Title: Spidey Betrayed -- by Indifferent Proofreaders
Product review: This interesting black-and-white blast from Marvel's Silver Age past is thankfully uncolored, either by Ted Turner or anyone else -- but the appalling number of typos make the book irritating to read. Can't Marvel afford proofreaders, or is all their money going to publicize the Spider-Man movies? The contents page lists the reprint as "relettered," leading me to wonder if the typos were faithfully copied from the original or were added in the relettering, or a mixture of both. Pages 32 and 33 alone contain 6 typos, leading to such enlightening exchanges as "It's Mr. Jameson. He has any appointment." "My story will make you for a shoo-in for office." "Yes, yes. Or course." My own favorite is Captain Stacy's comment, "May heaven protect us from those they know all they need to know...about anything." Heaven protect us, indeed.
