Spider-Man Collecting Guide & Reading Order (1963-2018)

Updated Dec 24, 2024! The Spider-Man comic books definitive issue-by-issue collecting guide and trade reading order for omnibus, hardcover, and trade paperback collections. Find every issue and appearance! Part of Crushing Krisis’s Crushing Comics. Last updated December 2024 with titles scheduled for release through July 2025.

Looking for Miles Morales, Spider-Man? He has his own guide!

There is no hero more synonymous with Marvel Comics than Spider-Man.

Ever since his debut in August of 1962, Peter Parker as Spider-Man has experienced more widespread recognition, popularity, and prolific appearances than any other Marvel hero debuted before or since. Even after he transformed from a scrawny nerd to a superhero, Peter Parker remained relatable thanks to his air of an underdog who somehow found a way to win. He’s also a fine role model, with the motto “With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility.”

Over fifty years of comic books focused on just one hero means there are many great Spidey stories out there to read – so many, in fact, that it is hard to know where to begin or what order they should be read in. Add to that the gradual appreciation of back issues, and for a new fan it might seem like enjoying Spider-Man is an insurmountable task.

Luckily, the vast majority of those comics have been collected into dozens of softcover graphic novels, called “trade paperbacks,” and the issues they contain fall into a discernible reading order. This page covers all of them – every issue, every collection – close to every appearance. If you want to figure out the best way to read Spidey, this page is your headquarters.

First, to make things less confusing, this guide details three distinct formats of classic collections:

• Essentials: Black & White collections of Spider-Man’s classic series
• Epic Collections: Full-color paperback collections of huge, gapless chunks of material released in random order
• Marvel Masterworks: Sequential, premium-format color collections of early issues of Amazing Spider-Man and Marvel Team-Up.

Then, I tackle Spider-Man’s titles issue-by-issue, chronologically from his debut through present day:

• Silver Age Spider-Man: The debut of Spider-Man’s flagship title, Amazing Spider-Man
• The 70s – Spectacular Spider-Man: Marvel adds Spectacular Spider-Man & Marvel Team-Up
• The 80s – A Tangled Web: Amazing, Spectacular, Team-Up, and Web of Spider-Man.
• The Early 90s – Venomous: Amazing, Spectacular, Web of, Spider-Man, and Spider-Man Unlimited
• The Mid-90s – The Clone Years: Continues all five titles, plus Spider-Man Team-Up
• The Late 90s – The Next Chapter: Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 2 and Peter Parker: Spider-Man
• Spider-Man by J. Michael Straczynski: Amazing, Peter Parker, Spider-Man’s Tangled Web, Spectacular Vol. 2, Marvel Knights, and Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man
• Spider-Man’s Brand New Day: Amazing Spider-Man goes bi-weekly
• Spider Man’s Big Time by Dan Slott: Amazing Spider-Man & Avenging Spider-Man
• Superior Spider-Man by Dan Slott: Superior Spider-Man and Superior Spider-Man Team-Up
• Amazing Spider-Man by Dan Slott: Amazing Spider-Man
• All-New, All-Different Spider-Men: Amazing Spider-Man by Dan Slott and Spider-Man/Deadpool

Spider-Man Essentials

Amazing Spider-Man Epic Collections

Have you ever wished you could own an entire series in one consistent, convenient, full-color bookshelf format? Most collectors would scream “YES!” to answer that query, and in 2014 Marvel finally granted their wish with Epic Collections. These are affordable, full-color collections of issues in perfect continuity order without a single gap.

The catch? Marvel is releasing them in a random order to focus on the biggest gaps first – since early issues are already well-covered by both Essentials and Masterworks.

Spider-Man Masterworks

Marvel Masterworks editions are high quality, full color reproductions of original issues. The volumes were originally released as hardcovers, with many now out of print.

The same print sequence of books is now being released as paperbacks. If you decide to buy hardcovers, the newest editions are 2003 or newer, with silver dustjackets.

Silver Age Spider-Man

Spider-Man was introduced in the final issue of anthology series Amazing Fantasy in 1962, where his origin as an every-day geek turned crime-fighter via mad science and an unfortunate tragedy captured the imagination of an adoring public. Stan Lee and Steve Ditko quickly debuted him in his own title only a few months later, where his first issue featured a guest appearance from The Fantastic Four!

Unlike other pencillers of the time, Ditko’s illustrations of Spider-Man and his gallery of rogues have hardly aged – his iconic early covers depict a bold, lithe version of Spidey that remains relevant to this day. John Romita, Sr. took over art duties with issue #39, and began a run with Lee that would close out the decade and include a series of classic stories still referenced today.

Spider-Man’s Brand New Day (2008-2010):
Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #546-647 – AKA The Bi-Weekly Spidey Merry-Go-Round

One More Day did two major things to reset the status quo, which was a sort of good new / bad news combo for fans.

First, it hit the reset button on some of Spidey’s continuity, including the revelation of his identity to the public and the seriousness of his relationship with Mary Jane. This effectively de-aged the character without making him young, better aligning him the fun and carefree Peter Parker of the cartoons and movies.

As you can imagine, most fans disliked that change. However, the second one was much better received: multiple titles were condensed down just to Amazing, which accelerated to a bi-weekly production schedule with a rotating cast of writers.

This was a genius decision by Marvel, even if it was copying a move from DC’s recent playbook of releasing weekly series for an entire year at a time. This was different – focusing all of the resources of the entire line of spider-books on a single title meant Spidey’s adventures could move quickly and keep fans regularly sated while being easy to follow.
