El Hombre Araña / El Asombroso Hombre Araña #440

In "Sólo se vive una vez," the Hombre Araña faces his most desperate challenge yet when the Doctor Pulpo unleashes a biological weapon with the goal of eradicating all of New York—just to eliminate the Spider-Man he fears. Written by David Michelinie and Delfina Fuentes, with art by Alex Saviuk and inks by Vince Colletta, this 1989 issue sees Spider-Man confront the villain in a battle where he lets himself be overpowered, trusting in a plan born of desperation and resolve. The cover by Alex Saviuk and Keith Williams captures the tension of a city on the brink.
