Spectacular Spider-Man #3
In "The Hunger Part 3," Spider-Man confronts the terrifying truth that the Venom suit is no longer just a weapon—it’s hunting for a new host, and Peter Parker may be its next target. With Flash Thompson still unconscious and May’s plan underway, Spider-Man finds himself cornered as Venom and Brock close in. Written by Paul Jenkins and brought to life by Humberto Ramos’s dynamic art and Wayne Faucher’s sharp inks, this issue ramps up the tension with a chilling realization that hits too late. The cover by Ramos and Faucher captures the dread of the moment perfectly.
