	AMAZING SPIDER-MAN EPIC COLLECTION: GREAT POWER TPB Volume #1 in the Amazing Spider-Man Epic Collections NEW PRINTING! Written by STAN LEE Penciled by STEVE DITKO with JACK KIRBY Cover by STEVE DITKO In 1962, in the pages of a comic book slated for cancellation, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko gave birth to one of the most enduring icons in American popular culture: the Amazing Spider-Man! Turning the concept of a super hero on its head, they imbued the young, guilt-ridden Peter Parker with the fantastic powers of an arachnid and the fantastic pressures of an everyday teenager. The combination was pure magic. Now you can leap into Spider-Man’s web-slinging world from the beginning — including the tragic origin that started it all; the first appearances of the Daily Bugle and J. Jonah Jameson; and the debut of classic villains including the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, the Sandman, the Vulture and Electro!
