Strange #184
In "Si bêtes sont ces mortels !", Spider-Man and the Black Cat grapple with the tension between their growing romance and their opposing paths—one seeking redemption, the other embracing her criminal instincts. Written by Roger Stern and illustrated by John Romita Jr. with inks by Jim Mooney and colors by Bob Sharen, this 1985 issue captures their emotional clash with sharp character work and dynamic pacing. The cover by Jean Frisano perfectly frames the moment’s intensity, a 10 FRF comic from a pivotal year in the series.
In "Mort dans l'âme !", doctor Michael Twoyoungmen grapples with a painful divide between his scientific mind and the spiritual legacy of his people, a rift deepened when his wife falls fatally ill. As he races against time to save her, his relentless pursuit of a cure tests the limits of both medicine and faith.
In "Le droit chemin," Spider-Man grapples with the weight of his new relationship with the Black Cat, torn between wanting her to leave her criminal past behind and facing her resistance to change. As their conflicting ideals push them apart, a desperate attempt to stop her ends in a shocking leap—leaving Spider-Man to wonder if he’s lost her forever, only to later learn she’s been pardoned.
In "Promesses," Ben Urich faces a moral crossroads when the Kingpin exploits his wife’s longing for a better home to manipulate him into betraying his principles. Caught between loyalty to his family, his journalistic integrity, and his conscience, Ben must navigate a dangerous game where every choice risks everything he holds dear.
