In "The Spider and the Sorcerer!", Spider-Man finds himself caught in a deadly game when the sorcerer Xandu manipulates him to steal a powerful crystal from Dr. Strange’s sanctum. Trapped in a dimension where their powers vanish, the web-slinger and the Sorcerer Supreme must swap abilities to survive — Spider-Man wielding magic, Strange harnessing superhuman reflexes — in a battle that tests their limits. Written by Len Wein and brought to life by Sal Buscema’s dynamic art, with inks by Frank Giacoia and Dave Hunt, and colors by Nelson Yomtov, this 1979 Marvel Treasury Edition features a striking cover by Bob Budiansky and Joe Sinnott.
