The Visual Eras of Spider-Man
A breakdown of Spider-Mans 60 year history through the lens of the artwork, merchandise and media that formed around the character. This video is heavily inspired by the book: "Spider-Man the Icon" by Steve Saffel which was a great asset for researching this video. I've owned a copy since I was very young.
