“The Death of Vermin, Part 3: Faces”

Spider-Man looms large over a crouching, monstrous Vermin on this striking 1993 cover — Sal Buscema's artwork capturing both the web-slinger's vigilant intensity and the feral menace of his opponent in one tightly composed image. Headlined as the conclusion to "The Death of Vermin," this issue promises a dramatic payoff to one of Spectacular Spider-Man's darker story arcs. With DeMatteis writing and Buscema handling both interior pencils and inks, this is a tight creative team delivering their vision at full force.
