Amazing Spider-Man No More? And a Bookend to the Chase

By Mark Ginocchio

October 18, 2012Spider News4 Comments

I know how ridiculously absent I’ve been with my posting lately but given the recent turn of events related to the subject of my chase, Amazing Spider-Man, I thought it was time for me to make a reappearance. Truthfully, I’ve been so out of the loop with my comic

New Issues: Amazing Spider-Man #691

By Mark Ginocchio

September 8, 2012New Issues3 Comments

As I mentioned in my last post, I’m woefully behind in talking about Marvel’s most recent Spider-Man-relevant content, so in an effort to get back on track, I’m going to to attempt to get some posts out in rapid-fire succession over the next week or so, starting with my

Thoughts on Rick Remender and Venom

By Mark Ginocchio

September 6, 2012Spidey Spin OffsNo comments

I know I’m hardly writing enough lately to dedicate one entire post to non-ASM comic, but given my adoration for what Rick Remender accomplished during his run on Venom, which recently ended at issue #22, I thought it was necessary to dedicate some internet space to the topic. What

New Issues: Amazing Spider-Man #688-690

By Mark Ginocchio

August 13, 2012New Issues2 Comments

Putting aside the absolute co-inky-dink that Marvel would choose to spotlight the Lizard in an Amazing Spider-Man story-arc at the same time that a brand-new Spider-Man movie featuring the Lizard was in theaters (which I still haven’t seen yet, unfortunately), I was actually looking forward to the “No Turning

Remembrance of Comics Past: Amazing Spider-Man #365

By Mark Ginocchio

August 8, 2012Remembrance of Comics Past4 Comments

August 2012 is officially the 50th Anniversary mark for the birth of my favorite comic book character, Spider-Man. In a perfect world, I would have planned something more celebratory for Chasing Amazing this month, but alas, that’s not in the cards. At the very least, let me dedicate my

First Impressions of Spider-Men

By Mark Ginocchio

July 27, 2012Spidey Spin Offs, Ultimate Spider-ManNo comments

Similar to last summer when Spider Island and all of its accompanying spin-offs inevitably told the better story with far less fanfare than Marvel’s “mega” event crossover Fear Itself, this year, the Spidey-focused mini-series Spider-Men seems to be far more satisfying than Marvel’s throw everyone into a pot and

Remembrance of Comics Past: Amazing Spider-Man #147

By Mark Ginocchio

July 24, 2012Remembrance of Comics PastNo comments

Looking back at when I was considerably younger and how I interpreted “value” is a fascinating exercise. I’ve mentioned in past posts that my first true hobby was collecting baseball cards. While opening packs upon packs of 1987 and 1988 Topps and Donruss, I remember separating out the cards

New Issues: Ends of the Earth – the Next Spider Island or Just Another Comic Book?

By Mark Ginocchio

July 12, 2012New Issues2 Comments

In any form of entertainment, hype is such a dangerous thing because so little in this world ever lives up to the expectations we tend to build when we’re initially excited about something. Sadly, that’s the first and most sincere reaction I can conjure up regarding the conclusion of

New Issues: Amazing Spider-Man Annual #39

By Mark Ginocchio

June 27, 2012New Issues1 Comment

Long-time readers of Chasing Amazing are well aware of my love-hate relationship with Annual issues. Sure, Marvel has long used Amazing Spider-Man Annuals to introduce key events and storylines – the first appearance of the Sinister Six, Spidey trying to join the Avengers, the origin of his parents and

Remembrance of Comics Past: Amazing Spider-Man #90

By Mark Ginocchio

June 19, 2012Remembrance of Comics Past1 Comment

At different points in my life, I’ve often contemplated if I was born in the right year. That’s because my tastes in pop culture have never really been in-tune with the rest of my generation. Sure the Beatles Anthology made the Fab Four a phenomena (again) with some of
