The Amazing Spider-Man: The Death of Gwen Stacy by Gerry Conway

4.0

Finally got the chance to read this, and all I can say is that I understand why it's a classic. It's obviously written for its time (i.e. the "don't do drugs, kids" lesson that weaves its way into the main plot of the story), but for those who are interested in seeing how comics respond to the world and culture around them, it can be fun to see. Generally, it's clear to see that this comic took great strides in the evolution of Spiderman (and probably the types of problems that heroes face/how they face them in general), and I'm really glad I finally got my hands on it.
