Title: Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man
Issue Number: 78
Release Date: May 1983
Highlights
- First appearance of Dannemora, and it's state prison
- Peter starts talking to himself about J. Jonah Jameson needing to change, and start paying up for his photos
- Peter considers dropping out of grad school, and also revealing his true identity to Black Cat
- Peter has lunch with Flash Thompson, Sha Shan, Harry Osborn, and Liz Allen, thinking it might be the last time he sees them
- Boomerang's cell is right across from Frank Castle's, AKA The Punisher, and the anti-hero is none to pleased to see the villain
- Peter drops off a check to Aunt May, tells Nathan Lubensky he's a good man, and heads on his way to what may be his last fight with Doctor Octopus - Even though we all know it's not
- Spider-Man tries to reveal himself to Black Cat, but she stops him, telling him to wait until he returns from battle with Doctor Octopus
- Black Cat keeps referring to Spider-Man as, "Lover" - Gets annoying fast
- A whole lot of build up, and no action
Oddities
- Spider-Man gets flowers from a florist with an I.O.U.
- Both Felicia's mom and the spirit of her dad refer to her as, "Daughter", as in, that's the name they call her by
- Boomerang is being taken through Dannemora State Prison, but he's in his villain costume, and not prison clothing
- At lunch with his friends, Peter and the gang all sit on the same side of a long table - I get it, it's so the artist could get everyone in a single panel, but it looks so goofy
- I think they're also blatantly trying to depict it as the last supper
