Well, alright. Firebrand’s weird fist logo sure seems out of place in the rest of the suit. Just Keith Williams inking and Nel Yomtov coloring this time, as we find Spider-Man trying…

While Todd McFarlane’s art seems so… not too good to my adult eye, at the same time, it’s as simple as looking at this cover to see why he became the biggest…

It’s the introduction of Chance. I always assumed ASM 298 introduced him as a kid. It certainly did a good job of re-introducing him. For the first time in forever, the same…
