Spider-Man #51

Part three of "Power and Responsibility" arrives in October 1994, and Tom Lyle's cover sets the stakes immediately: a hooded, bare-footed figure in a dark jacket bearing Spider-Man's unmistakable mask lunges forward against a moonlit sky, chains trailing from one hand as smoke and fire erupt around the rooftops below. The cover copy promises that Spider-Man's clone swings into action to save the life of the original, making this an urgent chapter in Howard Mackie and Tom Lyle's four-part arc. With the corner box teasing "Traveller — Triumphant!" inside, issue #51 has a lot going on and a great deal of tension packed into one dynamic image.
