“Shakedown”

Spider-Man leaps into action on this 1989 cover by Sal Buscema, swooping down toward Electro, who crackles with blinding electrical energy amid a field of rubble and explosions. A mysterious hulking silhouette looms in the background — flagged with a cheeky "Him, Too!" caption — while the cover teases that together they'll treat Spidey to "Electro Shock Therapy." Gerry Conway scripts the interior story "Shakedown," with art by Sal Buscema and Mike Esposito bringing the high-voltage chaos to life.
