“102 Uses For a Dead Cat”

Spider-Man's sleek black costume takes center stage in this 1986 Marvel anniversary issue, as the web-slinger squares off in a fierce, close-quarters clash against the savage Sabretooth — whose slashing claws have apparently done a number on that suit. The cover tagline says it all: Spider-Man is down to his last costume, and Sabretooth has just ruined it, making this face-off feel genuinely desperate. Rich Buckler's dynamic cover work captures both combatants mid-strike with real kinetic energy, setting the stage for writer Peter David's intriguingly titled interior story, "102 Uses For a Dead Cat.
