Marvel Tales #59

Marvel Tales #59 brings Spider-Man face-to-face with the Prowler in "The Night of the Prowler!" — and John Romita's cover captures the confrontation with real kinetic energy. The Prowler looms over a prone Spider-Man, firing blasts that explode against the rooftop below, his green-and-purple costume and billowing cape making him an imposing presence against a fiery red sky. Inside, Stan Lee's script and John Buscema's art promise the same high-octane Spidey action that made Marvel's 1975 lineup so compelling.
