Amazing Spider-Talk: A Spider-Man Podcast

Before the Spider-Verse there was just one Peter Parker and one Spider-Man, born of one spider. But then, someone asked “What If…” and the possibilities for the character became endless. These short stories planted the seeds for the Spider-Verse and eventually killed off all of Peter’s supporting cast, as well as launched the careers of some incredible Spider-talent! This episode was edited by Rick Coste, with production support from Andy Myers. Our artwork comes handcrafted by artists Ron Frenz, Sal Buscema, and Ray Sumser.

Do you know a cha-cha from a waltz? Certainly, the Marvel editorial offices of the early ’80s did! Without any consistent artist on the various Spider-Man titles and a constantly changing stable of editors and writers, the Spider-Man books and Marvel Comics were experiencing a creative revolution in the early ’80s. This moment would launch the careers of Jim Shooter, Frank Miller, Roger Stern, and John Romita Jr. (to name a few), as well as our guest Spider-Editor Danny Fingeroth who will help us recount what it was like to be at Marvel at the time!

THE FIRST, WORST SPIDER-MAN COMICS? With the hasty exit of Marv Wolfman as the writer of Amazing Spider-Man, Marvel had to scramble to find a replacement. So, they turned to another legendary writer in the Spider-Office: Denny O’Neil. Famous for his historic runs on Green Lantern/Green Arrow and Batman, Denny’s run of Amazing Spider-Man books are probably the most overlooked, under-printed, and forgotten issues in Spidey’s 60-year publishing history. On this week’s show, Dan and Mark will explore why it is that Denny O’Neil’s run represents Spidey’s true “Lost Years”! This episode was edited by Rick Coste, with production support from Andy Myers.
