Collecting Bill Mantlo’s iconic run on Spectacular Spider-Man!
The Spectacular Spider-Man hits high gear! Bill Mantlo crafted a compelling, interwoven series of adventures in his second tenure on Spectacular. Pairing Spidey with the Black Cat as partner and love interest, Mantlo fused the crime drama of the Kingpin with larger-than-life villains like Doctor Octopus. The formula made Spectacular a page-turner powerhouse. It begins with the Kingpin hiring Boomerang, the killer that keeps coming back. Meanwhile, Cloak and Dagger wage war on drugs as the gangster Silvermane clings onto life in a new cyborg body. Then, when Doctor Octopus and the Owl vie to take over New York’s criminal underworld, total war breaks out in the city! Come see why “The Owl/Octopus War” is a saga that ranks among Spider-Man’s greatest.
