Ultimate Avengers vs. New Ultimates #3

Part three of six in the "Death of Spider-Man" crossover, this 2011 Marvel issue puts the tension front and center: a heavily armed soldier in tactical gear levels a rifle directly at the viewer, while a battered Spider-Man is caught in a targeting reticle behind him amid flames and debris. The cover by Leinil Francis Yu frames the conflict with striking clarity — hero and threat locked in a composition that makes the "Avengers vs. New Ultimates" subtitle feel very real. With Mark Millar writing and Sunny Gho's colors giving the chaos a vivid urgency, this mid-series chapter promises the kind of high-stakes superhero confrontation that defined Marvel's Ultimate line.
