In "The Terrible Threat of the Living Brain," a malfunctioning computer at Peter's school awakens into a sentient, dangerous entity after a botched theft, forcing Spider-Man to confront a new kind of menace. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with sharp, eerie visuals by Steve Ditko—both on interior art and cover—this 1982 Marvel Tales issue delivers a classic sci-fi twist on the web-slinger’s rogues’ gallery.
