Spider-Man #85

Cover art by John Romita Jr. and Scott Hanna puts Spider-Man at the center of a crackling, electric assault — the web-slinger recoils in a burst of energy as the armored Shocker stands poised and menacing in the foreground, with the single word "SHOCKING!" leaving little doubt about the threat on hand. Howard Mackie and Andy Smith bring their "Little Lies" storyline to Peter Parker: Spider-Man #85, promising the kind of super-powered confrontation that made Marvel's 1997 lineup so compelling. It's a punchy, kinetic cover that sets the stage nicely for whatever sparks fly inside.
