Well, here it is.... the begining of the CountDown Game 4.

As some of you may know, I did this for Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2 & Spider-Man 3. So in keeping up with tradition, I'll be doing this for Spider-Man 4.

With all due respect, this game was originally started by fellow Canuck & Hype user named Reader, who started the first one 441 days left til Spidey 1. Unfortunately, he stopped (or got lazy) with 347 days left. So I carried on for him and I've been doing it since (a little Hype history for you)

It's now 603 days until Spider-Man 4, so I'll be posting the covers and credits of each regular continuity Spider-Man comics begining with Amazing Spider-Man #603 and working my way down to issue #1 every day, adding on the other Spidey titles along the way. As I've stated, I've done this for all three Spidey movies and it was fun, so hopefully, we can enjoy the ride yet again for a fourth time.

This thread helped the time go by quickly while waiting for the movie, so maybe it'll do it again.

I will not be including, like last time, mini-series nor Ultimate Spider-Man.

Special thanks this time will include the Hype's very popular Donald Thomas, who wanted me to use his covers (actually, he begged and there was a cash transaction involved ), as well as Eric Gillette of samruby fame....

I'm gonna use both their sites (Mostly Donald's... Eric's will be for research, so give their sites a visit...

Finally, there's always a joker or two who tries to post the covers instead of me... if you guys do this, your posts will be deleted and you will be given warnings... this is my thread for your enjoyment... I'm the guy that posts the covers, so please let me do it...I had clonesy do it for 2 weeks back in 2006 when I was in the Caribbeans, but I gave him permission (thanks again VC )

Enjoy the viewing...

Cheers...

Mike

It wasn't that big page-wise (the 'Official Fans of Reilly' thread just below is a hundred pages longer), but I guess all the hundreds of cover jpegs used up a lot of memory.

 

[Chris Wallace]

That's what I figured.

Yeah, it's a shame they couldn't have made an exception here. I mean, this thread will have a definite ending in a couple of months.

Amazing Spider-Man #100

3 really good 100's!

 

[Themanofbat]

It's weird to think that there have only been 4 #100's in over 48 years of Spidey comics & titles...

5 to me, even if the Peter Parker: Spider-Man wasn't counted as #100

Donald,

None of your Webs from 81 to 99 are scanned, as well as PP:Spider-Man #1 (the main cover and the Sunburst variant)

Let me know when it's fixed and I'll change them...
