Lots to like in this volume including the long teased first appearance of Mary Jane Watson who introduces herself to Peter Parker with a memorable, possibly iconic, opening line. If her hip/hippie speak in subsequent appearances has perhaps dated poorly, MJ does offer a free spirited contrast to the more conventional Gwen Stacy for the affections of young Peter Parker. Other highlights from this Marvel Masterworks entry include a guest appearance from the Avengers who consider the admission of Spider-Man to the team, the first appearance of The Kingpin, and the landmark story "Spider-Man No More" where Peter Parker both literally [his costume] and figuratively throws away his Spider-Man alter ego. Classic indeed!

Fantastic comics, as I've come to expect from marvel. I liked this collection the best so far. I felt like it was the most cohesive. Maybe it's because they've had more time to develop the character now
