Spider-Man Collectible Series #18
In "Spider-Man Tackles the Torch!", Peter Parker finds himself in a classroom showdown when Spider-Man subdues the menacing Living Brain, leaving Flash stunned and the truth hanging in the air. With the crooked technicians taken out and the situation under control, Peter drops a tantalizing hint to the students—suggesting Flash might be the web-slinger in disguise. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with classic precision by Steve Ditko on art and inks, and colored by Stan Goldberg, this 2006 issue captures the spirit of the original with a clever twist, all wrapped in a striking cover by Ditko.
