In "Only the Evil Return," a portly, bowl-cut figure with more than two arms prowls the city, setting the stage for the long-awaited return of the one true Doctor Octopus. Written by Tom DeFalco and brought to life by Steve Skroce’s dynamic art and Bud LaRosa’s sharp inks, this 1997 issue marks a pivotal moment in Spider-Man’s saga, with a cover by Skroce and LaRosa that captures the menace of the returning foe.
