The Amazing Spider-Man, vol. 1

Swing into super-nostalgia with this collection of the earliest Spider-Man stories by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Discover the first-ever appearance of classic characters like Doctor Octopus and the Green Goblin, as well as Peter Parker’s tragic origin story and the beginning of the famous phrase: “With great power comes great responsibility…”

Secret Wars

This is the ultimate Marvel crossover: a cosmic extravaganza that makes Infinity War look like small potatoes by comparison! Witness a world where hundreds of parallel dimensions are compressed into a single planet, ruled by God-Emperor Doom and policed by an army of Thors. And did we mention the giant wall holding back a horde of zombie superheroes?
