Amazing Spider-Man Ultimate Collection Book 1

For anybody who is interested in reading about Spider-Man but is daunted by the decision of where to start this is a great starting point.  The Clone Saga is a couple of years behind us at this point plus this is the first in a series of collections that showcase J. Michael Straczynski's run on the character.  I have to say this volume was quite well done it takes the Spider-Man mythos that you think you know & adds to it in a unique way.  The introduction of Morlun is interesting I wish there had been more of a backstory to his character.  This collection also features the 9/11 issue that came out in November of 2001 to showcase how the Marvel Universe was effected by the World Trade Center tragedy.  Overall I like where J.M.S's Spider-Man run is headed, I already know the ending so that may make me a little biased but more on that when we get there.
