Spider-Man: Torment

Marvel's 2009 one-shot Spider-Man: Torment is a direct sequel to Todd McFarlane's iconic 1990s run, reuniting the artist-writer with the wall-crawler for a single, self-contained story. Featuring McFarlane's signature, hyper-detailed artwork and his take on a monstrous, supernatural threat, the issue revisits the gritty, shadowy tone he defined for Spider-Man. For fans of McFarlane's era, it's a potent, standalone return to a classic vision of the character.
