“Unmasked by Dr. Octopus!”

In "Unmasked by Dr. Octopus!", a weakened Peter Parker faces his nemesis at his most vulnerable, as Doc Ock uses Betty Brant as bait during a bout of the 24-hour flu. When the web-slinger is unmasked in a brutal fight, the public mistakes his suffering for a bold ruse—leaving him to reclaim his identity on his own terms. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated with eerie precision by Steve Ditko, this 1973 Marvel UK classic sees Spider-Man push through chaos and wild animals unleashed from the zoo, all while the cover by Jim Starlin and Mike Esposito captures the moment of shocking revelation.

Peter has the 24 hour flu when Doc Ock captures Betty Brant in hopes of luring Spider-Man into battle. Ock beats the under the weather web-head and unmasks him, but everyone thinks it is just Peter trying to be brave by impersonating Spidey. Once he has recovered, Spider-Man battles through the wild animals Ock has released from the zoo to take on old six-arms himself.
