The Amazing Spider-Man: The Complete Alien Costume Saga, Book One

When Spider-Man returns from the Secret Wars with a snazzy new black suit, he's faster, stronger and has an unending inbuilt supply of webbing! All the better for tussling with foes such as the Rose, Black Fox, Red Ghost, Jack O'Lantern, Puma and the Blob! Not only that, but he's dressed to impress the Black Cat too, much to Mary Jane's dismay. But there's something about Peter that's not quite right. Curse that ol' Parker luck, the black costume just happens to be a hungry alien symbiote...and it's grown very attached to him! Savor a chronological retelling of Spider-Man's epic wardrobe malfunction, told across the three Spider-titles of the era!Collecting : AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (1963) #252-258; MARVEL TEAM-UP (1972) #141-145, ANNUAL #7; PETER PARKER, THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN (1976) #90-95Written by Roger Stern, Tom DeFalco, Jim Owsley, Dave Michelinie, Cary Burkett, Tony Isabella, Louise Simonson and Al MilgromArt by Ron Frenz, Brett Breeding, Rick Leonardi, Bill Anderson, Joe Rubinstein, Greg LaRocque, Mike Esposito, Paul Neary, Sam De La Rosa, Al Milgrom and Jim MooneyCover by Ron Frenz & Klaus Janson
