How do you follow up what is possibly the greatest comic book video game of all time? Or at least was probably holding that spot when it came out. Easy, you just pick the story up right there and start going again. Enter Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro. More like Enter Awesomeness.

Enter Anthony Gramuglia to help break down this not as iconic but equally as good in its own special way sequel, Spider-Man's place in pop culture, and the Spider-Man comics that were coming out at the time.

Learn such things as:

  • How did this game react to  national tragedy?
  • How many Spider-Man 2's is too many?
  • Where are all the other heroes that showed up in the first game?
  • And so much more!

You can Anthony literally all over the place, but the easiest way is to head over to his website where you can find articles, from all across the internet. But also you can check out Twitter @AGramuglia.
