Definitely The Owl/Octopus War from Spectacular Spider-Man vol. 1 #75-79.

Easily Doc Ock at his scariest, most ruthless and most unhinged.
I really enjoyed this run overall and am sad that it is over. Tom Taylor really understood the character and delivered some very solid stories.
I'm really hoping Marvel revives Spectacular again as I always thought it and Amazing were the two strongest Spider-Man titles by far. In fact, I was actually pretty disappointed when they cancelled...
No mention of Best of Enemies from Spectacular vol. 1 #200 where Harry Osborn dies? I'd say that is pretty darn important.
Everything about this issue just felt like padding until the next. This has been my biggest gripe with City of Bane; this arc has been stretched way too thin.
Definitely Hunted. Spencer's run has been really good in general, but Hunted truly fired on all cylinders for me.
We're near the end of 2019 and the only notable Batman story to feature Poison Ivy this year was Everyone Loves Ivy from Batman vol. 3 #41-43...which I thought was a huge disappointment. Sigh :(
I would personally still vote Snyder, but I'd probably be in the minority on that. I like Grant Morrison's Batman work for the most part, but I don't adore it like so many other people seem to.
Definitely one of the worst Spider-Man stories of the 1970s.
You're welcome. It probably feels longer because the character has gone through a lot since then.
It's funny; I am Bane is my favorite story in King's run, but even I find it difficult to defend its repetitious dialogue.
Red Hood: Lost Days came out in 2010? For some reason I thought it was older. I agree it's a solid story though.
I've enjoyed most of Grant Morrison's work on the character, but he has never really been one of my favorite Batman writers.
01.) Spider-Man
02.) X-Men
03.) Hulk
I do think Spencer is telling some very good stories within the restored status quo.
Sorry, I didn't know that other people have already made this thread before.
An accurate analysis of their respective runs. Which would you say you personally enjoyed more though?
That is one complaint I have about Spencer's run. He has done a fantastic job building up Kindred and I'm very interested to know who he is, but the reveal is taking a bit too long for my liking.
That would be interesting. But hopefully, if that did occur, everyone would be smart enough to know that he isn't the real Spider-Man.
After two stellar runs by Mark Waid and Charles Soule, I am very happy to say that Chip Zdarsky is more than living up to their high standard. The 2010s have been a pretty great decade for The Man...
Snyder's Batman run is definitely a modern classic. King's definitely has some great moments, but has been far too inconsistent in my opinion for me to view it in the same light.
I personally loved most of Snyder's run, but have had some very mixed feelings towards King's.
Of this decade, Scott Snyder and Tom King are probably the two biggest Batman writers that first come to mind. So which writer do you personally think is better? Which writer do you think has a...
I will personally take that over the nonsense Dan Slott did with the franchise--namely during his final four years on the title.
