Description
A high-school student named Yu Komori is bitten by a radioactive spider, which gave him spider-like powers. Yu faces Japanese versions of villains such as Electro, the Lizard and the Kangaroo. Yu also has an Aunt May (her name is "Mei"), and the publisher of the Joho newspaper is a counterpart to J. Jonah Jameson.

"the stories written by Hirai departed even further from the source material, and included scenes of sexual and gruesome imagery of a kind not seen in the original US Spider-Man comics"
very interesting and curious. But volume 1 dont have that much of either things.

I'm really sad that manga is so low ranked, it's a piece of art that probably comics readers do not value it to be extremely different from the original. I like the original Spider-Man, but this spider is so or more amazing. The dark and mature approach shows a very different reality of American idealism of the same time. This work is a classic that deserved to be known by all. Congratulations to the artists who are able to provided us this material.
really good , one of the best manga ive ever read , the spider-man is just an excuse to the main character be stronger than the other characters , this manga i s actually a underrated psychological manga! the stories feel like acid trips , the characters are very human , this work remembered me Devilman a lot !
if you dig for mature manga this is definitely a good call .Tho' since it was axed it doesn't have a proper ending

If you liked the US version of Spider Man, you wont like this. If you don't like the US version of Spider Man, you wont like this. Overall crap. It had a rushed ending for a reason, it sucked.
