Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham #15
In "To Oink or Not To Oink or the Days of Swine and Roses," Peter Porker faces a dilemma that’s as sticky as peanut butter—literally and emotionally—while navigating a world where even the most ordinary choices come with a side of absurdity. This 1987 issue, part of Marvel’s delightfully offbeat Peter Porker series, features a letterer credited only as "typeset" and a cover by Joe Albelo, whose inks bring the porky hero’s chaotic world to life.

At the Daily Beagle, Peter works up the nerve to ask Batty Brant for a date, but she rejects him, plunging him into sorrow. Jonah and the interns become The Black Jackal and his Beagle Brigadeers (Bullet Bunny, Power Puss, and Invisi-Jackal Junior), and they take Peter to a celebrity party. The Hobgobbler kidnaps Barbara Mandrill, and Spider-Ham rescues her. Arriving home, Aunt May introduces Peter to Mary Jane Waterbuffalo.
