Comics Corner: The Amazing Spider-Man 220

   

Title: The Amazing Spider-Man
Issue Number: 220
Release Date: September 1981

Highlights

  • Moon Knight is playing villain to infiltrate the syndicate
  • The role of secretary in the syndicate was just vacated by a death, and the position will be granted to the first person who steals $10,000,000 worth of goods, thus the contest is on, and several thugs are competing
  • The plan is for Moon Knight to join the contest, and win the position, which will in turn give him the names and addresses of every high ranking member
  • The syndicate changes the rules just as Moon Knight wins, stating he must prove his commitment to the underworld by bringing them the body of Spider-Man
  • A side story starring Aunt May
  • Side story features the fictional band The Shriekers
Low Points
  • Wait...Now that I think of it, this plot is rather stupid
  • No awesome villain makes an appearance
  • Story feels like a throw away, which is really disappointing for the flagship title of Spider-Man
Oddities
  • None
