“The War at Home: Part 7 of 7”

In "The War at Home: Part 7 of 7," Spider-Man returns from the final clash of the Civil War only to face a chilling new threat at home. With Peter’s family still in the crosshairs of the Kingpin’s sniper, the tension reaches a breaking point when Aunt May is struck by a bullet meant for Mary Jane. Written by J. Michael Straczynski and illustrated by Ron Garney, with inks by Bill Reinhold, colors by Matt Milla, and letters by VC's Cory Petit, this emotionally charged issue delivers a devastating turn in the ongoing saga. The cover by Ron Garney captures the moment’s heartbreak in stark, unforgettable detail.
