How did Marvel come up with #234 for the Spider-Man book?
Spider-Man Vol 2 (2016 - 2017): 21 issues
Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man (2014 - 2015): 12 issues
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man Vol 2 (2011 - 2013): 28 issues
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man Vol 1 (2009 - 2010): 15 issues
Ultimate Spider-Man (2000 - 2009): 160 issues
My calculator says 236!

I'm pretty sure it has to do with the Legacy renumbering where Marvel took count of a number of books and used them for a titles renumbering. I'm presuming in this case it's for Ultimate Spider-man and if something is slightly off like this it might be because of Annuals, crossover character focused books, or whoever was in-charge missed a couple books, and we know that happened to a few titles considering how many comics are out and about.

Ok so Ultimate Spider-Man went from Issue 1 to 133. It then turned into Ultimate Comics Spider-Man for 15 issues, and then they reverted it back to Ultimate Spider-Man's original numbering.
So it's actually 160+28+12+21=221.

I actually would have thought they would have used the original Spider-man run, started by Todd McFarlane in that total. Which I don't know what the issue numbers are there.

They’re only using the issues that Bendis has written
Yeah, Miles's count is based on Ultimate Spider-Man, not the 90s adjectiveless Spider-Man. Ultimate Comics Spider-Man vol 2 ended on issue 200. So it's 200 + 12 + 21 = 233.
Thanks y'all :)
It turns out they are counting all Miles Morales and Ultimate Spider-Man titles, including one special and two miniseries, but not the Three annuals.
Spider-Man Vol 2 #1-21 (2016 - 2017) 21 issues
Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man #1-12 (2014 - 2015) 12 issues
Ultimate Spider-Man Vol 1 #200 (2014) 1 issue
Cataclysm: Ultimate Spider-Man #1-3 (2014) 3 issues
Spider-Men #1-5 (2012) 5 issues
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man Vol 2 #1-29 (2011 - 2013) 29 issues
Ultimate Spider-Man Vol 1 #150-160 (2011) 11 issues
Ultimatum: Spider-Man Requiem #1-2 (2009) 2 issues
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #1-15 (2009 - 2010) 15 issues
Ultimate Spider-Man Super Special #1 (2002) 1 issue
Ultimate Spider-Man Vol 1 #1-133 (2000 - 2009) 133 issues
= 233
Thanks for putting me on the right track ;)
No, that's still not quite right. They counted Ultimate Six.

Hm, why didn't Marvel release all those lists right away?
Thanks! :)
