Reading this as part of the Roger Stern Omnibus on Spider-man and...well it's a product of its time.

One thing that is kind of nice is all these stories feel individual save one or two with two part storylines. There's a villain, a lady, who keeps popping back up in almost every issue but for the most part can read a issue and get a complete story.

But most of these are for sure old school comic, saturday morning cartoon stories. None really stuck with me, save for a few funny moments with Spider-man and his villains. Most of these villains felt lackluster, and not very scary. Spider-man's regular life was decent, with cute romance with Deb, but overall nothing to write home about.

Roger Stern seems to have the chopping blocks for Spider-man himself, and he writes Peter solid, but the plotting has a lot to be desired. However, we'll see how the rest of his run measures up to this one.
