I jumped on to spiderman during the Back In Black storyline.I think you should give that a read. It's got some decent stuff in it which I was disappointed to see retconned out.
That being said I was certainly a fan of the brand new day "villain of the month" formula. It let a ton of great artisits and writers work together and tell some fun stories. In fact it was this that got me back into reading comics full time.
I think the only really lame thing to happen in Spiderman in the last few years has been origin of the species. One moment in time was kind of a disappointment, but Origin is just the worst.
