The run that made Roger Stern and John Romita Jr. famous starts here!One of the greatest eras in Spider-Man history begins in this Amazing Epic Collection! Roger Stern and John Romita Jr. joined the Spidey-creator hall of fame with their run, taking the web- spinner to new heights while recapturing the compelling tone and character-driven focus that made Spider-Man world famous. Together they brought classic villains like the Vulture to the fore, explored a disturbing fate for the Tarantula, told the definitive Juggernaut tale and made J. Jonah Jameson an even bigger pain that ever before. Arguably their paramount achievement was introducing the thrilling mystery of the Hobgoblin, showing in these pages how he’s one of the most threatening villains Spider-Man would ever face. All this and the first appearance of Monica Rambeau, A.K.A. Captain Marvel!COLLECTING: Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #224-241, Amazing Spider-Man Annual (1964) #16Written by Roger Stern With Jan Strnad & Bill MantloPenciled by John Romita Jr. With Rick Leonardi & Bob Hall

More classic team-ups starring the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing from the Fantastic Four!For sixty years and counting, the Thing has been one of Marvel’s most beloved icons! The exploits of the Fantastic Four’s ever-lovin’ blue-eyed Thing have always been defined by finding the biggest bad guy available and walloping the heck out of him. But the stories that open the penultimate MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE MASTERWORKS take a more urgent tone as the Thing races to find anyone and everyone who can save his compatriot Giant-Man from the ravages of cancer. It’s a moving saga that reveals the heart of the FF’s gruffest member. The Thing will also give you a dose of the action you crave, battling micro-sized gladiators alongside Ant-Man, slinging suds (and knuckles) with Sandman and even seeing if he can help Machine Man and Jocasta put a dent in Ultron’s adamantium exterior!COLLECTING: MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE (1974) #83-93
