Is there a definitive list of ASM & UXM "Key issues" on the internet somewhere?

Ultimate Spider-Man:

1 - 1st U. S-M

33 - 1st U. Venom

50 - 1st U. Black Cat

60 or 61 - 1st U. Carnage

61 - 1st U. Ben Riley

63 - Death Gwen Stacy

91 - 1st U. Deadpool

160 - Death

Cool list, but I think he was asking about Amazing Spider-man and Uncanny X-Men. :grin:

Seriously guys?

 

is there an on-line list of the "Must Own" issues of The Amazing Spider-Man and The Uncanny X-Men?

 

ASM 1

X-MEN 1

X-MEN 94

ASM 129

 

may want to add Secret Wars #8

 

those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head ;)

I'm sure there are multiple lists around somewhere... they just aren't the same. And do you want "must own" issues or keys?

ASM

AF15,1-100 121,122,129,135, (161/162 cool NIGHTCRAWLER issues!) 194,238,239,252,265, 298-328, 361,362,363,365,430,431, 1 Sunburst, 19-21 larsen venom,25, 36, 51,52 MJ, 569 venom variant, (all new ways to die issues), 601,606,607,612 and 620 deadpool 612 black cat variant, 654.1, 697-700,

 

I missed a few such as venom symbiote variant issue, the 666 store variants and first Iron Spider but cant recall numbers off hand.

 

Outside of ASM, there are a handful of first appearances such as Cloak and Dagger and Scarlet Spider in WOS and PPSS.

 

ASM and X-men probably have the best chunk of keys and good reads out of all the titles..

 

my X-men list is equally huge, most have been mentioned but there is also X-men annual 14, 244, 222 (I noticed someone mentioned 1st Sinister!! 222 is also a great issue with classic cover. both good read and great covers there!) X-men 50 is an awesome Steranko cover. so many classics..

 

oh dont forget the good modern reads such as 366/367 (Apocalypse 12),

390 is such an emotional and compelling story as well a must have for true readers and collectors (even if the collectors dont know it yet!)

 

I can go on and on about good x-men storylines/keys but you really cant go wrong with the entire ASM 1-700 run and X-men 1-544

 

In my opinion the 2 greatest runs in the history of comics other than Batman 1-712+n52!!

 

get em all!!!

 

the only unfortunate thing is that for a number of issues in the mid 90's you need companion books to read the whole series. such as WoS or X-factor for Xtinction agenda etc..

 

as for movie announcements,, ASM and X-men fans could care less.. these books will outlast any movie hype..
