This one’s not in the best shape. It’s got a badly rolled spine. I think I might be able to fix it, actually. But first, I shall read it. The splash says…

Jazzy John Romita tags back in on pencil duties this issue. Stan & Frank hang on from last issue as Spidey notices the spy camera that just saw him with his mask…
