Mary Jane & Black Cat #1

Mary Jane Watson and Black Cat make for an unexpectedly compelling duo, and this 2023 opener under the "Dark Web" banner sets the stage with confidence. J. Scott Campbell's cover presents the two front and center — Mary Jane in casual street clothes holding a small glowing cube, Black Cat in her sleek black costume striking a cool, self-assured pose — while menacing purple demonic creatures lurk and creep through the eerie green background around them. With Jed MacKay writing and Vincenzo Carratù on art, "The Mask of Doctor Doom" promises an adventure that puts two of Spider-Man's most important women in a spotlight very much their own.
