Good Comics


From the Marvel website:
SPIDER-MAN/HUMAN TORCH: I'M WITH STUPID DIGEST
Written by DAN SLOTT
Pencils & Cover by TY TEMPLETON
Cover by PAUL SMITH
Hang tight, True Believer! It's five all-new, old-school adventures featuring your favorite web-headed hero and his pal, the walking matchstick! Follow them through the years - from high school to present day, from the Negative Zone to the Coffee Bean, from Dorrie Evans to Mary Jane Watson-Parker. It's all here! Collects SPIDER-MAN/HUMAN TORCH #1-5.
120 PGS./T+ Suggested for Teens and Up $7.99
ISBN: 0-7851-1723-7

A fun read, with some laugh out loud moments. This might be a bit confusing to the casual reader, as writer Dan Slott sets the stories in various times in Spidey's life (also the different loves -- Betty Brant, Gwen Stacy, Felicia Hardy, Mary Jane Watson). But overall, an enjoyable book.
And if you're still unsure whether to read this, I have three words for you: Spider Dune Buggy.
