Written and illustrated in 1970 through late 1971, Spider-Man: The Manga was brought to the world by award-winning mangaka Ryoichi Ikegami.

Isn’t this neat?
I remember Marvel ran this in the late 90’s translated, but unfortunately I never picked it up.
That Spider-Man looks a lot like John Buscema’s rendition.
I read this a long time ago, and LOVED it, I’ve never seen it officially translated. I would have paid a decent sum for it.
I’ve read it, it’s quite good actually but rather dark and the translations aren’t top notch. But a good read despite only being canceled after 29 chapters.

Oh, and I like that cover 🙂
Anyone know how long it was? Been considering picking it up myself too.
Actually, while Ikegami got solo credit when the manga was translated to English in the 90’s, there were two writers. The first writer was really really bad, and the second writer was really really good.
It looks quite interesting, i’ve never heard of anything like this before the newer version with the ninja spider-man, anyone have seen this manga?
