Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #11

Part one of a three-issue mystery kicks off with a cover that sets a wonderfully absurd scene: a restrained Spider-Man in his Iron Spider armor rides a cafeteria conveyor belt straight toward Mysterio, who looms menacingly amid swirling green mist while two oblivious lunch-line workers look on — all beneath a chalkboard announcing today's special as "Mystery Meat." The "Spider-Man Unmasked" banner adds an extra layer of intrigue to this already delightfully sinister setup, with cover pencils by Mike Wieringo and inks by Mike Manley delivering the perfect blend of humor and threat. With Peter David writing and Todd Nauck on interior art, this 2006 issue promises a story as flavorful as its cafeteria setting suggests.
