“Fools...Like Us!”

In "Fools...Like Us!", Spider-Man confronts the enigmatic and ruthless Foolkiller, a vigilante who believes he's purging the world of stupidity. The hunt leads him to a shocking revelation: the villain is Greg Salinger, a former university acquaintance whose past has twisted into a deadly crusade. Written by Roger Stern and illustrated by John Romita Jr. with inks by Bob Wiacek, this 1982 issue blends psychological tension with the series' signature edge, all wrapped in a striking cover by John Romita Jr. and Frank Giacoia.
