Spider-Man Magazine #14
In "Carnival of Chaos!", Spider-Man swings into a chaotic scene at a film set, mistaking a staged purse theft for a real crime—only to discover the Shocker was just playing a role in a movie called *Mighty Man vs. the Shocker*. When the real Shocker arrives, furious that his moment in the spotlight was stolen, Spidey finds himself caught between two very different kinds of trouble. Written by Scott Proudfit and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by Marie Severin, this 1995 issue blends action and irony in a story that’s as playful as it is unpredictable. The cover, a vibrant, stylized spectacle by the Hildebrandt brothers and Wayne A. Murray, captures the frenzy perfectly.
