From Wendy and Jorli
Hi - We want to connect with rave producers in Los Angeles. Can you help us out? We have
a lucrative business proposition. Thanks Wendy and Jorli
Well, it's funny you should mention that week, because just last week in
Hokatika I ran in to James Cameron... and I said... hey James, how's the
tractor resale business... and he said, going just fine, but I wish I
could find some really lucrative business propositions for my new studio,
and I said, you have been taking your pills, haven't you... and he said
no, and why is everyone staring at meeeee, and I said, come with me and
see the nice doctor...
From Peter
Congratulation for your great "Un-Official" Spider-Man Home Page.
I am a great Spider-Man fan from Germany and read Spider-Man-comics
for more than 23 years (I am 32 old)...
After several different Publishers of Spider-Man-Comics in Germany
its not easy to follow the Story... So I decide to read more english
ones...
Do you know where I can find a guide "How to read Spider-Man-Comics
from Amazing to Spectaculare and Peter Parker...etc..in correct
order, when there is a right-chronological-order"?
e.g. I read the Amazing-Story... When I HAVE TO read a Spectaculare
issue without missing a story???
Greetings from Cologne
Peter
Well... this is a good question, and one that used to bother me.
I used to keep my Spider-Man comics in "Continuity Order", i.e.
in one big mixed-up sequence of Amazing, Spectacular, Web, Annuals,
Sensational, Limited Series... in the order which they should
be read to make the most sense - very carefully structured.
The problem is, that it makes it very hard to find any particular
comic, if you're looking to scan a cover, or write a review of an
old story. Since I spend more time writing about comics nowadays,
rather than reading them - I rearranged everything to be grouped
by issue number within titles.
A canonical Spider-Man reading order would be a great thing to
have, but it's a lot of work. I'll pencil it in as a future
addition to the comics database - and hope that maybe one day
I'll find a keen enough volunteer to undertake the task!
Do Mail Me if you're interested.
From Jamil
You may have come across the rather discomforting news concerning the
indefinite stop of the marvel novels project which has apparently left
me absolutely dejected. Can you provide an update of the current
situation involving this dispute on your next quarter? The sad thing is
that the second instalment of Adam Troy Castro's trilogy REVENGE OF THE
SINISTER SIX will now be a long, agonizing wait and there are doubts
whether this book , along with any more Spidey novels will ever be
published.. For me, GATHERING OF THE SINISTER SIX was a wonderful story
and REVENGE... just promises so much and as a zealot Spider-phile, I'm
gonna end up with severe trauma.
Also, any idea as to when SPIDER-MAN UNLIMITED will appear in the UK?
Regarding the books - you are quite correct, Byron Preiss Multimedia
is now defuct.
You can read the full details on Keith R.A. DeCandido's
Marvel Novels Page,
but the heart of the matter is this:
Marvel novels will continue to be published, however. The assorted legal
tangles that caused the program to be cut short in June 1999 have
apparently been settled.
Berkley Boulevard
will finish out the original line that they co-published with the
now-all-but-defunct Byron Preiss Multimedia Company.
This will include seven titles, to be published from April-September
2000, starting with X-Men & The Avengers: Gamma Quest
Book 3: Friend or Foe by Greg Cox in April, and also including
Spider-Man: Emerald Mystery by Dean Wesley Smith; X-Men
Legends, Stan Lee, Editor; Generation X: Genogoths by J.
Steven York; Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Empyre by Will
Murray; and the paperback reprints of X-Men: Codename Wolverine
by Christopher Golden and Spider-Man: Goblin Moon by Kurt Busiek
& Nathan Archer. The exact order of when the books will be published is
still TBA.
After that, tentatively starting next fall,
BP Books will take over the program.
Former Marvel and Topps editor Dwight Jon Zimmerman is slated to take
over the editorial chores, and the program should pick up where the
Berkley/BPMC program left off.
Thanks to Keith for the update.
As for Unlimited being broadcast in the UK, you may be aware that
it's currently on hold in the U.S., so it will be a little longer.
From David
hello,
while surfing the web i came across your website and was wondering if
you could offer some information. in 1972 marvel comics released a
record of spider-man in a radio show type format titled "From Beyond The
Grave" it was also billed as a "Rockomic". could you direct me to a site
that might have a copy of it on cd or cassette and have a idea what the
value of the record(vinyl copy) would be worth.
thank you
I have an LP "Rockomic" and a 45 rpm single entitled "Reflections
of a Super-Hero". Problem is, my Mom has them, back home. I'll try and
get those scanned in and put some info on the page as soon as I can.
It'll be under the
Spider-Man Recordings (Music)
when it's done. Sorry I can't help you right away!
Oh, I paid US $25 for the 45 single (from the late 60's or early 70's).
The cover was rather beaten up. If it's in good condition, I'd say that
they would be worth a tidy sum on eBay.
From camilla
who did the spider man costume?
Answer me pleace
pleace.
From BRENDAN
to whom this concerns
i cant find spiderman anywhere in a video store or on t.v
what can i do
Nope, I asked around, but nobody here is concerned.
From Aspen
Hello, I was just at your website and I have to say, it's one of the best
Spider-Man websites I've been to. You seem to know a lot about Spider-Man and
I'm hopping you could help me with a question of mine. Below is a picture from
the Green Goblin 1(Norman Osborn) villain profile from "Spider-Man Unmasked".
I was wondering if you could tell me which comic issue it came from, it
doesn't say in the book. I'd really appreciate it if you could help me, and if
you can't thank you anyway.
Well... it refers to Harry and Norman, so it must be after ASM #39 and
before ASM #122. It doesn't look like Romita. I'm guessing it's from
the drug issues - ASM #96-#98.
