In "L'odeur de la mort," Mary Jane faces a personal crisis when she declines Peter's marriage proposal and travels to Pittsburgh, only to find her sister imprisoned. Spidey is forced into a brutal clash with a vastly upgraded Spider-Slayer robot, now under the control of the relentless Smythe. With Mary Jane pleading for help, Peter must choose between standing by the woman he loves and stopping a dangerous threat—only for Smythe to track him down, turning the journey into a high-stakes race across the city. Written by David Michelinie, illustrated by John Romita Jr. with inks by Vince Colletta and colors by George Roussos, this 1988 issue features a cover by Bob Layton.
