 Exactly as advertised...the first 30 years of Spidey! November 3, 2009
Joe K. Bolin (San Jose, CA USA)
I LOVE this set! The scans are in .pdf, so I was able to transfer them to my iPhone and view through the Documents to Go app. Excellent to have 30 years of the wonderful wall-crawler in my pocket!
I really think there should be more of these out there! October 4, 2009

I wish more comics were available in digital format. I personally love to read comics and study these old beautiful books. However I neither have the shelf space to collect millions of comics, nor do I have the money to purchase moldy old paper backs that are grossly over priced and sealed in plastic bags. The other thing is that most graphic novel collections have really crappy color reproduction (It's like some clown just hit fill in Photoshop and then hit print!!) These collections are perfect for some one who loves comic art and wishes to simply read and study the art work. One thing I have noticed that really irritates me is that some people have bought up copies of these collections and marked up the price so high no one in their right mind can buy them. This is foolish as these are just scanned digital versions of these works of art and carry no real or lasting value except as reading material and as an essential reference material for artists. I would say to all of you involved in the practice of marking up these treasures, shame on you!! Go back to hocking over priced Back issues at lest you have a leg to stand on there! As they are at lest physical paper printings. Back to these wonderful book, I do realize that the big name comics desire higher profits then a one time fifty dollar collection of their entire run of a title but there are plenty of amazing smaller or defunded companies that have vast and amazing libraries! Companies like Gold Key, Gladstone, Dell, Charlton, and many many others would benefit form having their libraries archived digitally. As a young artist I feel there is a lot to be learned from the talented illustrators of the past and it would be a great service to all young aspiring writers and artists to have a viewable heritage to research and study. Keep it up "Graphic Image Technology" Inc. !!
Great colection from paper to digital August 13, 2009

I had the entire collection of Spider-Man when I was a kid, being an adolescent I decided it was time to let go my collection, that was my worst mistake in my life, I had a second chance and here I am, owner of this digital collection, if you are a true Spidey fan get it, is worth it and is way too cheap.
In a word - Amazing ! August 4, 2009
Douglas B. Rapson (Pennsylvania, USA)
In high school and college I collected the dead tree editions of several Spidey books. Spectacular and Web Of were my two staples. But as a die hard Spidey fan, having all of these issues on one disc, is unbelievable. Going back to Day One and seeing those first appearances is really cool. Likewise, it was a lot of fun to see where the modern-day story line has gone.
Another great aspect of these archived issues is seeing all of the original ads. Forget Xbox and Playstation, all the cool kids want an NES or a Genesis under their Christmas tree this year. Lots of nostalgia for spider-fans of any era. The compelling art, great story lines, complete with all of the Annuals. Its all here. If you love the Webhead, or know someone who does, this is a great way to enjoy all of the storylines, without taking up several closets to archive these issues in the requisite boards, bags, and boxes.
And all of the villains are here. The various goblins, Sandman, Rhino, right on through to Venom and Carnage. Plus the super sexy curves of Mary Jane as she's been drawn through the years. Makes me want to get my hands on some of the other collections available, such as Ghost Rider.
 awesome value. know what you're getting though. June 10, 2009
Jeremy J. Adams (Laurel, MD United States)
Being able to instantly read any Amazing Spider-Man comic is a dream. I hope this sells well enough for marvel to continue this. I can't recommend this enough.
The 2 lone and insignificant caveats:
1. These are hand-scanned images of the comics. So the old ones look a little washed out and all the ads are there (which I think is awesome, even the staple!)
2. During most of the 90's, storylines frequently crossed through all the Spider-titles (Amazing, Spectacular, No Adjective). You only get the Amazing issues, so You'll get a lot of dead issues that leave you wondering what just happened and how it ends.
Final note: If you get an annoying watermark on every page, get a new PDF reader. I use Adobe (free) with no problems.
