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…
ASM 151
151 begins Len Wein’s run as writer on Spidey. Marvel clearly liked what he did on Team-Up enough to give him the keys to the car. Ross Andru stays on as regular…
