Spider-Man's Tangled Web #14

The cover for this 2002 issue is a brilliant piece of design work by Dave Johnson — a weathered, torn Championship Wrestling promotional poster pinned to a brick wall, advertising a $10,000 prize to anyone who can last three minutes in the ring with Crusher Hogan at the Olympic Arena. The vintage halftone illustration of the hulking Crusher Hogan dominates the poster, flanked by carnival-style typography promising "Tag-Team Mayhem" and a one-night-only event. With Brian Azzarello and Scott Levy on writing duties and Giuseppe Camuncoli on art, Spider-Man's Tangled Web continues to deliver street-level storytelling with a flair that sets it apart from the usual web-slinging adventure.
