My top five favorite Spider-Man stories are all old enough to run for President: Amazing Fantasy #15, the Master Planner saga, The Night Gwen Stacy Died, Nothing Can Stop the Juggernaut and the Kid Who Collected Spider-Man.

There are some newer ones that would be on my top ten (Kraven's Last Hunt- which isn't that new, The first Kingpin arc of Ultimate Spider-Man, Superior Spider-Man #1-10) but they're not in my top five.

Preferences can occur for a variety of reasons. It could be that I like these older comics because these were better than the material when I started reading (the mid-90s) and that if I was a little younger, my favorites would be the more cinematic later stories.

But I'm curious what you guys consider your absolute favorites.
