Amazing Spider-man #200

Amazing #200 (w/ Wolfman; art Pollard & Mooney)

Nice cover on the double-sized anniversary issue by John Romita.

An interesting premise that Pete has lost his spider-man powers and has to face Uncle Ben's killer from Amazing Fantasy #15. I thought that it was a bit of a patchy issue in terms of script and art - but that's not unusual for double-sized issues. Wolfman tries hard to link the events from the origin story to the final confrontation between Pete and the Burglar and the final resolution seemed fairly logical and plausible.

I'd give this issue 6/10.

Currently watching "The State Within" which was on BBC One on the lead up to Christmas. I've watched 2 episodes out of 6 and will comment on it when I've seen them all.
