    Volume 1 - 1st printing. Collects The Amazing Spider-Man (1963-1998 1st Series) #1-21. Written by Stan Lee. Art and Cover by Steve Ditko. When Stan Lee first pitched the idea of Spider-Man in 1962, his boss was full of objections: People hate spiders. Teenagers aren't lead characters; they're sidekicks. He should be glamorous and successful, not a friendless loser. But Stan persisted and Amazing Spider-Man broke the comics mold. Peter Parker lived in uncool Queens, was always broke, continually worried about his Aunt May, was unlucky in love, and was constantly getting yelled at by his boss, Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson. Spider-Man had the quips and confidence that Parker lacked, but learning to use his powers wasn't always easy. First available as an XXL-sized collector's dream, close in size to the original artworks, this compact edition features the first 21 stories of the world's favorite web slinger from 1962-1964. This robust collection of wall-crawling wonder will make anyone's spider-sense tingle with anticipation. Hardcover, 8-in. x 12-in., 710 pages, full color. All Ages Cover price $80.00.
