SIXTY YEARS AGO, WE ALL HIT THE JACKPOT! Back in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #42, we all got our first real look at MARY JANE WATSON, and sixty years later, we're all still reeling. In that time, she's been a party girl, OTP and even VENOM! To celebrate MJ's storied run, we present three stories of three different MJ eras and an epilogue that points toward the future of the inimitable MJW!

    There’s a further irony in Mary Jane: Face It Tiger. In trying to celebrate the past, Marvel has only exposed how the current Spider-Man comics lack the heart of bygone days. And yet, no matter how long Marvel Editorial tries to keep Peter and MJ apart, “the world will always welcome lovers… as time goes by.” Read Full Review
