It includes fifteen stories, as well as introductions from both editors and an appendix which places each story in the comics chronology. This is a second anthology of prose Spider-Man short fiction from Byron Preiss it appeared in 1997, three years after The Ultimate Spider-Man, which credited Lee alone as editor. ![]()
