So, a year and a half ago, when we left off with ASM 156 (Not too big a gap, right?), Dock Ock revealed himself to be alive to Aunt May in spite…

End of Block 30
I usually base the Spider-Mans on a drawing from the period, but had to use Ross Andru’s MJ & Pete for the big kiss here, too. Big moment in Spider-Man history! Also…
ASM 152
Mike Esposito & Frank Giacoia swap in on inks this issue. Spidey’s still up to his neck in a flooding sewer as we begin, and page two is another common Ross Andru…

In the early 90s, they printed a “Marvel Milestone Edition” of this issue, so I finally got to read it. I later secured an original copy just out of some weird desire…
