Agreed.

People who say the whole clone-saga was crap obviously never read the Dezago/Wieringo 'Sensational' run. I would argue it's among the most neglected and underrated Spidey runs out there. They worked so fluidly together and brought a real sense of fun to the title (but they could be serious when needed also). The Looter and Swarm Spider-Ben stories were just fun classics that hold up even today. And the clone-phobes can rest assured there's no heavy clone mythology in them either. So pick up the back issues because they're excellent fun reads.

Their run post-clone saga is also fun and so was the more recent Peter David/Ringo 'Friendly' run, but Dezago/Ringo's early Spider-Ben stuff holds a special place in my heart. :hrt:

As an aside, both Ringo and Dezago are (were in Ringo's case sadly) incredibly nice individuals. When I was a kid I contacted both through e-mail with dumb questions about years-old subplots and how to become a professional and their answers were quick, warm, detailed and thoughtful.

Another really good artist. R.I.P, Jim Mooney.
 
Spidey (on this cover) always reminded me of Steve Ditko's Spidey.

Definitely an homage to Mr. Ditko. :) :up:
Methinks it's a good blend of both Ditko & Romita sr:up:
