What are the best Spidey-runs? I really love early USM and I've been thinking about rereading Strazynski, haven't read it for years - does it hold up?
What are everyones favourite Spidey-storylines? Mine is probably the six arms saga.
Also, what's been happening in the Spider-comics since Superior?

>does it hold up
In my opinion, yes.
I recommend the original by Lee and Ditko/Romita if old doesn't bother you, anything by Roger Stern or J.M. DeMatteis. Anything Spider-Man related by Zeb Wells and Spider-Man: Fever
>What are everyones favourite Spidey-storylines?
Nothing Can Stop The Juggernaut is my personal favourite.
Can't answer the last question because I stopped caring around Spider-Island.

it's been pretty meh after Superior, there was Spider-verse and then some filler before Secret wars. Now he's fighting Zodiac and juggling that with managing Parker Industries
have a bump bc I need some recommended runs too

I think Gerry Conway's run can get delightfully dilly like the Doc Ock/Aunt May Marrage and ghost hammer head but over all its a really solid and mature run. Specifically the original clone saga (143-151) was very suspenseful and significant with the plot juxtaposeing very well with the romantic (sub) plot.
I also love most of J.M.Demathis's run, Tom Defalco's run and JMS's stuff is mostly good I think.

too add to you guys' lists I liked Michelinie's run and also there's Marvel Adventures Spider-Man
if you dig the old stuff look for Marvel Team-Up and The Spectacular Spider-Man loved the Peter David and Mantlo issues
for some of the turn oof the century issues I'll go with Mark Millar's Marvel Knights Spider man and the one Matt Kindt did I think it got reprinted as Marvel Knights: Spider-Man: Fight Night also check out Jenkins' stuff

As for the current direction, Peter is written so poorly that the only was I can rationalize him as the same character is by saying his wealth made him an actual asshole. There was a multiversal crossover directly after superior where they had to save every spider-man ever and now we still have to deal with the reproductions of meanwhile no lasting consequences from the superior era except for the contrivance of Black Cat super villain and Parker Industries. Now it's 8 months later and Peter Parker is a house hold name comparable to Tony Stark except no one knows he's spider-man. He's also fighting the Zodiac like someone says. He hangs out in China most days now

Millar's or the one where Marco Rudy was an artist?
>>82551316
Millar's, I'm a sucker for how he wrote the villains and Black Cat
Also, OP, Spider-Man and Deadpool by Joe Kelly has been the best Spider-Man book being printed today
can't go wrong with Lee/Ditko/Romita
