Eks almanah #427
In "And He Strikes Like a Thunderball," Spider-Man pays a heartfelt visit to Timothy Harrison, a young fan battling leukemia, sharing not just his powers but his origin story—and even his secret identity. Written by Roger Stern and brought to life with emotional precision by artists Ron Frenz and Terry Austin, this touching tale captures a rare, intimate moment between hero and fan. The cover, by Greg LaRocque and Al Milgrom, perfectly frames the story’s quiet gravity.
In a quiet moment between hero and fan, Spider-Man pays a heartfelt visit to Timothy Harrison, a young boy whose admiration for the web-slinger runs deep. As Peter Parker shares his origin and even reveals his secret identity, the bond between them becomes something far more meaningful than just a superhero's visit—especially as Timothy’s illness casts a quiet shadow over their time together.
