The logo is no match for Kaine! Steven Butler & Tom Lyle appear to be the only ones maintaining McFarlane’s crazy perm for MJ. Everyone else has pretty much given her her…

The folks who make Web of Spider-Man must’ve felt ripped off to be the only title that didn’t get a fancy cover. This one makes no sense at all. In this period,…
