Sometimes the covers of comics in the 90s made it challenging to bring them home. My folks were largely hands off with this dumb hobby, but “DIE DIE DIE DIE” isn’t really…

At last, indeed. A 6 part story called Return of the Sinister Six where they don’t do anything together ‘til part 4 seems a bit odd. But, then, what would Spidey do…
