kirby and Stan Lee working on the first issues of Spiderman. Did it age well? in some areas yes, and in other areas no. Still, this book is legendary and should be read or at the very least glimpsed through.

Spider-Man has always been my favorite super hero and I really enjoy these older comics (and Stan Lee). They're light and fun and just a little ridiculous. It was really fun to see Spider-Man's origin!

Azért voltak kétségeim, de kiderült, hogy Spider-Man első néhány kalandja* az eltelt 50+ év dacára is szórakoztató tudott maradni. Jó, ezek a régi képregények nyilván kicsit más hozzáállást igényelnek, de ha nem kéred rajta számon a mai képregények rajzolását és történetvezetését, akkor jól fogsz szórakozni. Egyébként meglepőnek találtam, hogy a sok csihi-puhi mellett, már akkor is érintettek olyan mélyebb témákat, mint pl. egy családtagunk elvesztése felett érzett fájdalom vagy a bullying, plusz Peter Parkerünk egyéb lelki vívódása is többször előtérbe kerül.
Szóval kifejezetten jó olvasmányélmény volt, és valamikor a közeljövőben folytatni fogom a következő kötettel.
*A kötet a The Amazing Spider-Man #1-10 számait tartalmazza.

The 60s were a different time, that’s for certain. The comics are a serious glimpse into the stylings of the time, and it’s always interesting to see how a juggernaut started moving initially.

I have been really craving going into Spiderman's true origins. But I think it will take me a while to get used to the style. I don't think the language of the 60's suits me that much, and this is just a personal problem.
