Strange #220
"La vie en violet" delivers a tense, character-driven twist in Strange #220, a 1988 French edition from Editions Lug. Written by Christopher Priest and illustrated by Erik Larsen, with inks by Art Nichols and colors by Julianna Ferriter, the story unfolds with Spidey tracking Daredevil through a drug den, only to collide with Matt Murdock at Aunt May’s—leading to a violent clash that’s far from what it seems. The cover, by Dave Ross, captures the mood of intrigue, as the mystery of the Rose and the Kingpin’s return unfold in a tale where loyalty and deception blur.
