Ultimate Spider-Man #74

Spider-Man finds himself ensnared in a tangle of his own webbing on Mark Bagley's striking cover for this third chapter of the "Hobgoblin" arc — a quietly tense image that suggests things aren't going the wall-crawler's way. Bagley's clean, dynamic linework captures the figure mid-struggle, limbs splayed against a cool blue-grey backdrop laced with web strands. Bendis and Bagley's 2005 Ultimate Spider-Man was reliably compelling storytelling, and this installment promises the arc's tension is only deepening.
