Not sure what to tell you about Wolverine as I don't really read his solo comics.

Spiderman can be a little tougher when looking at the older issues. Older comics from the 1960s can be hard to read (boring, weird, lame, disproven science, etc.) so you may want to read a couple of issues before purchasing anything. Spiderman's early issues are better than some but they're still from the 1960s. You may want to look for origin stories for your favorite villains. Same applies to the 70s and 80s. I haven't read anything from the 90s so I'll leave that to someone else. I wish I could recommend something from when Peter and MJ were married but Marvel was trying to split them up in the early 2000s, even before the One More Day storyline which I've heard was pretty bad. Post One More Day, I would start with the story Big Time, where Peter gets a job working for Horizon Labs. It was written by Dan Scott who has been writing Spiderman for the past few years and he's done a great job.

You can get digital comics from either Comixology, Amazon, or Marvel Unlimited. Amazon actually owns Comixology but I think the Comixology app and website are much more user friendly. Comixology runs sales every week. Marvel sales are on Mondays and Friday but they may go through the week or the weekend if a MCU movie or Netflix series is about to come out. Starting on Tuesdays they'll pick a different publisher and run that sale through the week.

Marvel Unlimited is a streaming service where you can read as many comics as you want each month. You can pay $10 a month or $70 a year. They also have an Unlimited Plus subscription where you get extras like an exclusive Marvel Legends figure.

Yeah, I may want to read a few from the 60's, but it's honestly hard because until the 80's, art in comics just wasn't very good. Stuff from the 60's is hard for my eyes to stomach, and of course the writing is sometimes atrocious.

Exclusive Marvel Legends figure? What figures have they done in the past that were exclusives?
