With Great Power: How Spider-Man Conquered Hollywood during the Golden Age of Comic Book Blockbusters

"Sean O’Connell’s With Great Power is a perfect example of how pop culture, comic books, and even specific characters transcend cultural differences."

The Cosmic Circus

“A hugely entertaining and informative chronicle of the big screen history of everyone’s favorite web crawler from Queens. This is a Spider-Man book by a fan for fans!”

Josh Horowitz, MTV/Comedy Central

“From the Spider-Man projects that didn’t swing to arguably the greatest film achievement in history, Sean helps the reader understand how it all unfolded. There will never be another Spider-Man book like With Great Power.”

Scott King, Forbes.com

“Clones? Alternate timelines? Parallel realities? The behind-the-scenes history of the Spider-Man movies has them all beat for head-spinning complexity, and Sean O’Connell arrives just in time to untangle that web.”

Douglas Wolk, author of Eisner Award-winning All of the Marvels

“O’Connell spins a web that readers will find hard to put down. Excelsior!”

Bob Batchelor, author of Stan Lee: A Life

"The love for the Spider-Man character, in all of his various media, is apparent from the very first page. [...] This book has certainly made me want to dig into anything and everything Spider-Man"
