Marvel Tales #147

Spider-Man swings into serious trouble on this 1983 reprint, as the cover — penciled by Steve Ditko and Jack Kirby and inked by Ditko and Dick Ayers — puts him face-to-face with the three-man threat of The Enforcers, a colorfully dressed trio who've got him tangled up and on the defensive. The bold cover copy promises a look at why J. Jonah Jameson truly despises your friendly neighborhood wall-crawler, adding an extra layer of intrigue to an already action-packed package. With Stan Lee and Steve Ditko's interior work on "The Enforcers," Marvel Tales #147 delivers a sharp slice of early Marvel storytelling at a very approachable sixty cents.
