I agree wholeheartedly. I'd been away from the Spider-titles for quite
some time, even Roger Stern couldn't inspire me to read AMAZING SPIDER-
MAN. I'd been hearing good things about Peter David from Don Thompson's
reviews in CBG, and I picked up the first installment of "The Death of
Jean DeWolf" in PETER PARKER #107. Since then, I've been buying any
Spider-Man (AMAZING, SPECTACULAR, or WEB) with Peter David writing it.
He's not up in the super-heavy class with Moore, Baron, Miller, and
Hernandez (among others), but the guy is *good*.
