I just don’t find this style of story telling engaging, there’s so little time spent on Peter’s life that the pages of him out of costume feel forced or as brief reminders that he’s suppose to have a life (those incidents get better in the Wein issues with newspaper office drama), but I’m just not engage. Also, Peter and Spider-Man kind of a jerk, I can read an issue but in left not really recalling what it is I just read. Leaves me wanting to abandon my goal of reading all of Amazing Spider-Man.

All of Gerry Conway’s issues are on par with prior installments, but on #151 there’s a new writer—Len Wein. I wish I wasn’t so down on the guy but something feels off with his Spider-Man and the stories themselves and it really dragged out those last ten or so issues for me.
