I was really shocked that he died at the same time when I read Hulk: Grey... It feels even worse like that. So it is a good time to come back to these stories, I think. Just to honor the memory of a guy by enjoying his awesome art.

Jeff and Tim deliver on already known levels. The Story feels just right especially the amount respect for the original work from the 60s. I never really was invested in the death of Gwen Stacy as more recent comic book fan, nevertheless do I feel the impact of that event presented in a modern story telling way. Was absolute worth it finally reading. Edit: Reading this on February 14 after a real heartbreak it resonates even stronger fu**** amazing.

I've read this book a few times now in the past decade or so, and while I think it does a lot of things well, the holes in the story get harder to look past. First things first, the Tim Sale art is impeccable and among the best work he's done in his illustrious career. You can actually see the little influences from Ditko and Romita in his poses and design choices and I think it makes Sale's work all the better for it. The Vulture fight in particular is fun, kinetic and the snowy background really brings the skirmish to life. And when Sale gets to draw either of Peter's love interests, he knocks it out of the park. His interpretations of Mary Jane and Gwen, usually in contrast to one another, are the highlight of the story and effective more
