As if Spider-Man hasn’t gone through enough trauma recently, now he has to do this guaranteed-to-be-stupid story. Once again, shout out the guy at the local flea market for putting a single…

ASM 388
Annuals, of course, are 64 pages, and expected to feature 3-4 stories. Big deal anniversary issues are usually oversized, maybe double-sized/annual sized, and contain several stories, with at least the excuse of…
SMU 04
Oh goody, Mysterio. Cover price: $3.95 in 1993 dollars. Your McKay’s price: 90 cents. An indication of quality, I’m sure. This month’s main feature is inked by Scott Hanna, Al Milgrom and…

Venom 4
Ah, yes, just what we needed, more symbiotes. Didn’t this one already show up in a later comic around here? Yeah, Spider-Man 52, Web 119, Spider-Man 53. So here’s where she came…
SM 26
No idea on this hologram. Romita, Sr. maybe? Could be Mike Zeck. No idea. Last issue promised this one would reunite the DeFalco/Frenz team with Erik Larsen inking. I don’t know why…
Maximum Clonage Alpha
I believe this is what they called a “chromium” cover. To date, I don’t know what that actually means. So, years prior to this, the Spidey titles ran an interminable 14-issue story…
