Spider-Man: The Gauntlet #3
In "The Irritable J. Jonah Jameson," Spider-Man’s latest encounter with the Daily Bugle’s famously irascible editor takes a sharp turn when Titus Purves, head of the prison’s Aryan Brotherhood, forces Adrian Toomes to build him a flying harness for an escape. With tension mounting and loyalties tested, the Vulture must decide how far he’ll go to protect his family—and whether his past choices will finally catch up to him. Written by Fred Van Lente and illustrated by Francis Portela, with colors by Chris Sotomayor and letters by Rus Wooton, this 2010 issue delivers a tense, character-driven story that keeps the stakes high. The cover, by Michael Lark and Jodi Wynne, captures the moment’s intensity with sharp, expressive detail.
