The post The Amazing Spider-Man #1000 – REVIEW appeared first on Amazing Spider-Talk.

In this episode, Dan is joined by writer Paul Jenkins for a special discussion of his classic story “Heroes Don’t Cry” from Peter Parker: Spider-Man (vol. 1) #35, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary of publication on September 19th, 2026.

The story, featuring artwork by Mark Buckingham and Wayne Faucher, follows a child named LaFronce, his drug-addicted mother, and his imaginary encounters with Spider-Man. It tackled difficult but important themes regarding drug addiction, parenting, race, and the adoption system in America, amongst other things, and has since become an important comic not only in Spider-Man’s legacy, but across the medium, particularly for its inclusion of the first portrayal of Spider-Man as a black man.

If you haven’t read the story for yourself, it’s available digitally on Marvel Unlimited and for purchase and can be found for a reasonable price from back-issue retailers.
