SamyMerchi wrote:Do any of you think that such a recent TASM volume might (even slightly) reduce the chances of MTU? After all X-Men held back Uncanny for years, so by the logic of two X-Men books having to compete for an annual slot, wouldn't two Spider-Man series have to also compete for an annual slot? I'm not asking for whether or not you guys think TASM/MTU *should* rotate, but rather I'm asking, doesn't Cory's rotation of X-Men/Uncanny seem to indicate the kind of logic where TASM/MTU would rotate?

It's the 70s equivalent of the wobbly Human Torch title from the 60s. I think the horror titles were what defined Marvel in the early 70s. That said, you wouldn't really want to do Tomb of Dracula since he's covered in the Omniboo. So what's left?

It is a title that should be considered for masterworking on a regular (two year cycle?) basis. Many other '70's titles fall into the same category as far as having periods of good and not so good storytelling.

In Giant-Size Spider-Man, Spidey and the guest star share cover billing, as in MTU. Giant-Size Super-Heroes really just stars Spidey; Morbius and Man-Wolf are the antagonists. It'd go better in a Spider-Man Masterworks, in my opinion.
