Besides the well-written arcs and great development for the character, something I love about Ultimate Spider Man was the pacing of the stories and how Bendis took the time to establish the characters instead rushing to the super hero stuff. Take the first arc for exemple: While in the Stan Lee/Steve Ditko took just one issue to tell Spider Man origin, Bendis took 6 issues, however they all work not just to focus on Peter origin but also on his personality and his relationships and dynamic with other character, specially Uncle Ben, who got much interactions, making his death much more impacful and meaningful.

I still recall buying the very first issue back in 2002 (yeah the comics came out late in the UK), it was around the same time the 2002 film was pretty much a big thing and I got hooked on Ultimate Spider-Man after reading that entire first issue and would often had to wait patiently for the next issue. So years later even though I don't collect comics anymore I still recall having a blast reading the Ultimate series and would often go back to reading them from time to time and still love reading them to this day.

From what I've heard, Ultimate is one of the greats when it comes to Spider-Man stories as well as peak Bendis writing. The only Bendis stuff I've read was his Guardians of the Galaxy run, which was okay but plagued with event tie-ins. Hopefully whenever I get around to Ultimate Spider-Man it's a lot more enjoyable.

Ultimate Spidey holds a special place in my heart as well. I remember reading these books over and over when I would be out to sea or deployed during my time in the Navy. I still go back and read the whole run once in a while and I agree that the first year or so stands above the rest of it. I've seen a lot of hate for Bendis' writing style but I was a big fan of his and still am. It isn't too much dialouge, it's character development. And Bagley is one of the all time great Spidey artists. In my opinion, the Mount Rushmore of Spidey artists are Ditko, Romita Sr., Mcfarlane and Bagley. Watching your video just reminds me that it's time to dive back into this series again. Thanks, Owen.

Really glad that they are re-releasing the whole run in 35 volumes. People nowadays seek for an adult Peter Parker and I can understand that . Not only did Superior Spiderman and SM Life Story show us how it could look like but even after 8 Hollywood movies, we only get the „teenager“ version. Nonetheless, Ultimate SM might be one of the most relatable and exciting stories of all time - right from the origins to the confession and the Sinister Six. I feel like every character, side or main cast, has his moment and the right to exist. Compared to the current Spiderman run, it looks exactly like some MCU or Star Wars shows where they just try to put as many characters into the story as they can with barely any logic (Misty Knight, Colleen Wing etc.)

Another excellent video! Ultimate Spider-man was definitely the series that got me into comics as well and one of the only Ultimate series that still really holds up. It is definitely my favorite take on Spider-man, with the only run coming close being Superior Spider-man for completely different reasons, and probably my favorite comic series of all time. If I had any criticisms I would say that I wish the Ultimate version of Eddie Brock was less of an outright scumbag and I wish the artwork for Ultimate Six was better, but these are small nitpicks. Also, major props to Bendis to creating a great version of the Clone saga!

I always loved Spider-Man, but I owe the Ultimate Spider-Man comics (since I was already familiar with this incarnation thanks to the 2005 game) as being my reintroduction to the character alongside TASM1 back in 2012 when I stopped following the character after the Spectacular cartoon's cancellation. This series redefined and resparked my love for the character, getting me to truly appreciate how important Peter Parker is (since I usually just cared about the Spidey stuff as a kid), and since my high school library had the entire Bendis and Bagley portion of the run, I read them all during my high school years. While there's some stuff that I've come to not like as much as I did when I first read and some stuff that works better when you're a teenager, I'd still highly recommend Ultimate Spider-Man to someone who wants to read Spidey comics.

I had a very similar experience with Ultimate Spider-man some 20 years ago. It was the first ongoing series I invested myself in, I loved the cartoons and before the movies I was looking for new media involving my favourite heroes. When I heard about a fresh start about a modern day Spider-man, I was instantly intrigued. I mean rebooting a hero using today's standard and mentality was at the time very radical, especially with one of the very biggest, and arguably, greatest hero of all time. My love faded when I had to start using my money for other resources but I still have my collection, and I have nothing but found memories of rereading each book over and over and over. Truly one of the very best comic runs ever. You have immaculate taste.

Storytime: Much like you, I was into superheroes since I was little. The first movie my dad took me to see was Batman and Robin (I was too young to remember, but my dad talks about it like it gives him 'Nam flashbacks). I was weaned on superhero shows from Spider-Man to the DCAU and beyond. I had read the occasional comic, like I remember specifically an issue of a youth-oriented Spidey comic that retold Doc Ock's origin and had Human Torch. But, much like you, Ultimate Spider-Man was my true gateway. My 11th birthday, 2006, I got the Ultimate Spider-Man game used from Gamestop then that same night, my grandpa gave me the trade of the Ultimate Venom arc, which both I and my sibling practically memorized. Throughout middle school, I was pretty fully a member of the Merry Marvel Marching Society (I was one of those who thought Superman was boring), then in high school I became more into DC. Over the last couple years, though, I've found myself gravitating back into Marvel to the point where I think I prefer it. But through it all, I trace it back to Ultimate Spider-Man. Even with it's problems, like Bagley's inability to draw more than one face, or the fact that they occasionally drop an r-slur, or that Peter is often characterized as a bit of a prick, I can't help but call it my favorite comic of all time.

Beautiful video Owen, it truly feels it really influenced in your personal life (as to many that came from that generation on that time) and as always for Marvel Comics, it always delivered with Spider-Man and this fresh take with the Ultimate universe, was truly something else. Me that I was born in 1984, I managed to read this fresh take and I loved it as much as the 617 stories, because it was a fresh take with the same teachings and growth that many of us readers had faced thru while growing up. And no matter what Spider-Man and Ultimate Spider-Man's respective legacies will always endure no matter what generation comes from. As for me, I started reading the Ultimate universe with The Ultimates and Ultimate X-Men, the latter with depth because I always loved the X-Men and specially (despite being a general cliche for anybody apparently): Wolverine. And as I was already finishing college, I always found the same teoublesome life that Ultimate Logan had, I was let down by society and being pushed being a bad-resentful-boy until, I got along with the right people in order for me to become a better man again and not just an animal.

i started with a "giant sized" annual of both spiderman, and the fantastic four, not ultimate, but classic golden/silver age stories, i didnt find ultimates till i was in middle school or so, and i was hooked from the jump, it really is what made me fall in love with comics, it really did feel like a movie, only later did i learn it kind of was their original movie idea, just made in comic form, to pitch the idea. hence the likness to hollywood celebrities of the time.

I liked superheroes and I LOVED spidey. But Ultimate Spider-Man made me a comic book fan. Favorite comic book run and interpretation of Peter Parker of all time.

Love this video! Ultimate Spider Man is the first comic I ever read and it's a very similar situation to yourself. I spent 2 years rebuilding the collection from beginning to end, a few years back. Now I'm looking to upgrade to the omnibus versions. To go with the Miles Morales Omnibus!

ultimate is so hated by the majority of spidey “fans” but he’s my personal favorite iteration of the character. He’s why i started reading Spidey comics and even introduced into Miles, my top 3 fav spider-people always wished they adapted the 1610 Spidey more accurately into the MCU, especially since both versions are obviously aiming to be modern for the times they’re in to me, what makes the character so unique is that Spider-Man isn’t a “man”. It’s a kid in spandex trying to do what’s right. In fact that’s what made him special initially, Spidey was one of, if not the first kid superhero to NOT be a sidekick. Spider-Man (IMO) is best when he’s just a kid balancing work, school and his superhero life. Not everyone can relate to being an adult, but everyone knows what it’s like to be a kid, which is where spidey shines best imo. I would’ve loved to see 1610 grow up into a young man, but i love the stories we got with him as a teenager

Reading my brothers mountain of ultimate spider-man single issues is the reason i got into comics. That and watching Smallville.

This book means so much to me. Its my favorite comic ever, and I truly believe it changed my life for the better. I'm glad that there's someone else that loves it as much as I do
