Amazing Spider-Man (Vol 1 1963) Issues 351-400
For Amazing Spider-Man issues 351-400 (1991-1995), the narrative was primarily shaped by writers David Michelinie and J.M. DeMatteis, who brought their unique storytelling flair to the freindly neighbourhood Spider-Man's world. Michelinie continued to explore complex villain dynamics and layered personal storylines, while DeMatteis delved into the psychological aspects of Peter Parker, offering deeper emotional resonance and philosophical challenges.
