When you buy a product like this, there are two things that are important, to me there are anyway, namely the story and the quality of the book(paper, colouring, ...) and both are of a really high standard.
The story is a nostalgic one. Peter Parker/Spider-Man tells the story of how he met and came to love Gwen Stacy into an old recorder. The story is told with a voiceover. A storytelling devise Jeph Loeb uses a lot in his stories. We see what is happening while we can read what Peter's ... Read More

One of my favorite Spider-Man stories, let alone Jeph Loeb stories. It truly is a heart-felt journey, and I was glad I took it.

This isn't too bad, somewhat pretty, but not overly interesting. Seems a decent excuse for them to draw some retro high school hip chicks, I suppose. Throw in Spidey's rogues gallery, as well. It is perhaps trying to hard to get that balance between retro and modern enough to appeal to the kidlets of today.

I'm a big fan off Tim Sale and Jeph Loeb. I love the work they've done with Batman, and out comes another fantastically told story.
I did not grow up with Gwen Stacy. I'm not a rabid Spider-Man fan. In fact, you might not even call me a rabid comic book fan. I enjoy them, but I'm more casual. I like short run series, and this is one of the best ones I've read in a while.
It was honestly one of the most satisfying reads I've had in a very long time.

Blue is a well drawn work. Tim Sale's art does not disappoint nor do Steve Buccaletto's colors.
Where Blue stumbles is the horrible, trite "humor" spouted by Spidey during his fisticuffs.
Jeph Loeb is a talented writer and should have made Spiderman's banter humorous not cliched and wretched. It's a very irritating distractor.
Ultimately, Blue fails to deliver anything new or original to Spiderman's early days. It's a decent work but nothing special.
