The series that cemented Spider-Man's position at the centre of the Marvel Universe. Each issue of Marvel Team-Up pairs the wall-crawler with a different hero: Thor, the X-Men, Human Torch, Daredevil, Iron Fist: in self-contained adventures that explore every corner of the 1970s Marvel world.

Web of Spider-Man Omnibus Vol. 2 captures Peter Parker in a street-level, late-1980s Spider-Man lane where the web of supporting titles matters as much as the flagship series. The book brings together gang pressure, symbiote fallout, Daily Bugle texture and crossover connective tissue without reducing the era to one famous villain.

Spider-Man's third monthly title arrives in omnibus format. Louise Simonson and Greg LaRocque built a series with its own distinct identity that complemented Amazing Spider-Man and Spectacular Spider-Man in the mid-1980s: a tighter, more personal book that gave writers room to explore corners of Peter Parker's world the main titles couldn't reach.

Spider-Man Vs. Venom Omnibus gathers the rivalry between Peter Parker, Eddie Brock and the symbiote legacy as it spreads through Spider-Man and Venom stories. The focus is the black-suit fallout, Venom's early threat, Carnage-era escalation and the way the conflict turns personal instead of simply monstrous.

Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man Omnibus Vol. 1 collects the companion series that lets Spider-Man stay closer to campus life, street-level trouble and the supporting cast around Peter. Bill Mantlo, Gerry Conway and Sal Buscema use the title to explore friendships, smaller villains and the parts of Peter's world that do not always fit inside Amazing Spider-Man.

Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus Vol. 6 continues Peter Parker's late Bronze Age years, with Marv Wolfman, Gerry Conway and Keith Pollard carrying the series through new pressures and new relationships. The arrival of Black Cat gives the run a different kind of danger: flirtation, theft, obsession and trust all tangled together.

Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus Vol. 5 continues Peter Parker's Bronze Age stretch after the first Clone Saga, with Gerry Conway, Roy Thomas and Ross Andru shaping a Spider-Man who feels older, more socially rooted and increasingly defined by relationships. Mary Jane, Aunt May, the Daily Bugle and a changing Marvel New York give the run its texture.

Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus Vol. 4 captures the early Bronze Age shift, with Gerry Conway, Gil Kane and Ross Andru pushing Peter Parker through heavier consequences. The Punisher, the Jackal and the first Clone Saga give the run a sharper edge after the shocks that changed Peter's life.
