Spidey Super-Stories #32

Spidey Sunday takes us back to the late 70s and the first time Spider-Man met Spider-Woman. The two-part story is a bit bonkers, following the basic formula of a super-hero misunderstanding when Peter and Aunt May arrive in London and Peter discovers a Spider-Woman is on a crime-spree. Suiting up, he tracks down and fights Spider-Woman until he discovers it’s not the same woman committing the crimes, and that an imposter is working for Doc Ock. Teaming up, the pair take down the fake, although Doc Ock gets away (along with any rationale for this bizarre scheme).

The last story in the comic picks up the thread of Spidey searching London for Doc Ock and teaming up with Captain Britain in a tale that plays on the odd relationship between the super-villain and May Paker and a fight on Wimbledon Center Court. The comic also offers a short team-up with Spidey and Fargo North, a one-page introduction to Captain Britain, a one-page origin of Spider-Woman, and the latest monthly awful joke.
