Marvel Tales #104

This 1979 reprint showcase puts Spider-Man front and center, dramatically pinned against a giant web while the Vulture swoops menacingly overhead with green wings spread wide. Surrounding our hero are Mary Jane, a pair of struggling figures, and a confrontational scene featuring Harry Osborne — all framed by cover teaser captions asking urgent questions about killers, hatred, and dangerous skies. John Romita's cover work ties it all together with that unmistakable Marvel energy, and the bold tagline "The Dark Wings of Death!" makes a compelling case that this is exactly the comic to pick up this month.
