“When the Bugle Blows”

Part of Marvel's 1989 "Inferno" crossover event, this issue of The Spectacular Spider-Man puts an unlikely duo front and center: Spider-Man and J. Jonah Jameson, fighting back-to-back against a swarming demon horde that closes in from every direction. Sal Buscema's cover captures the wild energy of the moment — a determined Jonah swinging what appears to be a pipe while Spidey hangs inverted on a web line, surrounded by a menagerie of snarling, clawing creatures. The cover also teases something significant in store for the Hobgoblin, making this a genuinely fun entry in one of Marvel's most chaotic crossover events.
