Sensational Spider-Man #8 The Usual Suspects was a great read and one of my favorite single issues. There are a couple high lights. The first for me is when Spidey comes to know that the villains everyone thinks are committing the crimes are not the ones doing it because the crimes were one and done and not a spree.
Also when Spidey is webbed up and Looter explains that he "Looted the Looters." to commit the crimes to raise money to buy the meteor and he asks The looter if he was such a great big thief why didnt he just steal the meteor in the first place. The Looters response is classic
"I never thought of that." When I read that I died laughing.
The Looter has a couple I never thought of that moments in Spidey history. The above example but first was in Marvel Team up when his cell mate asked him if he had all this power why he didnt just use it to break out of jail. And The Looter of course
"It never occurred to me."[/QUOTE]
Yes, it’s a great issue. I also love the Swarm 2-parter that followed it. Dezago and Wieringo’s Sensational run doesn’t get enough love imo. It was all great, but they especially shined when writing Ben for some reason. Was so gutted when ‘Ringo passed.

I should have just written this. So much more simpler. Those are all my favorites too.

I always think about this scene every time I read Spider's Shadow, seeing as how the reason she goes over to his apartment in the beginning is to apologize to him for this.

Funny, I literally just re-read The Night Gwen Stacy Died/The Goblin's Last Stand yesterday. They're incredible comics that remind me how good "big 2" comics can be. It's surprising just how much better those two issues are than the rest of the run which, while inconsistent, is mostly pretty damn good.
Other Spidey stuff I often go to is Amazing Fantasy #15 (a perfect comic), Kraven's Last Hunt, DeMatteis' Harry/Green Goblin run, Slott's run up to the end of Superior Spider-man, all the early venom stuff and Origin of the Hobgoblin tpb/Hobgoblin Lives.

Slott's run up to the end of Superior Spider-Man. Still one of the best periods for Spider-Man comics.
Ultimate Spider-Man
Roger Stern's Amazing and Spectacular Spider-Man.
And of course the classic Lee-Ditko run.

[center]Agreed. Still can't resist the legendary, sequential storytelling of...
