    Amazing choices! I think I would have gone:

    5. Spider-Man vs. Wolverine #1
    4. Secret Wars #8
    3. Web of Spider-Man #32
    2. Spectacular Spider-Man #101
    1. Amazing Spider-Man #238

    The top two are really, really close for me, and I could easily imagine flipping them. But a GREAT list!

    Ah Amazing Spider-man #260!! I remeber this 12-year old comic fan trying to duplicate that cover countless times. My favorite Spider-man artist was always the underrated and underappreciated Ron Frenz.
