Spider-Girl #72

May Parker's confident smile dominates this 2004 cover as Spider-Girl looms large over the action below, where her red-and-blue-suited alter ego tangles with two armed thugs — one in green, one in yellow — web-slinging them into submission. The title "The Games Villains Play!" promises exactly the kind of lively adversarial fun this cover delivers, with Ron Frenz's pencils and Sal Buscema's inks striking a great balance between dynamic superhero action and the everyday teenager behind the mask. A solid entry in Marvel's long-running Spider-Girl series, this issue captures the dual-identity charm that made May Parker's adventures so appealing.
