Summary: iT plays havoic with Spider-Man continunity
Review: These are all supposed to be stories that take place at various points in Spidey's career as a hero, but it's all so much to place within the context of the comic. Spidey's past adventures were very well written from Stan Lee and Steve Didko to more recent writers like David Michelinie, and to say that these stories take place between this issue of the comic or that issue, is too difficult to keep track of all of it. Maybe they can get away with this with the X-Men, but not Spider-Man. No more untold tales from the past, let's focus on the present.

Summary: DREWSHI Rules!
Review: This edition features the first of what will be a long list of stories written by John S. Drew. Watch for his name in the future. He writes as though he's been writing the characters of Aunt May and Peter Parker all his life! His story is called "Moving Day," and it is the best in the collection.

Summary: what a fantastic anthology!
Review: This great anthology covers most of Spidey's career. The best story is "The Stalking of John Doe" by Adam-Troy Castro, which is one of the best Spider-Man stories ever written anywhere. You should buy this book just so you can read this story. Also really really good are the stories are by Tom DeFalco (who captures the early Spidey perfectly), Christopher Golden & Jose R. Nieto (great look at the Spidey/Torch relationship), John Garcia & Pierce Askegren (just a fun adventure story), Michael Jan Friedman (killer ending!), Ann Nocenti (deals with issues the comics _never_ deal with), Ken Grobe & Steven A. Roman (hilarious!), and Keith R.A. DeCandido (best Doc Ock story _ever_). The other stories are OK, too -- the only ones that really stink are Danny Fingeroth's stupid "The Doctor's Dilemma" and Glenn Greenberg's overwritten "Poison in the Soul."

Summary: ONE OF THE BEST
Review: THIS WAS A ONE OF A KIND BOOK. THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS, MARVEL PUTS OUT A GREAT BOOK, & THEN "BAM", GOES & CANCELLS IT TO PUT OUT SOMETHING WORSE. PEOPLE WOULD RATHER SEE SPIDEYS UNTOLD ADVENTURES THAN HIM TEAM UP WITH HAS BEENS EVERY MONTH, ESPECIALLY AT AN INCREASED COST. UNTOLD COSTS .99 YET MARVEL TEAM UP COSTS 1.99, WHY IS THAT?
