Description

The Amazing Spider-Man Daily Comic Strip for Thursday May 20th, 1999. Written by Stan Lee and Penciled & Inked by Larry Lieber (Signed bottom right).

The Amazing Spider-Man debuted on January 3, 1977. Produced by Marvel and syndicated by the Register and Tribune Syndicate through 1985, Cowles Media Company in 1986, and King Features Syndicate after 1987, the comic strip was successful in an era with few serialized adventure strips. The strip slowly grew in circulation.

Initially the creative team was again Lee and Romita. After four years Romita left the strip, but Stan Lee remained the credited writer of the strip's entire run of original material. Though renowned for his use of the Marvel method, Lee wrote full scripts for the comic strip. Stan Lee's brother, Larry Lieber, briefly illustrated the strip but found he could not keep up with the schedule, and in August 1981 Fred Kida took on the assignment. Unlike most artists who worked on The Amazing Spider-Man, Kida found that drawing Spider-Man in daily strip form did not present any challenges, but he finally left in July 1986, later commenting that he found the strip's violence to be excessive. After a brief stint by Dan Barry, Lee asked his brother if he wanted to give it another try. This time Larry Lieber was able to keep up with the schedule, and he drew the daily strip for the following 32 years. The Amazing Spider-Man also employed inkers and separate artists for the Sunday version of the strip. From 1997 until the strip ceased running new material in 2019, Alex Saviuk inked the daily strips and penciled the Sunday strips. After Lieber retired in 2018, Saviuk took over penciling the daily strip as well. In addition, numerous ghost artists contributed to the strip over the years.

The Amazing Spider-Man is a daily comic strip featuring the character Spider-Man which has been syndicated for more than 40 years. It is a dramatic, soap opera-style strip with story arcs which typically run for 8 to 12 weeks. While the strip uses many of the same characters as the Spider-Man comic book, the storylines are nearly all originals and do not share the same continuity. A consistently popular strip, new material was published from 1977 to 2019, with the strip going into reruns afterwards.

I like this little bit of character building for MJ. It isn't as glamorous swinging across town with Spider-Man as the comic makes it out to be.
