More Wise Cracks Than You Can Swing A Web At [Posted on 2005-05-16]
Spider-Man is one of my favorite comic superheros. I loved the movie and i loved the soundtrack and i definatley loved the book. the action and comedy of spider-man never stops. You gotta read it.



If you Liked This Book Read Spider-Man 2 & All The comics!

It's-a web-swingin' !! [Posted on 2005-11-27]
The movie is exceptionally good - and even more so this novelization of the film by Peter David at some respect would even seem quite much better, sorta like reminding you the advantage of written format's merits and appeal to tell a story better than any other web-dusty format can.

I've first encountered a work by David from the WEB OF SPIDERMAN comic (mainly a stand-alone spidey story series which MARVEL started publication back in '85 or '86), in particular issue number 13 - with the story titled 'Point Of View', and from that point on I knew P. David is one of the most unsung outstanding writers out there not only in the comic book field - nearly to the level of comicbook writer vet Roy Thomas. Although I've commented that the movie's storyline would've been perfect if they haven't skipped some elements from the comics' plotline from where they were based from- on my review for the film - this noveliazation stands supremely quite alright.

However, it so happens that other reviews for this movie-tie-in book states the same thing about being a clever work from P. David, which i got from a MARVEL paperback boxed set with movie tie-ins for HULK (also rendered by Peter David - and the one I'm currently reading right now along with David's novelization for the sequel SPIDERMAN 2) and X-MEN 2, which is written by Chris Clearmont, who's works in comics I am quite familliar and am fond of, but at this point- the former writers for the first XMEN movie tie-in seems to've done a better job.

Going back to this work of Peter David for the Spidey movie -- it's just as good as reading 'em Harry Potter books by J.K. Rowling. Twas one of the best re-renditions ever portrayed not only for the SPIDERMAN mythos that I have encountered , but for the overall conundrum of works for adaptations as well.

I loved every bit. [Posted on 2006-04-16]
It begins with an orphan named Peter Parker, raised by his beloved Aunt May and Uncle Ben in Queens, New York. A quiet student, he works diligently at his studies and pines for the beautiful Mary-Jane Watson. But this ordinary teenage boy is about to have his life turned upside down, when he is bitten by a genetically altered spider. Suddenly, he finds himself in possesion of spectacular powers. He is now, and forever Spider-Man!

Follow Spider-Man's action-packed journey from his struggle to harness the extraodinary gifts that will prove to be both blessing and curse, to his fight to save innocent lives while the media tear him to pieces. It all leads to the dramatic battle high above the city streets, where the webslinger faces his archnemesis, the madman known as the Green Goblin. While the city watches breathlessly, Spider-Man confronts the greatest challenge, and the Goblin puts Peter Parker's vow to fight crime to the ultimate test.

I love the movie, I'm sure I'll love the to. I read slow. This starts out in Queens. About the web-slinging before he was.

Peter David brings the movie to life [Posted on 2008-08-28]
Peter David, a veteran comic book writer, has brought the movie to life. If you like the movie, you'll like the book too. There isn't too much that's been added or tweaked from the movie storyline, but if there were it wouldn't be the movie adaptation anymore, it would be a different Spider-Man novel.

If you like the movie or the character, you should be happy with this one.
