For those of you who didn't already know, Ultimate Spider-Man is one of the newer series of Spidey comics to be released, in an effort to 21st Century-ise the story of Spider-Man. The series is obviously released in monthly comic book form, but you can buy the reprints from Amazon.co.uk.

There are 3 volumes of the Ultimate Spider-Man reprintes available at the moment:
Volume 1: "Power and Responsibility".
Reprinting issues #1-7, volume 1 obviously tells the story of Peter Parker's transformation into Spider-Man, and the lesson he learns that with great power, comes great responsibility... a quote that has become one of the most famous comic book quotes of all time. You'll also get a first look at Ultimate Spider-Man's Green Goblin, who has been given a far more evil and demonic visage than the one seen in previous Spider-Man comic series.
Volume 2: "Learning Curve".
Reprinting issues #8-13, volume 2 sees Spidey taking on Wilson Fish, aka The Kingpin, the Enforcers and Electro. When Peter discovers that Uncle Ben's murderer was once working alongside the Kingpin and the Enforcers, he dons his Spidey costume and pays a visit to the Kingpin... with disastorous results. The Shocker also has a sort of cameo appearence in this volume.
Volume 3: "Double Trouble".
Reprinting issues #14-21, volume 3 tells the origin of Doctor Octopus and how Spider-Man meets "the most dangerous man on Earth", Kraven the Hunter. Spider-Man is finding it hard to cope with being a superhero and school at the same time, and if that wasn't enough, one of Flash Thompson's friends, "King Kong", figures out who Spidey really is. Also in this volume, a clue to the origin of Electro is revealled and readers get their first glimpse of the Sandman.
I seriously recommend that you buy these books. If you're a longtime fan of Spider-Man, then it's a good oppitunity to see how good a job Marvel are doing at re-vamping their characters... and newcomers to Spidey's world will find enough here to have a more-than-vague idea of how Spidey used to be.
Alongside Ultimate Spider-Man, Marvel have also released reprints of Ultimate X-Men... along with Ultimate Marvel Team-up (the first 5 issues of which star none other than Spider-Man, alongside "Ultimate" versions of the Hulk and Iron Man), though I haven't got round to buying these yet.
