List of The Amazing Spider-Man comics
For the love of all that is good, why does this page exist? Should wikipedia list every comic ever made? This is an encyclopedia!!!! Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. This just encourages guys like Brown Shoes22. Highlights of very important issues MAY belong here(although I doubt it), but listing all these issues??? Delete it now, please!!!!

 * I vote Keep for now unless someone gives a compelling enough reason to delete it. The title of the page is "List of..." so it makes sense that it would be a list of whatever it is. JHMM13 09:24, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I vote keep as well. It's the only one of the many, many Spider-Man series up here, and it's interesting to see the history of the series' run, with characters, artists, etc.
 * Keep. I dislike most "list" entries, but this subject seems far more notable than some other 'crufty' list entries that have made it in. PJM 15:20, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Sorry, I know others like it, but even as a former (huge) Spider Man fan I really cannot see what this is doing on WP.  It belongs on a fansite.  It seems to me that WP is becoming, by stealth, the free web hosting provider of choice for fiction and game fans.  - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] (W) AfD? 19:43, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, as it is a list of a notable comic book. Carioca 23:42, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Spider-Man is a very popular comic book, this list can help illustrate the evolution of this comic. Seano1 01:54, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom., even though I know I'm spitting into the wind. --  Dalbury ( Talk )  01:50, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination. Notable issues / events coinciding with issues could be made into a real article, but a list which instead focusses on just numbering each comic with sometimes some notes to the side does not strike me as appropriate for wikipedia. --Qirex 12:23, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Useless fancruft. --Apostrophe 19:37, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
