The Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus Vol. 3

Few comic books have ever come close to reaching the page-turning power,
action, and drama of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Guided by Stan Lee, John
Romita Sr. and Gil Kane, Spidey grew to become not just the most
relatable hero in comics, but also the industry's top seller! And you'll
see the reasons why again and again in this truly amazing third Omnibus
collection. One iconic story follows another: the Stone Tablet Saga,
the debut of Black Widow's new look, Kingpin's Shakespearean family
drama, Captain Stacy's tragic death, the pathos of Peter Parker's love
triangle with Gwen Stacy and Spidey, the historic Comics Code-defying
"drug" issues, and Morbius the Living Vampire's debut! Collecting
