What is your favorite Dan Slott Spider-Man story?

[MJS]

I voted other.

In my opinion asking for a favourite Dan Slott story is like asking for a favourite flavour of vomit.

[Snidlefighter]

I voted for Superior Spiderman. To me Superior Spiderman was a breath of fresh air injected into Spiderman which hadn't really been felt since the JMS era. Honestly though I have enjoyed much of Slott's work since he has taken over writing duties full-time but will admit after Superior Spiderman has ended, to me his writing has been rather lackluster.

Definetely the Spider-Man / Human Torch: I'am with stupid limited series. That one is goldmine. Very funny and I think Dan Slott at his best.

I like New ways to die too.

I love New Ways to Die, I own the story on Hardcover, but I absolutely do not like JRJr art at all in the whole volume. I will never understand the appeal of his current art, it is very sloppy/muddy.

I usually go with "I'm With Stupid" but----while I still love it----it isn't overly ambitious. It has the perfect blend of humor and action; it depicts Spidey and Torch's friendship about as well as anyone ever has; it features a good mix of villains and fight scenes and is overall a very satisfying story. But....

I have to say that "Dying Wish/Superior" was even better; it is definitely among the most ambitious (and left-field) ideas ever attempted in Spidey's history and was executed extremely well; hardly anyone I know would not point to those first 12-15 issues of Superior and gripe. It was a fun---and unexpected----ride; there were problems and it required a larger than usual suspension of disbelief but, considering the scope of the work, it was pretty damn impressive.

I suspect "Renew Your Vows" will get a lot of votes and I like that quite a bit also but I gotta go with "Dying Wish/Superior".

Renew your vows was the first Spiderman story in awhile that I read to have a lot of emotional weight too it. It was probably also one of the very few Secret Wars minis that was worth reading as well.

These are my Top 5 from Slott's runs on Spider-Man:

1. Renew Your Vows.
2. Dying Wish/Superior Spider-Man
3. Spider-Island.
4. No One Dies.
5. Big Time.

Since guys are posting their top fives...

5. Renew Your Vows
4. Spider Island
3. Spider-Man/ Human Torch: I'm With Stupid
2. Dying Wish/ Superior Spider-Man (although it's probably too long to list as one story)
1. No One Dies

[Uncanny Mutie]

All of Dan Slott's work was really good, prior to the lackluster ending of Superior Spider-Man. It's been pretty downhill from there, IMO. Especially the two sucky rebooted volumes of ASM that followed Superior Spider-Man. Renew Your Vows has been the only bright spot post Superior Spider-Man, IMO.

Renew your vows, obvs.

But I also loved Ends of the Earth, Spider Island and Big Time.

If we're doing Top Five...

5. Spider-Verse [I really liked all the side-stories, maybe moreso than the main story]
4. I'm With Stupid
3. Superior
2. No One Dies
1. Mysterioso

[Scott Taylor]

My top five:

1. Renew Your Vows
2. Trouble on the Horizon
3. Paparrazi!
4. New Ways to Die
5. Spider-Verse

[BruceWayneJr.]

I loved Spider-Island when I didn't expect it to be good at all, but Ends of the Earth gets my vote. The James Bond-style stuff was a treat, seeing Spidey boss around The Avengers was cool to see, and all the battles with the Sinister Six were fun. As a Doctor Octopus story, it's one of the best.

[HAVOK78]

I am not a Slott fan, but he knows Doc Ock, and writes him real well so I like stories with him in it. RYV was really good, but I imagine it's a little easier to write that story because of what came before.

[Zeitgeist]

No One Dies, easy.

[Celgress]

Dying Wish/ Superior Spider-Man is my favorite story over all.
