WOW! this is a truely amazing book on an amazing super-hero. When Stan Lee first put what he had dreamt in his head onto paper he didn't know that this 'superhero' would be the most common well-known super-hero of all time... he didn't know that spiderman would still be the biggest talked about (superhero) name 45+ yrs later.so now he does he wants everyone to know about his villains and his closest family too...so he(and Tom) wrote a book on it!
Written by Tom Defalco and also some illustrations by him too. the variousity of illustraters include Mark Bagley, John Romita and Steve Ditko.
This book brings together (biographies of) all spiderman's most mightiest foe's, a biography of his family(including his parents mary and richard parker) and friends(which include MJ Watson, Gwen Stacy, flash thompson and Ben Rielly AKA scarlet spider). It tells the story of peter's life right back from when he got bitten by a radioactive spider that transformed him into amazing Spider-Man to his worst battles against a host of villains such as Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Venom and Carnage. "spider-man: the ultimate guide" brings you everything you ever wanted to know about the wall-crawler(except how his parents came back (from the plane crash)...you'll have to read the comics to find out), including the thrilling events and personalities that have shaped the life of one of the world's best-known comic-book and now tv(and silver screen) characters.
