Book Summary Information

Summary of Spider-man: The Ultimate Guide

Ever since he was bitten by a radioactive spider and transformed into the amazing Spider-Man, Peter Parker has been astounding comic-book fans with his breathtaking acrobatics, as well as his battles against a host of villains, such as the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, the Rhino, and Venom. Spider-Man: The Ultimate Guide brings you everything you ever wanted to know about the wall-crawler, including the thrilling events and personalities that have shaped the life of one of the world's best-known comic-book characters.

With unique access to nearly 40 years' worth of publications from the Spider-Man archives, Spider-Man: The Ultimate Guide provides the in-depth guide to the world of the web-swinger. The book contains over 600 full-color images, including specially commissioned artwork that has never been seen before, and a detailed text which offers a comprehensive guide to all of the major characters and stories. Altogether, this book is a must-have for any Spider-Man fan.

DeFalco makes some small missteps--inevitable in any fan-boy project--and certainly The Ultimate Guide will feel dated as the series evolves, but as a comprehensive guide, it just doesn't get any better. Throw in a foreword by the inimitable Stan Lee, and you've got a book that would make even Peter Parker proud. --Paul Hughes
