“War Garden!”

In "War Garden!", Spider-Man and Black Cat go on a high-stakes hunt for Dr. Turner and his team, leading to a shocking twist when Spider-Man uses Turner’s device to regain his powers—only to inadvertently strip Black Cat of hers. Meanwhile, Aunt May welcomes her new boyfriend, Willie Lumpkin, to a family dinner, adding a touch of warmth to an already tense day. Written by David Michelinie and brought to life by Erik Larsen’s dynamic art, with inks by Randy Emberlin and colors by Bob Sharen, this 1991 issue blends action and personal drama. The cover, penciled by Larsen and inked by Terry Austin, captures the moment’s intensity with striking precision.
