It can’t be that easy, can it? Dave Simons is back on inks this month. Has anyone inked more than 2 issues in a row of this run? I don’t think so….

ASM 244
Uh-oh, look who’s back. It’s been a whole 5 issues since the biggest new Spider-Man villain since the 60s hit the scene, which is a pretty long time, actually, almost half a…
ASM 243
Now here’s an awfully weird cover composition. There’s so much going on and yet it still feels empty. Funny how it’s selling the idea that Peter must choose between these 2 women…

TAC 059
Another very old time-y looking cover from Bob Wiacek. This one has always struck me as odd. Jim Mooney flying solo on the art for this one, which opens with some dudes…
