The Toy Box: Issue 75

Title: Marvel Team-Up
Issue Number: 75
Release Date: November 1978

Highlights

First appearance of Ken Jorgenson, and the Rat Pack; Sparks, Stitches, and Strafe
Reference is made to The Amazing Spider-Man 123, and Power Man / Iron Fist 48
It's a story that honor's the risk that firemen (and women) take to fight fires and save lives

Low Points

While commendable that Marvel wanted to pay homage to fire fighters, it's not what I want from my Spider-Man comics
It's lacking any real villain or plot to call it a Spider-Man comic
Too much reality in the comic makes it difficult to escape the real world for a simply moment of entertainment
