In 1963 Marvel Comics gave the rights to publish stories of their characters to a publisher in Mexico called La Prensa, they were able to print the stories of Hulk, Captain America, The Avengers, the Ant-Man and the Wasp, The X-Men, Iron Man, Daredevil, The Fantastic Four and of course, The Amazing Spider-Man, these comics were sold in many places, like Mexico, Peru, and other countries (I could only find those two) and they had translations of the original stories, however, Marvel allowed them to create original stories with original artwork, the art for the original comics was made by José Luis Gonzalez Duran, who also drew the art for the daily newspaper comic strip.

Today i am gonna review one of these stories

This is the cover for El Sorprendente Hombre Araña #153, which used to be $1.50 Mexican pesos back in 1973.


The Story is actually really good, it features Spider-Man going to Europe to stop a tyrant, a bunch of knights beat the shit out of Spidey, but Spider-Man manages to stop the tyrant and his rebellion and then just goes back to new york.


The art by Jose Luis Duran is really good, but some of the panels are traced from other Spider-Man comic books, but i do like how he draws Spider-Man and other marvel characters.



This is a great book, 9/10.


It would be really cool to actually find a copy... Maybe someday i will go to a convention and find one of these comics.
