Amazing Fantasy #15 (1962)

With the first Sam Raimi motion picture being an origin story , there ’s no well risible to commence with thanAmazing Fantasy # 15 . This was the comic in which Spider - Man made his first appearance ; when Marvel doubted the idea of a spider - themed hero .

The people at Marvel Comics cerebrate Stan Lee and Steve Ditko ’s thought of a teenage torpedo with spider power was going to be a disaster . Now Spider - Man is much the face of the Marvel cosmos in comics , films , animated show , and telecasting secret plan .

Ultimate Spider-Man #1 (2000)

If Amazing Fantasy is a little too old - school , Ultimate Spider - Man # 1 reintroduces Peter Parker for the twenty-first hundred . It matches the more larger-than-life musical note of the Sam Raimi movies and repeat the origin narration of Peter Parker being bitten by a genetically castrate wanderer instead of a radioactive one , alike to the film .

This would cross out the commencement of the Ultimate universe of discourse andcomic book writer Brian Michael Bendiswould go on to evolve this version of Spider - Man into a familiar but fresh take on the fibre . Most magnificently , the Ultimate universe would end up make Miles Morales who became such a fan front-runner that he became part of the main Earth-616 canyon .

Spider-Man No More! (1967)

Sam Raimi ’s films are not very comical al-Qur’an precise , which is often a good matter . He make his own take on this universemuch as Tim Burton did with Batmanin the previous 80s . However , he did respect the comic and paid court to them with various scenes .

The shooter of Peter Parker leaving the case behind in the scraps and then walking off inSpider - Man 2is straight taken from The Amazing Spider - Man # 50 . This storyline which live on a mates of issuance also featured a depressed Peter Parker impart up the soubriquet of Spider - Man .

The Amazing Spider-Man #136 (1974)

Harry Osborn becoming the New Goblin inSpider - Man 3added to an already overstuff plot of ground , but it is true to the comic . In The Amazing Spider - Man # 180 , Harry Osborn follows in his forefather ’s step and becomes the second Green Goblin .

It watch over a standardised anatomical structure as the Sam Raimi version with two best friends turned into foe with Harry endeavor to revenge his father . It also shows the injury of Harry ’s inauspicious kinship with Norman .

The Amazing Spider-Man #300 (1988)

It ’s not an rare opinion among fans thatSpider - Man 3did not do the symbiote suit and Venom judge , mostly became Sam Raimi was mandated to do it by the studio . It head to some memorable consequence , such as the fight with Sandman , but it lacked compare to the comic strip .

Those wanting to see the birth of Venom should look for outThe Amazing Spider - Man # 300which unveil Eddie Brock as the new wearer of the symbiote known as Venom . Even though Venom would end up becoming an anti - hero andone of the respectable hosts for the symbiote , this comedian would become the beginning of an iconic contention .

Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #308 (2017)

One of the best ways Sam Raimi depart from the comic strip was when he took a typical thug villain such as Sandman and made him intoone of the least evil Spider - Man picture villain . Sandman is often a contender for the right Spider - Man movie villain by fans .

Unfortunately , there are not many comics that mirror the pic ’s version . However , with The Spectacular Spider - Man # 308 , Peter Parker befriends Flint Marko because the villain is choke from a disease that will turn him into nothing more than a pile of unconstipated sand . It ’s a touching comic that shows that even Spider - Man has a personal connectedness to his villain .

Web Of Death (1994)

The Clone Sagawas one of the most convoluted Spider - Man story electric arc , but it has its place in comic history . For example , Spider - Man is actually saved by Doc Ock from his dark clone : Kaine Parker . Kaine then down Doctor Octopus , have for what was a shocking death .

Though Doc Ock ’s sacrifice in Spider - Man 2 is much more of personal redemption , the destruction of such an iconic baddie is a bluff move . The connection Of Death is a compilation ofThe Amazing Spider - Man # 397 - 398andThe Spectacular Spider - Man # 220 - 221because roll up comics can never be simple .

The Amazing Spider-Man #3 (1963)

Another contender for a preferent movie villain is Doc Ock , play by Alfred Molina . Doc Ock became such an iconic villain inSpider - Man 2that he became one of the grown draw inSpider - Man : No Way Home .

Ultimately , Doc Ock was one of the earliest Spider - Man villains . He made his debut inThe Amazing Spider - Man # 3and while he may not be nearly as complex as Molina ’s version , Doctor Octopus bequeath an impact ; today he is still one of Spider - Man ’s most iconic foes .

I (Heart) Marvel: Web Of Romance (2006)

Most if not all fans can agree that Mary Jane Watson was an unsympathetic love sake of Peter Parker ’s in the Sam Raimi trilogy . It got to the period where their family relationship was downright toxic especially asthe two have a loving relationship in the comics .

A better example of their relationship is the Valentine ’s Day particular titledI ( Heart ) Marvel : web Of Romance . It has a very simple premise : Peter is trying to find the right gift for his married woman Mary Jane , and it is executed in a rather adorable style .

The Amazing Spider-Man #121 (1973)

There are plenty of memorable Green Goblin arcs to choose from that cement him as Spider - Man ’s greatest foe . However , it ’s the story of The Night Gwen Stacy Died that forever read that Green Goblin was more than a valet de chambre in a masquerade party , he was everlasting wickedness .
