The Spectacular Spider-Man #122

Spider-Man in his sleek black costume squares off against an armored, green-faced villain firing crackling pink energy blasts — and the cover's speech balloon makes the stakes personal: "I want my son back — and no one will stop me!" Rich Buckler's cover art crackles with kinetic energy, setting up "Father's Night Out" as a clash driven by fierce parental desperation rather than simple villainy. It's a compelling 1987 entry in the Spectacular Spider-Man run, with Peter David scripting and a visually dynamic confrontation that promises more than a straightforward slugfest.
