Title: Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man
Issue Number: 105
Release Date: August 1985
Highlights
- First appearance of Vince Granetti, Robert Sanchez Jr., and the NEVELL team; Mr. Norris, Mr. Edwards, Mr. Lloyd Sr., and Mr. Lloyd Jr.
- Janet Van Dyne, AKA Wasp is the "V" in NEVELL, standing in for her late father
- The men of NEVELL want to sell all stake ins Northeaster Shipping Company (NESC) to Consolidated Imports - Janet not only hold out, but tells them to sell it to her directly
- Granetti admits to Spider-Man that he killed Sanchez Sr., knowing full well the hero can't do anything about it
- Granetti hires Paladine to "deliver a message" to Janet - sell, to him, or all at NEVELL will die
- Janet is not at all intimidated, nor cares
- Reference is made to Avengers 251
- Spider-Man takes photos of the dead and burned up body of Robert Sanchez Sr., and sells them to the Bugle
- All buildup, and no resolutions - Hopefully the payoff in the next issue is worth it
Oddities
- Wouldn't taking photos of a dead and burned body at the time of the incident make Peter Parker a suspect for murder?
- Janet is told by the other members of NEVELL to be quite during the meeting, and go get them some coffee - which she does
