“Still Crazy After All These Years”

In "Still Crazy After All These Years," the Scorpion, driven to the edge by the agony of his unremovable costume, launches a desperate assault on the Daily Bugle in a bid to destroy J. Jonah Jameson—only for Spider-Man to intervene. Written by Bill Mantlo and brought to life with dynamic art by Jim Mooney and Mike Esposito, this 1978 issue captures the raw intensity of a villain pushed beyond reason, with Terry Austin’s cover by Keith Pollard perfectly framing the chaos.
