“Peter Parker, You Are the Spectacular Spider-Man!”

In "Peter Parker, You Are the Spectacular Spider-Man!", Peter faces a personal challenge when Debra Whitman’s psychiatrist seeks his help to address her belief that he’s Spider-Man—while Spider-Man himself tracks the Boomerang’s escape attempt and uncovers a new threat from the Owl, who’s plotting to take down the Kingpin’s empire with a risky alliance. Written by Bill Mantlo and drawn by Al Milgrom, with inks by Jim Mooney and colors by Bob Sharen, this 1982 issue blends psychological tension with high-stakes crime-fighting, all capped by a striking cover by Al Milgrom.
