{"product_id":"9780143135739","title":"The Amazing Spider-Man","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt is impossible to imagine American popular culture without Marvel Comics. For decades, Marvel has published groundbreaking visual narratives that sustain attention on multiple levels: as metaphors for the experience of difference and otherness; as meditations on the fluid nature of identity; and as high-water marks in the artistic tradition of American cartooning, to name a few. This anthology contains twelve key stories from the first two years of Spider-Man's publication history (from 1962 to 1964). These influential adventures not only transformed the super hero fantasy into an allegory for the pain of adolescence but also brought a new ethical complexity to the genre-by insisting that with great power there must also come great responsibility. A foreword by Jason Reynolds and scholarly introductions and apparatus by Ben Saunders offer further insight into the enduring significance of The Amazing Spider-Man and classic Marvel comics. The Penguin Classics black spine paperback features full-colour art throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Stan+Lee\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eStan Lee\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Steve+Ditko\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eSteve Ditko\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Penguin+Classics+Marvel+Collection\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003ePenguin Classics Marvel Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Stan Lee,Steve Ditko,Penguin Classics Marvel Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47380573257891,"sku":"9780143135739","price":610.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9780143135739_eb0429e3-7b57-43a4-8c63-5ea6481d547f.jpg?v=1776455542","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9780143135739","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
