“Mayhem Is... the Men-Fish!”

Spider-Man and Namor the Sub-Mariner share the spotlight in this 1991 Marvel Tales reprint, with Marshall Rogers's cover depicting the wall-crawler swooping down toward a powerfully built Namor as the two heroes converge above a waterfront dock. The blurb promises a team-up against the threat of Doctor Dorcas and his Men-Fish — a fine pairing of Marvel's street-level acrobat and its regal Atlantean warrior. As a bonus, the issue also includes a feature explaining how Spider-Man's spider-sense works, making it a satisfying package for fans of both action and Marvel lore.
