Marvel’s Most Infamous Spider-Man Story Was Actually Its Best Mistake
Most people want to forget one of Spider-Man's worst stories, but it actually gave us a lot more good than we give it credit for.
A comic book story ingrains itself into the minds of fans for one of two reasons: either it is incredibly good or so bad that it haunts fans’ nightmares.
Spider-Man, being Marvel’s premier superhero, has plenty of awesome stories, but one of his most famous can never be forgotten for all the wrong reasons: the “Clone Saga”.
- The “Clone Saga” is widely regarded as one of the worst Spidey comics.
- It is an overbloated, convoluted mess that went on longer than intended.

Either the story is incredibly, generation-defining good, or it’s so bad that it will haunt fans’ nightmares for the rest of time.
