Spider-Man: Spider's Shadow #4

Part four of Chip Zdarsky and Pasqual Ferry's five-part What If? series arrives wrapped in a cover by Phil Noto that stops you cold — a masked Spider-Man and a tearful young woman lean close in an almost-kiss, dark symbiote tendrils curling around them both against a deep crimson wash. The image is tender and ominous all at once, the kind of quiet emotional dread that makes you genuinely uneasy about where this alternate-reality story is heading.
