Written by STAN LEE Penciled by JOHN ROMITA with DON HECK Cover by JOHN ROMITA You just hit the jackpot, tiger! The MARVEL MASTERWORKS bring you another set of classic tales featuring world's most amazing super hero-the Amazing Spider-Man. With Stan Lee and John Romita bringing story after story of unmatched drama and adventure, it's Spidey at his very best! It begins with the first appearance of the bulldozer on two legs, the Rhino, and if he can't turn Spidey into an endangered species, then perhaps an out-of-control, outer-space powered Col.

The action keeps pumping with Spidey's first meeting with the Avengers (hint, it doesn't go well), the Shocker, the return of the Lizard, Kraven the Hunter, and the debut of an all-new Vulture and the Kingpin! But the true heart of the story is in the tale of young Peter Parker finding his way in the world. He finds new independence as he gets his own pad with pal Harry Osborn, courts Gwen Stacy, and beholds one of comics' most unforgettable entrances, a certain Miss Mary Jane Watson. Of course, for poor Spidey there's just as many pitfalls as perigees, and rarely has Spidey had it worse than in Spider-Man No More!

After leaving their home in San Francisco and relocating to the floating island of Utopia, the X-Men finally thought they were safe. But though they were free from the persecution of Norman Osborn's corrupt peacekeeping organization H.A.M.M.E.R., the mutants would have very little time to build their new nation before finding themselves under attack once again. A murderous foe from the X-Men's past, Emplate is not simply content to torment his enemies: He must feast on their mutant bone marrow to survive. After catching the X-Men by surprise and attacking them in their new home, the vampiric mutant kidnapped one of the team's students, the mutant known as Bling! Now, with Bling! held captive in Emplate's own twisted dimension, the X-Men will go to any lengths to save the young mutant before the villain devours her. As the team's scientists struggle to find a way to breach the dimensional rift, Rogue steps forward with a plan to make her way into Emplate's dark home. But will she be quick enough to save Bling! and return her to Utopia? Collecting X-MEN: LEGACY #228-230 and X-MEN LEGACY ANNUAL. 112 pages. /Rated A
