    It really isn't, though at least it isn't One More Day.

    Welcome to the vine btw.

    Not remotely.

    Read: Kraven's Last Hunt, Death of Gwen Stacy, Revenge of the Green Goblin, The first few appearances of Venom...

    The Clone Saga is a bit down on the list.

    Personally I think The Other was the best Spidey story arc I read.

    the clone saga is perhaps my favorite spidey arc since it was the first major arc that i bought and at the time i loved it...i've wanted to reread it again but it's too much of a hassle to pull out all those issues....they need to make it into trades like earth x and aoa

    Amen to that. Clone Saga was mostly crap. Even though the Death of Aunt May in #400 was done really well, and the Revelations storyline was pretty good. Other than that, crap, crap, and more crap!!!!

    Brand new day and the bulk of the clone saga are the worst stories in Spider-Man, and even though I loved Straczynski's run, the other fell short as well. The best stories are Spidey's Origin,Final Chapter, Spider-man no more, the Death of Gwen Stacy, Kraven's Last Hunt, Revenge of the Green Goblin, The story where Harry Osborn dies (can't remember the name), Spider-Man Reign, Spider-Man Blue, the very last issue of the clone saga, and pretty much the entire Ultimate Spider-Man series, and John Romita Jr. and J. Michael Strczynski's run of Amazing, Millar's MK Spider-Man run, and New Avengers.... Not any really specific story, just love how Spidey's handled there. But, to reiterate... No. Brand new day is NOT the best spider-man story. Far, far from it.
