The Spectacular Spider-Man #143
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeSal Buscema's cover for this October 1988 issue sets up a tense three-way confrontation: a gun-wielding Punisher looms over a downed Spider-Man while a white-and-yellow costumed villain called the Persuader demands the kill. Titled "Deadline in Dallas," the story brings the Punisher in as a guest star, promising the kind of gritty hero-vs.-hero-vs.-villain tension that made late-'80s Marvel so compelling. Gerry Conway and Buscema were a well-matched team, and this issue looks like a satisfying showcase for both.
