FF #17

A perfectly mundane morning goes delightfully sideways on Mike Choi's cover for this 2012 FF issue: a young man in a tank top sits on the couch eating cereal — complete with a box of "Thing's" cereal and a carton of milk on the coffee table — while Spider-Man crouches right behind him on the sofa back, peering over his shoulder with unmistakable curiosity. "The Roommate Experiment" promises the kind of charming domestic comedy that Jonathan Hickman, Nick Dragotta, and Chris Sotomayor do so well, and this cover sets the tone with a warm, knowing humor that makes it impossible not to pick up.
