So for few weeks probably seen me posting bunch of small reviews on issues. That's because a lot of what's collected here is only in issues and I had to remember everything that happened in this 50+ issue book.

So the legendary Roger Stern's take on Spider-Man is held up as one of the best. And you know what, for fans of this era (Late 70's, early 80's) It might just be. For me, who reads comics from all eras, I find some of the late 70's and early 80's extremely outdated, and even though Stern has a really good grasp on Spider-man and peter parker, his villains....save for Hobgoblin...are not as good.

Most of these are one shots. Some are pretty fun and Stern has Peter shoot out some really funny jokes. Some are really corny and not nearly as interesting. Hobgoblin is a great villain with a lot of mystery, and I also really enjoyed (I can't believe I'm saying this) Stiltman and Black Cat as supporting cast. However, most other villains like Thunderball sucked ass and made me roll my eyes.

I think this omnibus is fun, and I didn't hate reading it save maybe 5-6 issues out of the huge amount, but it was more of a up and down series. I don't think it's as good for me as a lot of people believe, but that's okay. It's not a product of my time, and this isn't my favorite era of comics either.

Saying that, Spidy fans should check it out. Atleast the Hobgoblin issues, those are mostly good-great.

A 3 out of 5.
