Amazing Spider-Man Modern Era Epic Collection: Sins Past

J. Michael Straczynski's defining era continues! Peter Parker explores the mysterious totemic origins of his powers as the enigmatic Ezekiel returns. Is he truly a mentor and ally – or is there more to him?

After a dimension-shattering battle between Spider-Man, Doctor Strange and Dormammu, a powerful sorceress is freed from her long imprisonment. She sets out to "thank" the one responsible: the web-slinger himself! Featuring an appearance by Loki, Thor's not-so-well-behaved stepbrother. But then a shocking new foe rises – and Spidey's worst defeat, long believed buried, tears open his deepest wound and threatens everything Peter loves.
