The Amazing Spider-Man vs. The Prodigy! #[nn]

In "Pull of the Prodigy," Spider-Man takes on a dangerous new threat in this 1976 Marvel classic, where a green alien from Intellectia, the Prodigy, spreads misinformation about sexuality to manipulate teens and abduct children for slave labor. Written by Ann Robinson and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito, the story follows Spider-Man as he investigates strange nighttime helicopter activity, leading him to a remote mountain mansion where the alien's dangerous ideology is broadcast live to the nation. The cover by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito captures the tension of the showdown, making this a standout issue in the series' early years.
